Yep. You get to pretend that you are not a racist misogynistic bigot, for a few posts anyway. How fucking convenient. But at least you can admit that your attacks on Omar in this thread are entirely disingenuous.
Definitely not the color of her skin, not whatsoever. I am strongly supportive of the vast majority of the Congressional Black Caucus. I don’t like “the squad” because they attack the mainstream of the party.
Being “strongly supportive” of some black people doesn’t stop you being racist. Stop using the Congressional Black Caucus as a shield.
You also don’t like the squad because of the colour of their skin. Just stop pretending already. Its a matter of public record that you are islamaphobic. You are on record as holding racist beliefs. Stop hiding who you really are. You are attacking Omar because she is Muslim and because of the colour of her skin. Everything else you’ve said in this thread is incidental.
Look, Slacker; you’re a liar and what’s worse is that you’re just a bad liar. By that, I mean your lies are not even close to believable–there’s no kernel of truth to them around which you construct your bullshit. Case in point is that you do, you obviously do believe that Ms. Omar married her brother. As I mentioned before, you believe that with the fanaticism of a convert.
And your recent posts in this thread are outing you for the fucking vile racist you actually are.
Fuck “the mainstream of the party”. They’re nothing more than a bunch of milquetoasts committed to the cause of Business As Usual at the expense of the working-class Americans who are suffering under the status quo and would eagerly vote for progressive candidates if only the boomers would get the hell out of the way.
Monty and BB, you are both stupid or dishonest. The fact is, it is my unswerving honesty that gets me in trouble. I’m not lying about a damn thing.
ETA: Smapti perfectly illustrates what I am up against and the double standard. People like that excoriate the mainstream of the party all day long and twice on Tuesdays, but if we push back at them it’s high dudgeon time. Fuck that.
…if you were being honest this thread wouldn’t be on page 18. You would have conceded that you “welcome immigrants from virtually any other part of the world, as long as they are not Muslim”, and that the reason you’ve started two threads about Omar (one in the pit, one in Great Debates) and the reason you continue to participate in this particluar thread is thatyou don’t think people like Omar should be allowed to be in in America.
Stop pretending. This is a safe space. No need to be PC here. Accept your identity. Accept who you are. You are a racist islamophobic misogynist. Say it loud. Say it proud.
You need to go back and read more carefully. Nowhere did I deny that I am against the Muslim religion. People are free at any time (at least once they are within the freedom of the West) to do like Sarah Haider did and leave Islam. She has the same exact ethnicity as her kin who are still Muslim. (And of course she is a woman.) I embrace her and I do not embrace them.
What I did deny, and continue to deny, is that I oppose the Squad (only two of whom are Muslim, by the way) because of the color of their skin or their ethnicity or anything like that. I’m not super keen on having a lot of practitioners of the Muslim religion in Congress, any more than I’m keen on having a lot of Baptists or Mormons in Congress. But my problem with those four goes way beyond that to the way they attack the mainstream of the Democratic Party.
That they are various degrees of laughable and/or vile, and demonstrate that there was a deep, unhinged ugliness among large swaths of the Republican base that Trump was able to activate. Much deeper than many conservative intellectuals ever understood until four years ago. What’s your point, exactly?
Do you think these laughable and/or vile, deeply unhinged ugly people didn’t like Clinton, Obama, and Clinton, wanted them to fail and didn’t actually care about the accusations on their merits?
…I’m not going to take orders from a fucking white supremacist. Fuck off. I’ve read the the fucking thread. I also know who the fuck you are.
Stop sugar-coating your identity. You aren’t just “against the Muslim religion.” You are an Islamophobe. Say it loud. Say it proud.
Just admit it. You don’t want to co-exist with Muslims. You don’t think they belong in America. Tell the truth. Stop lying to yourself.
Of course you deny it. Because you are a fucking liar.
You don’t hold the position that Baptists or Mormons shouldn’t be allowed to immigrate to America. You do hold the position that Muslim’s shouldn’t be allowed to immigrate to America. Thats a real big fucking distinction. Its hilarious you thought that I wouldn’t have noticed.
BB, you are ridiculous. Anything that fits your clean narrative, you take for the gospel truth. Anything that mitigates or muddies the water, you just declare is a lie. :rolleyes: You can claim anything about anyone on that basis.
What your theory doesn’t explain: If I were out to lie to make myself look better, why do I say all the stuff that I know is going to be met with umbrage and derision? If I wanted to present a false persona that would be widely embraced on this board, it would be so very easy.
Based on Slacker’s history on the boards, do you believe that:
Slacker is racist? Yes or no.
Slacker is Islamophobic? Yes or no.
Slacker is a misogynist? Yes or no.
Let the people tell it like it is.
Its not a fucking theory you fucking idiot.
You aren’t lying to “make yourself look better.”
You are lying because you think you are a better person than you actually are.
You are actually fucking evil. You want to ban Muslims from America. On this you are on the same side as Trump, the same side as Miller (not the moderator). The Muslim ban actually happened. And I bet you loved every minute of it.
LOL.
And yet, here you are, still trying to pretend that you aren’t a racist, Islamophobic, misogynist.
Is English perhaps not your native language? If I say something I believe to be true, it’s not a lie. You may feel sure that my belief is unwarranted, but even if you prove as much to a metaphysical certitude, that still does not make it a lie.
TL;DR: “You are wrong” and “you are lying” are not synonymous. HTH
Slacker once shared with me the technique that he uses when he gets pinned down in a debate: its a subtle pivot. Just enough that the person Slacker is arguing with gets sucked into arguing something else. It a tactic Slacker uses quite successfully. But it doesn’t work on me.
TLDR you are a racist, Islamophobic, misogynist. And a fucking liar. Just admit it already.
The people that used unsubstantiated rumors to attempt to destroy the political careers of Clinton, Obama, and Clinton, wanted them to fail and didn’t actually care about the accusations on their merits, are they good people or evil people?
Hint: The answer is ‘good’ or ‘evil’.
Very few if any people are just “good” or “evil”. I would call the people you’re talking about my political adversaries. But I don’t hyperventilate or stagger over to a fainting couch when they make up ridiculous bullshit or pass it on. I just calmly try to help my team win the PR war. Politics ain’t beanbag, as the saying goes.
