Aye. It’s why I don’t even bother. I usually try to give everyone their due, and not let their past discussions influence me. But this commenter has a pattern, and the kinja regulars are either aware of it, or picking up on it. No need to justify anything to a person who so readily argues in bad faith for the express…

Just because what you are saying, now, happens to coincide with what other are saying, now, doesn’t mean it’s of any importance. It’s only a matter of argument before you descend into the nonsensical, hypocritical bullshit that you are well-known for.

Like anyone gives a shit what you think, comrade.

Yes! This!

No.

Can’t say I’m familiar with those stories, or that person, I’m afraid.

Honestly, that would be the ‘right’ thing to do, along with calling the cops.

Yep. This is a moral failing of every person who agrees with this childish shit.

Figures.

I know what context is, and I’m not confused. It seems maybe you are? The ‘same shittiness’ I’m referring to is ‘doing dubious shit in order to get what you want, rather than appealing through the established channels’.

Reality begs to differ. But, again, good luck with your great idea™ about doing the exact same shittiness in reverse. I’m sure it’ll all work out perfectly, like when Tennessee cut all that funding and private citizens are expected to pick up the slack (that’s how society should work, right?).

If ‘exposing’ racists (who are regularly exposed) is the epitome of your intentions, at the expense of representing your constituents via established procedure (and let’s remember that when the GOP rams dumb shit down people’s throats, using sly fuckery - turnabout being fair play and all), then I suppose so. Congrats…

Well, look where eye-for-an-eye got them. Keep banging that drum Hammurabi.

It’s always shitty to do anything out of spite. Passing legislation to spite a city is never going to be a good thing.

How are you still not getting this? Watch the fucking video that was linked to you by two different people. It even has closed captioning (auto-generated) in case you’re in a spot where listening to audio is difficult.

Nah, you can miss all of us with that “why don’t you stand up for these poor folks” bullshit[...]

As a DirecTv installer for East Texas, it was always hilarious to me how much directions changed between urban and rural areas. It was a perfect gradation.

Whoops! “Chose” is a hard word to use in this instance. I agree that the US is modernizing, and its workforce has to modernize too, but you know there are extenuating circumstances.

Oh, it’s not the reasonable POV I’m worried about. It’s the tone-deaf analogy comparing the racist whites bitching about the progress of POCs to the reasonable POCs bitching about the progress of racist whites (at the expense of POCs).
