it's great that some of you guys are finally looking these things up, but don't assume that everybody is as ignorant of history and how it relates to modern life as the cloud who howl in support of bigotry and trolling.

Who was the one who needed examples of white supremacy again?

If you are as yet unaware of what white supremacy is or how it functions, ask for help instead of making assumptions and lashing out.

Wow, this respectful attitude really does win hearts and minds!

Thanks for explaining it to me. I'm now fully enlightened.

"this respectful attitude really does win hearts and minds!"

love to break it to you: your notion that respect counters bigotry is not rooted in fact.

it's consistently amazing the sense of holmesian entitlement one can sow and reap by making entirely groundless assumptions about others based on your own lack of information and then straining your shoulder patting yourself on the back over ypur capability to imagine.

none of what you think happened, happened.

you fantasized a hearty, researched conversation between your narrative and your own assumptions, while ignoring the available contradicting information.

You've already proven you're not worth listening to.

I'm not reading all that.

I imagine you thought you were quite clever imagining this fantasy scenario and coming up with the most obnoxious way to describe it? Or did you fail to mention this was supposed to be self-descriptive?

In short,

"patting yourself on the back over ypur capability to imagine."

Yes, that was about you.

You can do better than "no you", and I'm not the guy you were responding to, sorry

Don't beat yourself up, this community is a mess with that, troll as the mod.

most people here are just looking for someone to yell at.

"If Republicans can fuck things up, then I'm going to fuck things up too"

it's a turd of a political opinion, but it is the float most Americans are clinging to.

from the meme on down.
