Maybe not, fuckwad, but I'm talking to you.

The explanation is confusing and seems to contradict the screencap. That's the only point being made. Relax.
A man who has trouble dealing with emotions isn't exactly a rare bird. But who knows! The system does produce weird kids from time to time.
And I'm not challenging you. Your opinion is perfectly valid. I seek only to enlighten, not to change minds or proclaim one form of childrearing as superior to another, since God knows that horse race is played out enough as it is.
Well, I'm sure these people you don't know appreciate your assumptions about their values and opinions about the manner in which they choose to raise their children, whom you also don't know. Personally I'm not one to play that game, since it's really easy to throw stones back, and Lord knows modern childrearing is…
The Wehrmacht slaughtered hundreds of thousands of civilians en masse, including women and children. The bashed babies' heads against walls. They stole everything that wasn't nailed down. The raped every female in sight. They ran brothels full of sex slaves. This wasn't the work of bad apples that were subsequently…
If that's how you want to put it, I won't stop you. I don't think it meaningfully changes anything that I've said, though.
Yep, basically. $1,000 is less than chump change for the majority of our families. You could throw a scotch glass during Parents Weekend and hit three dads wearing cufflinks that cost more than that.
Again, you're perfectly welcome to that opinion. I'm not seeking to make any value judgments on these people. Like all human beings, they are fallible and not above reproach. However, they could do far worse than send their baby to us. The school where I work is a wonderful environment for a child. It's safe,…
You're certainly free to that opinion. My point wasn't so much to argue a point of view as to put you in their shoes. Sending one's child(ren) away for 2/3rds of the year is not a decision made lightly. You are actually fairly privileged in that you have the means to send your kids away but the time to keep them at…
Well, they certainly outsource a lot of what one might consider the "grunt work." Put in this way: On average, I'd say your classic prep school kid spends about four months per year with mom and dad. That's not to say they aren't in constant communication; the days of a single shared payphone in the dorm hallway are…
Yeah, I'm gonna go ahead and guess that there's a little bit more to your story than you're letting on. I've heard Stormfront has a presence on ARMA, maybe they'd take you in.
I teach at a very exclusive, selective prep school in New England. Tuition runs over $50k a year. These are the children of Fortune 500 CEOS, head coaches of national sports teams, old-ass families who have had untold millions for so long they barely remember where it originally came from. Private jets, personal…
If you seriously believe that the army of Nazi Germany didn't strictly adhere to the stated values of the Nazi Party (two of which were white supremacy and anti-Semitism), then I've got a bridge in New York to sell you. And if you think the Holocaust was the only horrific, unforgivable crime the Nazis committed, I'll…
No, kid. You don't get to play those games with the Nazis. If you have a problem with it you can go hang with some skinheads under a bridge somewhere, because literally no one else in civilized society will want you.
No one's saying change it. No one's saying censor it. At worst they're calling it racist, People are allowed to have opinions different than you. People are allowed to think that an image of a white man treating a frightened-looking POC like furniture is inherently racially charged. And if you think that people…
Why are people not allowed to have reactions to things? Why are we not allowed to talk about those reactions? Any discussion about something like this is inherently useful because it's a sharing of viewpoints. Ideally, people come away from it with enhanced viewpoints and a greater appreciation of difference.
What creeps me out me is that you guys are so angry - like, seemingly violently angry - that people are bringing up the mere fact that this is inarguably a provocative image. Like, we're not even allowed to talk about it without getting called overly sensitive politically correct pussyvaginas by people like you. Why…
First of all, the whole point of the article isn't that the image is or is not racist. It's that the image, obviously designed to be provocative, could easily be construed as such, especially since we have basically no context whatsoever for it.
"I chanted the official name of the Nazi war machine in order to be hilarious and edgy and the mods told me to get fucked! Racism!" I'm hoping you're just a really excellent troll because the idea of people like you actually existing in the world makes me nervous. Honest to Christ, "anti-fascist fascism"? How can you…
