    Nope! I'm a racist if I view it as a qualification. Nothing wrong with being happy our country has made enough progress on race relations to select a minority president.

    Funny thing is the people calling black people monkey's are the same people who do not believe the image I just posted. Honestly I think in the back of their minds they know evolution is true.

    Um in a thread about Racism Godwin's law will most definitely happen. Honestly my biggest fear right now is the similarities between the 1930's National Socialists and the Tea Party Republicans.

    Also the irony here is pretty thick.
    Sorry, you don't just get to quote a few lines out of a post, make a smart comment, and act as if you are in the right. It doesn't work like that. Either fight his points with the power of logic and reasoning, or, if you are incapable of doing so then bow to his intellectual superiority and shut the hell up. I am tired of seeing one liners everywhere and emotional outbursts that place more importance on trying to ridicule the opposition than reaching the truth. If you can't find it within yourself to stand up and argue properly for what you believe in, don't bother.

    This is an emotional subject, and most people in this thread have proven they are incapable of separating their emotions from rational thought, and thus the acquisition of knowledge and truth is rendered highly unlikely. Even I myself in my previous post allowed my frustration to almost overcome the point I was trying to make. When are you people going to learn that getting one over on the opposition is not a victory, but a mutual gain of knowledge as a result of increased perspective arising from a civil argument is. It is far too often necessary to reduce onself to this level just to try and get through to you in the hopes of bringing you up to the realms of logical reasoning.

    I actually do get to pick and choose what I respond to. Maybe you should save some of your rage for the guy comparing poor people to zoo animals instead of complaining about how I'm not meeting such claims in sufficiently rational debate.

    I know it's a just another ploy to make the right less appealing to those coming of political age.
    I have family all over the south, I currently live in Los Angeles, when I visit my family in the South I noticed about 10-15% of the people where openly racist, often right in front of the people they disrespected. Now for a bit of perspective, here in LA I see open Racism about once ever year. It usually is a white guy with a southern accent hating on a Chicano, and it always seems to be in Chatsworth.
    (Side note Chatsworth California is where 90% of your porn comes from, and is also the highest population of Neo-Nazi's in California.)

    It was the same reason why Californians loved Reagan and Nixon. ... Oh yah the two Republicans who carried California. Just saying when a person is President and they have something similar to you you feel happy. Clinton was a Red Neck from Arkansas are you going to say that the People in Arkansas where not happy when he became President? How about Bush and all the happy white billionaires?

    Spare me your speech on how you are entitled to respond to anyone how you wish. If you wish to contribute to a discussion on something on a scale such as this, then provide more than simple one liner responses involving attempts to defame the character of your opposition rather than tackling the point itself. I don't care what he said before, you responded to his post with emotion and no reason, just as you did to mine. You tried to paint me as some raging poster, how tiresome.

    Don't you understand that understanding him better equips you to reach the truth? You cannot effectively fight an enemy you don't understand, and who knows, maybe upon understanding your enemy and reaching out with the hand of reason a mutual arrival at the truth can be achieved. The point is you have to try instead of fighting some holy crusade all the time. Stop obsessing over battle, because there are far more effective and peaceful ways to achieve victory.

    At the very least, acknowledge that dismissing someone abruptly and insultingly will achieve nothing, even though you feel it is your duty to get all aggressive against the opposition of what you believe in. There are things that are more important than ourselves as individuals, we cannnot let our emotions get in the way of achieving the most beneficial outcome possible for mankind.

    Believe me, there is something to be learned from what he said, whether you agree with the principles he stands for or not.

    Actually it is always better to remove the unnecessary bits of a post so as to avoid the TL;DR problems. Remember we live in the post ADHD era. If you can make your point quickly and smartly people will read it. If you quote a whole post and complain about each point most people will just ignore your post.

    WOW you didn't just call him 'Entitled' and make a bunch of rules of how to post on a forum? You are quite full of your self aren't you. I think you need to change your avatar to something that fits you better.

    Yes whites in America are still racists in parts of the South East and Midwest. We have a popular political movement filled with white pride folks. That is what this thread is about.

    Except the post Wells was responding to was just as emotional, if not moreso. Why didn't you comment on that, instead?

    Seriously... Just stop going off topic.

    It doesn't matter how Wells, or anyone else, replies to a quote or someone else, everyone is entitled to respond how they want, as long as it doesn't break MMO-Champiom's rules.

    Remain on topic. Thanks.

    He responded to a carefully and thoughtfully constructed post with a smartass comment, I was referring to that much more so than what he quoted. My point is that by doing so nothing is achieved, as demonstrated by his replies to me as well. His stance is irrelevant, because he has proven he is incapable of discussing something honestly and intellectually.

    What people need to realise is that what they think they know is not necessarily the truth. The truth is an elusive prize to be sought out with honesty and rationality and more often than not, cooperation even amongst seemingly opposing forces. It is not priviledged knowledge, it is not acquired without a long and strenuous battle, and no amount of good intentions will provide it. Overconfidence and self-righteousness gives the illusion of truth, but all it is is an ideal masquerading as truth.

    I believe it is one of the greatest quests man can have, to seek out the real truth with courageous honesty, and I cannot stand anyone that gets in the way of that goal, such as people who have nothing more to contribute than quips and so-called witty responses.

    Edit - Have it your way Majad, I withdraw from this topic.

    Really? Did you really just go there? So non Americans on this forum shouldn't be allowed to participate to discussions concerning an American issue?
    I don't care about it myself since I consider it a non-issue, but I don't see how people outside of the US can't have a valid opinion on the subject.

    I noticed.

    As someone who is visually the Aryan dream, I really have grown to hate white people. Because they will slip into racism in-front of me because they think I am 100% white. Frankly I am proud of both my German ancestors and my Jewish ones.

    No having an opinion on the topic and talking about it is fine and welcome, derailing the tread with complaints about how a person posts their opinions is not. And when you do this and have no stake in the argument you are the worst type of troll.

    So mister troll please stay on topic.

    Do you have any idea how much nonsense is in your post? Unless they are saying "yay we got the black man not the cracker" or "fuck you cracker romney" not it's not racist to celebrate the candidate you wanted. Is it racist for whites to celebrate Obama or any other race? To think that blacks can't celebrate Obama without being racist in of itself is a ridiculous notion.

    I said I would refrain from further posting but I cannot resist. A forum ban is well worth what I am about to say. How dare you speak of trolls as if your words are so sacred. Look at what you just said. You are just as full of hatred as anyone else you claim is a bigot.

    I am not interested in forum rules, I don't know what gave you the impression that I was. The fact that you think I actually care about the over-zealous moderation of this board is proof enough to me that you missed my point entirely. I have no desire to cause offence to anyone, but make no mistake of this - I have zero regard for the rules of this forum, because I have my own code of conduct that doesn't involve shying away from difficult issues and spamming sanctimonius rehtoric in response to difficult challenges and questions. Should the two conflict and I get banned, so be it, I am not concerned - also, I do not seek to censor anyone, I only challenge the motivations and credibility of people who resort to smart comments that give no actual insight.

    Above all else, you should realise that I am not putting this amount of effort into my post here to antagonise anyone. I am trying to find some way in this sea of chaos of gaining some knowledge and insight. Breaking forum rules and insulting people is not something I seek to do, and if people think that is what I am trying to do then you misunderstand me greatly, but I am afraid you are the one has just offended my senses with your latest two posts.

    You just posted a picture congratulating me on being a "douche-bag", why? because you disagree with me? You didn't provide a counter-argument, you didn't fight me with logic, all you did was post a silly picture. Then you somewhat ironically quoted my location (funnily enough it is not the first time this has happened) as if it were relevant to anything. Not only that but you suggest my entire opinion is irrelevant simply because I do not reside in America. Of course there is a comment about how arrogant I am and how I am not worthy of a "John Lennon" avatar. If I were insecure enough to feel the need to defend myself as a person to you no doubt I would become just another mindless flaming idiot, but instead I invite you to look at what you posted and then come back to me and honestly say that your post was not as ignorantly dismissive as the posts you claim to combat.

    It amuses me that you can freely admit to approaching hatred for white people, and you will be neither infracted 'nor villified for it, while I stand here with a post I have tried to construct intelligently will be taken as off-topic or worthless shit that will probably get me banned by a moderator that spends no time trying to comprehend what I've said. There is more to being virtuous than meets the eye, remember that.
