I mean in this clip, you seem to be fixating over the telling of the story around how many cars he was in, rather than the actual key message. How you can take it that personally that an unscripted chat with the audience went the way it went is pretty impressive.

There is no message. There is only agenda, built on liberal horse shit. Fuck him. Horrible person.
I take it back then, he definitely was pulled over ten times in ten different vehicles.

Re: Cop Who Murdered Philando Castile Acquitted
I think I have a very different perspective from you and Head, definitely. I just meant that, at least on the acknowledgement that there are race issues, we'd both go "yeah there are" and then nod. The fun of internet mickey-mouse debate is arguing with someone who doesn't agree with you, for the sake of thinking you're better than them. HMF is nice because I genuinely feel like it is valuable input from different sources and not just "ha, made you look stupid" most of the time. Not all the time, but most of the time. It stands apart for that sincerity. But I think on Race it has always been a non-starter. Hence why you can get Jason claiming the absolutely ludicrous statement that Trevor Noah, a mixed race South African who grew up in Apartheid South Africa, doesn't know about Racism. That is not miles away from telling a kid from Soviet Russia that they don't understand the negatives of Stalinist Communism. You cannot find anyone with a more clear experience with a straight face.zombie wrote:you don't think you and head have different takes on things? i've butted heads with you a couple of times, and we're both supposed to be batshit liberals.showa58taro wrote:It could be an interesting echo chamber.zombie wrote:the two of you, as an example, could have an interesting conversation on it, i'm sure?
Re: Cop Who Murdered Philando Castile Acquitted
It applies both ways. Foo and I could have a reasonable chat, you and Head would come in and start bickering.showa58taro wrote:It's the beauty and the curse of HMF. Everyone gets an equal say and right to post and direct the conversation. So yeah, Head and I could maybe have a reasonable chat about it, but it wouldn't be long before it'd be Foo and Jason involved pointing out that we were discussing a non-problem. And then we're back to my original point, you can't have a discussion if there's no acceptance of a problem.
It's better to acknowledge that neither side is going to bend, then assume your side is always correct.

Re: Cop Who Murdered Philando Castile Acquitted
Trevor Noah doesn't know shit about racism in America. He has lived here for five years and has used race-baiting as a springboard to making money and advancing his political career. He is a piece of shit. My mind won't change.

Nope. There is nothing constructive about a guy lying about being pulled over ten times in ten different vehicles. I mean eight times.

I will talk racism, I will acknowledge your points, I likely won't bend, but that is because I know that none of you are lying pieces of shit like this asshole who is spouting fake racism to advance his career.
Re: Cop Who Murdered Philando Castile Acquitted
if you don't think you're going to change minds, or at least show them a different perspective that they acknowledge as valid, and you, by your own admittance, will not either, then what is the point of discussion or debate here?Jason wrote:Blacks assault whites 200-1.

If race is involved in whatever you want to talk about, you might as well not say anything because your argument will be diminished, insulted, disregarded. The idea genuinely upsets some here to the point where it can't even be acknowledged at any point, ever. There's never going to be any meaningful conversation on race relations in America on this site ever. There's a lot of other things we can have interesting discussions on, that will never ever be one of them.
You want to talk about racism being an issue, let's put the real shit on the table and not this "Oh, dearie me. Black people get pulled over more often". Whether true or not, they should. They commit MORE THAN 50% of the murder in this country, even though they only make up somewhere between 11-15% of the population. Black-on-black crime is totally ignored, black-on-white crime is totally ignored. White-on-black crime will always make it to mainstream news, and at least half the time it's utter horse shit.

Re: Cop Who Murdered Philando Castile Acquitted
Do you think that it takes a decade for the US to start treating you like you're black or something? Strange man. I could get it if you didn't want to ascribe him the kind of insight I do given his experiences in both places, but the thing about Racism is that anyone can perceive it after any brief or long amount of time, as a basic fact of life. And you can't realy argue they don't know about it. They do, from their perspective. Noah's take on Racism isn't the same as Reginald D Hunter, Chris Rock, Eddie Murphy, or Barack Obama. They all have very different takes that they like to emphasize. But all of them are valid in my book. How that can be such a point of contention for you is very strange.Jason wrote:Trevor Noah doesn't know shit about racism in America.

That being said, if you want to bow out of the conversation, that's cool. Snowflakes can relocate to the freezer at any point if they so wish.

Institutional racism has existed in this country from the time slave owners first realized the friendship between black slaves and European indentured servants could become a political threat.

Based on no video, hardly any evidence, I said the cop should've gotten manslaughter.

We all have an open mind, but as far as "benefit of the doubt", we lean different ways and will always differ. I will always give a police officer the benefit of the doubt unless the evidence proves otherwise.

Again, lying scumbag. Lowly piece of shit exploiting fake racism for money. My mind won't change.
