Warren Zevon Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Lots of racists here. Multiple posters have posted pepe the frog and other racist iconography over the years. The sarcasm when race is brought up is beyond the pale. A former poster called this place #BillsChan - right on the money. IMO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't ask to be born in a racist society. But it's our responsibility.

That describes your life, basically. You know how in The Matrix the one guy is a traitor and goes back because even though he knows the steak is fake, he prefers the lie? That's you, rejecting all of the obvious information in your face. You ever hear about how it's lonely be a genius? That's how it feels for someone with an average IQ and basic learning skills that didn't stop in middle school to post on PPP and interact with the cavemen here.

So do you think that I think that racism doesn’t exist? You have ideas. None of them are original but they are ideas nonetheless. You come to a politics forum with these ideas. Fantastic, let’s discuss and debate them on their merit. But no you storm in and before you even introduce yourself you look at the room and yell: “YOU’RE ALL A BUNCH OF RACIST!!” Not the best way to endear yourself to the crowd. So instead of us welcoming you to have a discussion we all look at you as a belligerent blowhard. So you ***** this up from the get go. Good job Greg. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think we were ever going to get along if I'd come in that way? Better to just get to the point, don't you think? Of course, if you agreed from the beginning, you'd have maybe just said "Hold up bro! We're with you! ***** racists!" instead of "Hold up bro! Pretty sure racism isn't that big of a deal!"

No you haven't answered him, and you have never answered when I asked if you were racist. But by your very posts and actions, you have proven that you are. Don't bother responding, you see I hate racists like you and I won't reply to your questions you are sure to reply with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
