It’s not boredom, it’s cognitive dissonance.

How many times do I have to tell you the same thing? You say it everytime you refuse to accept that what your parents did was abuse.

Sure, you can go on being a hypocrite if you want.

Just don’t be surprised by all the people who rightly continue to point out that you ARE IN FACT saying it’s ok to hit children.

Hitting a child with a belt IS abuse. Full stop. No exceptions.

You don’t seem to be able to come to grips with the fact that they are not.

once again, for the people with poor reading comprehension, I never said it was ok for my parents to hit me,

The only thing I’m hell bent on is being truthful and opposing damaging ideas to society.

Hitting a child with an object is abuse. Even when your parents do it. That’s why you have to report it, and if you can’t understand that basic fact, you really should not be in the position you are in. You go through the motions…

What does race have to do with any of this? Do different races have different rules and standards of behavior?

The bottom line id you can’t have your cake and eat it too. You can’t try and claim you are “not saying hitting children is ok” while excusing your parents behavior.

First off, I think it’s ridiculous of you to get all upset at someone for being factual about your parents. I got into it because of that. Although I do care about being being honest and truthful even with themselves, I care more about you going off on someone for being factual and correct because you can’t handle…

Uh, I never said it was ok for my parents to hit me, it was misguided and based on their upbringing.

My ‘sensitive’ reaction diminishes it as something like im being irrational.

can you cut and paste where I said hitting kids was ok? like verbatim?

She literally said herself she didn’t know if it was despite or because of.

Where on this planet do you think ANY wait staff is paid 10 to 15 an hour?

No one is going to lace your weed with PCP, that would be giving you free drugs. No one wants to do that.

I’ve seen delivery for sure.

Listening doesn’t mean I am going to agree with them in the end. Other than the fact I don’t agree, what makes you think I am not listening?

And the blame for that rests on the people denying them that ability, not on the people living their lives how they want with regard to borrowing from other cultures.

I get that what you point out is an issue. I don’t agree that means using ideas from other cultures is wrong or a problem.

Not sure exactly what “that”you are referring to, but I doubt you care. Sorry people with different opinions than you exist in the world and dare to voice them. That’s not going to change.

What do you think I need to learn? I know your position, again, I don’t AGREE with it. It’s not a matter of intelligence, although I see that turning it into that allows you to vent your anger without having to have a real conversation.

No.
