No. I am not being deliberately obtuse. I am not throwing a tantrum. I’m not upset, only confused. As I’ve mentioned, I’m autistic, and sometimes I am baffled by the moods and motives people ascribe to me or the ways they interpret things I say. This seems to be one of those times.

Look, I try very very hard to be polite and deferential on this site because I recognize that I’m a guest in this space and my goal is not to intrude. But seriously: what the hell are you talking about? When have I ever lectured you? When have I thrown my hands up and cried about a problem? Because from my POV I have

I only talk about it because I don’t see HOW to fix this kind of problem without identifying it and discussing the reasons for it.

White and black people are very segregated by design?

I make nearly $15 an hour and I’m on food stamps. And I’m in a “low cost of living” area which really isn’t anymore, since the oil boom & bust.

Turns out this guy’s dad was in fact a notorious bank robber. Must be that “thug” mentality passed down through the generations.

It’s definitely a fetish. He has never been quiet about how much he loves black cock (and yes that’s how he’d say it, too).

I would be unsurprised if he sees massive loss of life here as a net positive. I only doubt that even he is dumb enough to say so in public.

Wow. Great minds think alike?
