Not surprising to see you flee once it’s been pointed out, with actual cites, that you did the exact same thing you criticized me for doing. Sure, you massively mischaracterized what I said (or, perhaps more likely, you lied about it), but you did it too. Because you’re a lying hypocrite.

So Resolved: damuriajashi is a lying, lazy hypocrite who does exactly what he accuses others of doing.

At least it was resolved that he is **also** a racist. One item that showed that was his doubling down (quadrupling down and more) about not seeing anything whatsoever wrong about using woke as an insult. A racist just has glee about insulting minorities that he assumes continue to use the word.

Another was his disparaging of Hispanics and their intelligence. I would not have complained much if he was just disparaging my intelligence (and to lie about what other posters do think about that too), but it is clear that he does that with all Hispanics when totally ignoring the conditions Hispanics and blacks have to usually deal with when the subject is education.

The forensic term “Resolved:” is generally used to indicate a position that its proponent intends to defend in the ensuing argument. Sticking “Resolved:” on a random collection of insults that you toss out immediately before running away from an argument doesn’t make them more persuasive.

I got a chuckle out of the misused word by the smartest man on the Dope.

Yup. I admit, my comment was a bit tongue-in-cheek.

Not to mention that the sole Moderator down here _has been reading the thread_. How could the smartest man on the Dope not realize that?

If this is your way of admitting that you were wrong in how you characterized my post in which I mentioned my family, and wrong in providing even a small bit of rhetorical aid to DA’s lies about me, then I accept your gracious apology. 😉

Sorry, not that either. I still think that part of your post was a low blow for GD.

Well that’s dumb. I didn’t say it for credibility, or to be a low blow, but to demonstrate why this is personal for a lot of people (and for me in particular). In the same way DA has talked about why it’s personal for him (I quoted 2 examples of this already). It wasn’t an attack - it was “here’s why it’s important to me - even if this doesn’t apply to you”.

> One of the tenets of critical race theory is that nothing happens (good or bad) to minorities unless it also serves the interests of whites. It is probably more accurate to say that nothing happens for the benefit or detriment of politically weak groups unless it is for the benefit of politically powerful groups.

I don’t think this is right. You appear to be describing (poorly) the interest-convergence thesis, which is not necessarily an essential part of critical race theory.

These threads get a lot funnier and a lot less irritating/enraging when you block the people in question, don’t they?

Maybe that was your intention, but it didn’t come across to me that way in context.

“You’re satisfied with a great school with virtually no black and Hispanic kids. I’m not. That’s the difference. _Maybe it’s because **you** don’t have black or Hispanic kids in your friends or family_ and I do.”

“_I’m just assuming someone with a lot of close friends and family who are black or Hispanic would be upset_ by a top-notch school in a very diverse area like NoVA that had almost zero black and Hispanic students. I find that unacceptable.”

It came across as ‘I’m guessing you don’t have Black/Hispanic friends or family, because if you did you wouldn’t take that position’. I see these excerpts as _ad hominem_ remarks much like ‘if you had common sense you wouldn’t take that position’.

Okay, I’ll try to improve my phrasing next time.

But DA didn’t attack me for a “low blow” - he said I hid behind relatives, and other bullshit. He refused to give a cite. And you stepped in to help him, even though the quote you found didn’t support what he said.
