That you have not seen something does not mean it has not been shown.

Nor is Larry's insistence that something is racist proof that it is.

Nor is endless wrangling about it going to change your minds.

If Larry sees racism, rather than a reasoned difference of opinion, when (I) some people disagree with him, I agree minds will not be changed. I can't change that deeply ingrained POV. 

And if others here believe they can't disagree with someone else for fear of charges of racism or any other kind of bias, that is a pretty sad commentary.

And one I do not subscribe to.

And your inability to concede that you might be in error is part of the problem, Banks.

That coming from you is beyond funny.

I could be wrong on several things, but my views on race and equality and racism is not one of them.

Irony = Bankshot.

I figured you had lied when you said you would let the other topic drop.

When, in the 20 some years we have been posting with him, has he EVER let a topic drop?

Boz once again you got it wrong.

Josh did not want to answer some pertinent questions I had regading his banning of me. He did apologize and said he was wrong.

i wanted to know why he did what he did.

But Josh would not address the core issue and he wanted to move on.

So we did.

Except he began his snarky attacks on other matters.

It was Josh's passive aggressive bullshit.

He did not move on.

He did not drop the matter.

But thanks for playing boz.
I am sorry, you are currently involved in eight running feuds on this forum where you behave like a self-righteous asshole unable to either admit error or let the matter go. That is the forums limit. If you wish to start a new one you are going to need to let one of the existing feuds drop.  Please keep me up to date.

He can't even admit that it is possible for him to make an error on matters of race or racism.

Must be hard to be one of the only three perfect white men on the planet. (Ham and Ward are the other two.)

Well, to be frank, the Arizona pinons are inferior to New Mexico's.

Brandon,  huh?

 I am now referring to Ward in all future posts as Chewbacca.   However,  since Chewie now argues almost entirely on opinion polls,  rather than the substantive factual points at issue,  I doubt I will get much chance to use the new moniker. 



My posts only contain facts.
That pisses you off the most.

Fact is that Trump's poll numbers were worse than President Biden's at this stage of his time in office.

Thought you should know.

The Council of Woke's delegate from Gosar feels he needs to add his sand to Elba's sand box.

You or your sand are not needed in a matter you have no real interest in.

I'm sure Larry and I will work out our universe of agreements and disagreements.

Its what adults do or try to do.

I'm less certain of me and Josh.

But I find it hilarious you feel you need to add your 2 scents.

Perhaps you should pound Sonoran sand.

That should keep you occupied in a job you're qualified for.

As always all the best

Larry what you do is play the race card over and over again in our disagreements over the years.

Racism was not and is not a factor in my disagreeing with you.

I thought you were wrong and I told you why.

Was racism a factor when we agreed on the other 90% of issues, or was I clear-eyed and rational?

Perhaps you should examine your own prejudices before blaming others for them.

or don't.

beyond that, best of luck

Over the years you have said racist shit again and again and I called you on it and you say I am playing the race card.

Saying playing the race card over and over is racist as fuck.

That you will not acknowledge what I tell you and in fact tell me I need psychiatric help is racist as fuck.

What Larry is really saying is...

You will have to pry that race card out of his cold, dead hand!


Special Victims Unit has now been dispatched.

Fuck you.

No one does victimhood better than straight white men.

Ask Sen. (fascist fist pump) Hawley.

That's racist, Larry!

Btw, Larry, we are still waiting in that list of ACCOMPLISHMENTS from your Squad friends.


Having trouble finding someone to research it for you?

Hammy is so slow he is growing moss.

Turtles whoosh right by him.

Hamy needs to tell me what to do in order to enhance his self esteem.

Your self esteem would grow, if you'd back up your assertions occasionally.

How are those ACCOMPLISHMENTS of the Squids coming?

You know, things they've actually gotten done in Congress.

Still waiting, genius.

It seems I've hurt Josh's and his strawman's feelings.

LMAO

No Josh I'm hardly perfect.

But I feel perfectly entitled to ask how my debates with Larry are racist.

And when the only answer from Larry is "because" really doesn't satisfy the issue.

Further if my alleged "racist" manner was evident the overly engaged Elba Council of Woke would be all over it.

But not a peep.

Because the evidence was not there.

I don't deal with a lot of white guilt.

As I don't feel guilty, as I did not commit the crime charged.

But I sense you do feel guilt.

Perhaps you should deal with it.

Have a pleasant day.

Welp, I'm a "Faith and Flag Conservative".  Looks like I misled people over the years.   My bad.

Haha!   You seem fairly moderate/liberal, so I would think it reasonable to question their algorithm.

Something's wrong with it.

Mine came out as:

Stressed Sideliners hold a mix of conservative and liberal views and are the least politically engaged typology group. Generally disconnected from politics and the two major parties, they vote at lower rates than most other typology groups. About four-in-ten live in lower-income households, and they are the group most likely to describe their personal financial situation as only fair or poor.
Stressed Sideliners are split evenly between the Republican Party and Democratic Party..

The rest of the description was equally false.

Nothing fit.

The Pews fucked up.

BTW it was also visible in Facilitats posting.   Or does he also not appear?  How many are in your Iggy box,  Chewbacca?
11 and counting

Did the media arm him, send him out into the streets, and then buy him a beer?

Uh ..nope!
