Guess that makes Rand a vuvuzela.
He’s already got a fist up there.
The low hanging fruit are usually rotten, man. Anarchists can be plenty organized.
Oh, I didn’t realize you had been appointed spokesperson fior all SDMB posters and lurkers, and you have perfect knowledge of how everyone interprets my posts.
I didn’t imply it, I stated it outright. His posts in the various Africa/Chief Pedant threads are sufficient to convince me.
Oh, I’m definitely a racist, but only if you define “racist” as “someone who does not automatically dismiss race/IQ studies.”
I’m not a racist if the term is defined more properly, something like: “a person who believes that people of a different race are inherently and irredeemably inferior than themselves, or have lower intrinsic worth as human beings, or are less worthy of respect.” I started a GD thread about the definition of “racist” and it didn’t get very far–it’s more fun to call people racists than it is to discuss what the term means.
42fish said “damn near” and was clearly referring to the respondents to this thread. You jumped to “all SDMB posters and lurkers”.
Have you no respect for accuracy? Does “precision” sound to you like something you’d see on a menu?
Please stop trolling. He said “damn near eveyone.” There’s no principled reason to limit that reference to those who responded in this thread. As a matter of fact, not everyone who responded to this thread actually misinterpreted my posts, so you are just plain wrong.
AIUI, your Bloc wants to bust the heads of, not people of any particular socioethnic identity, but
I think you think society owes you something, namely, the freedom to pound other people’s faces in because they espouse politics you deem detrimental to said society.
Mind you, I’ve heard more than a few upstanding law-abiding citizens express the wish to crack some individual upside the head because s/he felt society owed hi/r this or that (usually a decent living or a measure of respect). But none wished they could round *all *such people up in some sort of national whoop-ass boot camp.
I made no statement on the accuracy of his claim, just that your restatement of his restatement was inaccurate. What you are claiming as “wrong” on my part has no relation to my statement.
I’m not even trying and I’m a better lawyer than you.
Hey, I’m ambitious, what can I say?
“Goodbye”?
Sure, but there’s something about the phrase “organised anarchists” that just sounds wrong.
It sounds wrong if you’ve never had a conversation about anarchism with an anarchist. If you’ve had such a conversation, making this joke is the equivalent of making a joke about someone’s name: it may sound original to you, but you can be certain they’ve heard it a thousand times before.
Thats why I just kick em in the nuts instead. What else should you do with stupid, self important, humorless idiots?
Teach them to be tax accountants?
Yeah, that’ll shut 'em up!
Wait . . .
Not that I’m in favor of Nazism or political violence, but for sheer brass I have to admire Ernst Pöhner, Munich’s Chief of Police during the turbulent early '20s, who when asked if right-wing death squads were operating in his district replied “Yes, but not enough of them”.
Is there any room, considering that’s where he keeps his head.
I thought that’s what Fox was for.
