EE said something that was mathematically incorrect. You backed up his incorrect math. You should be embarrassed.
Instead you come with this lame shit? I know this is the pit but even here, we frown on stupidity.
I don’t care what “white people” do. I care about what I do.
You’re right, arrogance is not partisan.
No, you were indeed wrong in what you said. It is clear to anyone that reads your post. You have been wrong on basic shit like this frequently enough that I am not the only one that has noticed. Anyone can make mistakes but you do so with high degrees of certainty.
There was not a lot of room for error in interpreting what you said in your posts. You claimed that my statement required another assumption when in fact it did not.
Your post a said that my statement resulted in a conclusion when in fact it did not.
You are really bad at this, you’re embarrassing your side of the argument. You should really stick to jumping on the bandwagons of the smarter liberals on this board and talking about your feelings and shit.
You realize that everyone can read those posts as well as I can, right? There is not a lot of room for error unless words mean different things to you than they do to the rest of the world.
This is what drives much of the conversation surrounding race today.
It kinda sorta made some sense in the legal arena. But even there it was considered pretty fringe by serious legal scholars. It was appealing to young social justice warriors going through law school and it spread from law to other areas of thought. Areas where the application of critical race theory made little sense but was used to justify fairly radical positions on race and society.
It replaced logic, facts and science with storytelling, narratives and appeals to emotion. It made white people feel guilty and it made black people feel like victims. It “uncovered” a new category of racism that they elevated to a level of significance that was as dire as the old type of KKK racism. They are also fairly hostile to “model minorities” because the existence of model minorities undermines the narrative that the white power structure has made it impossible to thrive in America unless you are white.
:smack:
You say that facts and science don’t matter to you. You are going to go with your personal anecdotal evidence (mostly picked up from media (probably social media). I ask you to examine the implications of your position that you are going to immunize yourself from facts and science. What if white people decided to live their life based on their anecdotal experience and feelings?
And you say you don’t care what every white person does you only care what you do?
:smack:
That’s strange. I have seen many, many threads about race on this message board and have only ever seen YOU use this term. Yet you say it drives much of the conversation surrounding race today? I’m doubtful.
Please post where I say facts and science don’t matter to me. If you cannot, please rescind this statement.
When was the last time you had your vision and hearing checked? You seem to see and hear things that just aren’t there.

You say you are not ignoring the study by the ABA, but you don’t care because your personal experience supersedes the science.
Now, back to why people think its OK to say #cancelwhitepeople
Could I say that and not get banned from this site?
#cancelwhitepeople
You mean like that?
Also, context matters. Are you sarcastically saying “#cancelwhitepeople” in response to white people non-sarcastically calling you a “dog-eating gook” and similar racial epithets?
#cancelDamuriAjashi
I had only vaguely heard the term here and there myself and would not have been able to define it five minutes ago. But I actually read through the cite and I can see that it’s pretty clear Damuri has a point. According to the cite, CRT is the origin of “microaggressions”, “white privilege”, and “intersectionality”, among other concepts that are also familiar from social media in particular.
I would think a more fruitful counter would be to defend the validity of CRT rather than scoffing at the assertion that it has percolated from its “ivory tower” origins into the broader social media discourse.
Sure, but I think it’s more funny to counter his moronic assertions with
#cancelwhitepeople
Sometimes the comedic value of making a poster look stupid in the Pit outweighs the fruitfulness of an argument.
People might not know this, but the reason you came on so aggressive is because I’ve spent so much time making fun of you. Specifically about how you don’t really seem to understand the posts you’re responding to.
I’ve even come up with mean nicknames for you, like Captain 20%, which was based on a scientific analysis I did of your posts, where you were only actually responding to something written in the post 20% of the time (and 80% of the time you were off on some weird tangent that made it clear you had no idea what you were responding to).
This post would be a good example. Are you at all aware that nothing you wrote had anything to do with the post you quoted?
It’s a pity that political correctness has made it wrong to use the word retarded. Because I think you’re fucking retarded.
You wouldn’t think so, but you managed it.
I think you’re pretty unique in your ability to read posts.
In all seriousness, Damuri, I’m not sure that a text-based medium is the right choice for you.
Actually, **Damuri **is right about the math. He’s just wrong that he’s contradicting me. My entire point, which **Damuri **missed due to mild retardation, is that **SlackerInc **made the claim that black schoolchildren receive more funding than white schoolchildren due to special education funding.
My entire point, which Damuri misunderstood because of course he did, is that even if what **SlackerInc **claimed was true, that regular black schoolchildren could be receiving less funding than regular white schoolchildren, and special ed black schoolchildren could be receiving less funding than special ed white schoolchildren.
The language I used was something along the lines of “black schoolchildren would still be discriminated against on a like-for-like basis”.
Damuri, being stupid, then provided an example which showed my case. He just, as is typical for him, didn’t understand the post he was responding to.
If that was too many words, let me give a simple example:
Me: 1+1 = 2
Damuri: HAha, EE is wrong. It is in fact the case that 1+1=2.
You: Damuri’s math checks out. I guess EE was wrong.
Damuri, do you think EE is getting weaselly and trying to deny what he actually claimed because it’s so embarrassing for him now that he’s realized how off he was? Or is he so confused that he believes the bullshit he’s peddling now? I go with “weaselly and desperate to avoid further humiliation”—what about you?
