Now, if _Huey_ were to start some\* GD\* thread about it, I’ll be right on that. That post just made me happy. 🙂 ---

I generally don’t respond to octo (hey, who can keep up?) but… > [@octopus](#): > > And if Huey really wanted to debate a possible link between autism and inbreeding in the white population why not open it in GD where a fruitful debate could be had? Because the discussion would be approximately as fruitful as past race/IQ debates. i.e. not at all. Fruitful discussions of race/IQ start off with a discussion of mean and variance. Also statistical variants of the same. That doesn’t happen here: instead we get veiled and bigoted bad faith nonsense. It pisses me off. ETA: Ya, Dibble’s last post was funny and on point. ---

> [@Measure\_for\_Measure](#): > > Turnabout is fair play would be bullshit in Liberia, or in a hypothetical country run by African Americans. > > Put another way, it’s never ok to be racist as defined by “Prejudice+power”. But I’m defending ironic prejudice as part of a presentation of the nature of ongoing white supremacy. In the pit. Remember the context: most posters here fail Racism 101. (I will only claim to score a B-.) In other words, _Advocatus Diaboli_? ---

> [@Guinastasia](#): > > In other words, _Advocatus Diaboli_? More like kidding on the square. Devil’s advocates push legit points to provide a full airing of the issue. That’s not what Huey is up to. Huey’s shtick is more of a performance piece, for a partially clueless audience. The other aspect is that the nature of white supremacy isn’t easy to describe. 5’ 7" relates that here: [https://twitter.com/absurdistwords/status/996892117439012866](https://twitter.com/absurdistwords/status/996892117439012866) Not the most persuasive evidence admittedly, but I’m new to this. ---

This has gotta be a letdown for the **Brickster**. Can’t even keep his own Pit thread, without somebody else grabbing the spotlight. No fair! as we used to say when things were simpler. Also reminded of hearing an interview with Samuel L. Jackson, about his days with an all black theatre troupe back in The Day. He called it something like the Scare Whitey Theater Company. Went with Ex1 to a local version. As we left, I said it was preaching to the choir, but the choir has to pay to get in. It wasn’t funny. I have that certified, not funny. And the beat goes on. ---
