    Actually, I was serious. Its ridiculous to judge people based on partially understood comments that can't be elaborated on. Go ahead and assume I'm lying, I know how it goes. One day you'll realize how stupid this all is, people have opinions on things it doesn't make them good or bad. I'm not harming anyone, that

    Yeah you sound pretty healthy. Take it easy.

    "a man who believes in 19th century race science and thinks rape doesn't exist."
    The compulsion to exaggerate - care to speculate on the psychological basis for this?

    Yeah, genetics and phrenology. There you go. Just learn nothing then pretend its all a big mystery.

    Genetics are a myth.

    OK thanks. I'm sure you're a good person who just has some different opinions than myself. Judging people's character on a few opinions, especially about a scientific topic that is hardly objective truth, is a very bad habit.

    Yeah, pretending. While the country isn't racism free, its a huge red herring and wildly overplayed in the political arena. The problem with the race discussion is that we pretend all people and groups are the same, so any differences in outcomes *must* be because of racism or some other oppression. Its insulting

    The problem is I used to be you - well not quite as messed up but definitely struggling - I have some idea of how your brain works. You feel bad, you need enemies, you think your opinions make you one of the good guys.
    Just consider how your non-stop s*it-posts look from the outside.

    Haha recognizing the NBA is 70 percent black is now racist, ergo making someone the scum of the earth.
    That said, do any of you ever hold out on the idea that you MIGHT be wrong about something? Ever been wrong before? I was just as gullible on race before I started reading about genetics and evolution

    OK, fair enough. I find yours to be a very shallow position, but nothing wrong with that. Have a good one.

    Who said one race is inherently superior? I'm guessing it has nothing to do with that, this is your translation. This is how it works - they say one thing, you hear another, and vice versa. Maybe give them the benefit of the doubt that they are people with experiences and perspectives that led them to think a

    Heh, racist is no longer offensive, one of those things that only hurts if you don't know yourself.
    Anyway, just asking. I know people don't really like to get into the details and would rather just make vast blanket accusations.

    One opinion someone has that you may or may not accurately grasp out of makes someone the scum of the earth? What if someone thinks black people are better at basketball, is that racist? Does that make someone scum of the earth? What if someone tries to explain the extremely disproportionate number of Nobel Prizes

    We "need to know" they exist so we can feel superior and pretend there are huge numbers of racists in America.

    I look at Reddit everyday and never come across any of this stuff. You have to *try* to find it.

    Group of few losers nobody would have ever heard about are brought into headlines so we can point and laugh….but instead what happens is some people can't keep it in perspective and start assuming there are loads of people like this, start extrapolating this position to the rest of their political enemies. Everyone

    I like how people conjure up rationalizations for the misanthropy or horrible attitudes. Probably why politics has become such a popular spectator sport to begin with…they give so many of us exactly what we need to sleep at night

    Bee rips others for only telling half of the story as she only tells half of the story. Fascinating!

    ******* idiotic.

    ******* idiotic.
