Pitting Max_S

Yea, that’s why we took you out in the forest and drove away.

But you keep finding your way back.

I thought that the entire point of a dedicated pit thread to a poster was to compartmentalize the taunting and the pointing out of their stupidity there.

Taunting, yes. Engaging no.

I don’t know for sure, but I could totally imagine suffering extreme emotional upset at receiving an email like that. I can’t image most people not suffering it.

Hey, you want to argue about the underlying issue, go to that thread.

This is the place where we make fun of a fucking racist who doesn’t want to engage with Black people, but wants to speak for them, tell them how they should feel, or not feel (because apparently they are sub-humans and cannot be emotionally damaged like real aka white people).

sorry

Feel free to mock Mighty Mouse as well, for telling the rest of us how to engage in a Pit thread. Asshat.

“Black Lives Matter? What’s that?”

Fucking idiot.

Hey white knight for the despicable, go fuck yourself!

And yet, you’ve never noticed that Black people are upset by being presenting with graphic imagery of the Klan? That… does suggest you don’t ever listen to Black people. And that you are bending over backwards to justify the aggressor.

@Max_S , I am not here to mock you. I am addressing you, as one smartass who likes to win arguments to another. You have a choice you can make. Do you want to be an asshole who argues unpopular positions on the internet to see if you can “win” the argument, or do you want to be a compassionate human being?

This is not a one-and-done choice. It’s a choice you can make and re-make every day. But to be a compassionate human being, you need to think about other people, not just about how clever your argument is. You need to develop empathy for people who aren’t exactly like you, and have different life experiences. I believe you can do this. And I urge you to try. Maybe not right here, right now, today. But think about it. Think about what kind of person you want to be. Practice being the person you want to be. You don’t have to stop being a smartass to do it, you just need to reflect on where you are blind to others, and exercise your underused empathy.

She wasn’t white knighting Max, she was saying you are acting like an ass in this thread. She is pretty much correct.

Max is a far bigger ass and not just in this thread. That is a bigger issue.
Maybe stop telling people not to engage. Then lashing out when called on your minor BS.

My apologies to @Sunny_Daze
Thanks to @What_Exit

Something you almost never see in the Pit. Very cool.

Now Sunny Daze can tell me how inappropriate that is for the Pit!

Accepted. :slight_smile:

Piffle.

And a cheap-ass piece of shit who stiffs delivery drivers just because he can. Though I’m guessing it’s the same underlying asshattery behind that.

Both driven by his underdeveloped sense of empathy.

I’m a straight, white make, and I’d be disturbed if someone sent me graphic images of the Klan.

*male

I agree, I would be upset getting sent images of the KKK.
Even if I wasn’t feeling like a target of them or the sender, the KKK is an awful, evil organization for all of it’s existences and guises.

I’m upset disgusted by what Max_S is saying.
