I hope this is sarcasm, but I think I’m wrong. If this is a real comment then dividing competitions into men’s and women’s is done for, which means women are done competing in sports.

Well, aren’t you vindicated? I love it after the comments you’ve been getting. Full disclaimer: not American, not Brazilian.

I always thought that medals per capita is a much more sensible metric than just the no. of medals...

I love you :D

Thanks. It was a legit question, I’ve never been to an Anthropologie store, and I only have one maxi skirt, which is great, but the only thing I could justify buying in the last 5 years since I’ve discovered the brand. But I feel the same about every brand and have most clothes made by a seamstress, so I don’t…

Why isn’t it? O_o

That’s heart-breaking :( My parents only bought me Lego blocks and toy cars and stuff. I was a tomboy when I was a little girl, short hair included, and those were the toys that I wanted. I did get a few Barbies (if I remember correctly I had 2, or maybe 3) from my grandmas, but the only Barbie thing my parents bought…

I thought we all have implicit racial bias but to different extents. Which is why I said I do not consider myself *very* racist, but I know I am. Like a spectrum.

Trust me, mine didn’t. I’m Slovene.

Of course not, you are entitled to call me racist if you wish (I do not consider myself very racist and I do not consider Syrians a different race from me, since we share a similar colouring, but I do have racial bias, I freely admit to that) even though it’s not very polite. You insulted me by addressing me sweetie…

While I’m not. Shouldn’t you take the immigrants then, to satisfy karma?

I thought that’d be obvious - we = me and people who think like me. You don’t have to tell me not everybody thinks like me, that’s obvious from the fact the immigrants actually got in in such numbers; but I think I don’t have to tell you that not everybody thinks like you, either. I’m simply expressing my opinion…

Oh, look, another one last night (Ansbach - I’d better specify the place, the night is still young). That’s the third in three days. My evidence seems to be getting stronger, sadly.

OK, against the will of a large number of voters, then. It would be interesting to know what the result would be if they asked us, referendum-style.

So... are you Native American?

I wish I could take my first reply back because I know it’s going to be misunderstood. Let me try to explain better and have patience - English is not my first language.

Well, evidently they do. I also don’t have a case, only an opinion, and I don’t really care if people like it or not - it is what it is.

Sure we do. But we were used to our crime rate and we worked with it. Now we’ve been pressed against our will into something we don’t have the resources for. The immigrants need screening, guidance, schooling, financial help, mental health care etc. and we.cannot.provide.it. Not to 50,000, much less to 500,000 and…

It does not matter if it wasn’t terrorism. We (Europeans) weren’t afraid of opening our borders because of terrorism, we were afraid of crime. And crime it is.
