My point towards MrDibble is worthy of a comparison.
Let’s compare the Southern Poverty Law Center vs PETA.
I do not take PETA seriously because they have no filter. No matter how asinine an idea, they will go with it and act like media whores. All of which does nothing but undermine their credibility. Are they right sometimes, sure. The problem is that the worthiness of their cause is undermined by the crazy way they go about getting their message out.
In the other hand, the SPLC uses a laser focus staying precisely on point after ONLY those things that are truly worthy of their effort. I frequently do not agree with the SPLC, but their credibility is absolute.
In the same way, when MrDibble equates racism when a nurse says that sickle cell anemia is more common in African Americans, he is being like PETA.
When everything you see is racism, the racist is within. There are plenty of egregious examples of racism and far better to focus on those.
I disagree with MrDibble on a lot of things, and I disagree with him on this particular issue. But he’s not shrieker, and he brings a valued perspective to his MB. I usually enjoy reading his posts, even when I disagree with him.
Nope. And if it was the same thing, methinks you would have placed his actual words inside the quote marks. I mean, why in the world would you change them if they were, in fact, "the same thing. Nope. The non-quote statement you included in quotes can simply go to one instance, a childish tu quoque. The OP’s point, as one can tell from what he actually fucking wrote, is that doing that repeatedly, seeing every instance where race is involved as racial, is what makes Dibble the real racist.
Now, since you are posting in this thread about race,and you seem to agree with Mr. Dibble, I can safely conclude that you are a racist!
Not only are you nitpicking, as is your wont, but this is fucking stupid. It was fucking stupid when the OP said it, which was why I called it fucking stupid, and it’s fucking stupid when you’re fucking stupidly saying it now. Which is why I’m calling it fucking stupid again. Are we clear yet?
Calling a flag on real racism is fine. If everything you see is racism, if that is all you see and any discussion however trivial is race based for you, then who is it that is racist?
What is stupid about that?
Not only that, it is a terrible thing to call someone racist is akin to using Nazi. Hold off on that only in the face of real racism.
To save magellan01 from shitting his pants again, I will say the “people who accuse others of racism are the real racists!” thing is asinine. People who say that kind of thing have zero understanding of what racism actually is.
Not that I’m keeping score, but MrDibble is often right about this stuff. Certainly he’s quick to call racism on the whole “sub-Saharan Africans are retarded” thing, which is indeed extremely racist.
Calling other people racists might be presumptuous, but it doesn’t say anything about your views regarding race. It does potentially say something about your views of what other people are thinking, but that’s different.
Presumptous? How about downright, throw down in the street insulting. Call me ugly and I don’t care, call me racist for stupid things like he does and that takes it to another level.
Links may help the uninitiated, like myself, to better understand what you are mocking. OTOH, they let us see for ourselves whether or not you are full of shit.
That is precisely the post. MrDibble calls racist only about every post when it is weak; that I find indefensible.
Also typical of the nick picky crap of the Dope, there is black in the common usage and white in the common usage. Justifying your slinging the accusation of racism behind nit picky Sub Saharan Africans is weak.
So MrDibble is annoying you by pointing out a factual error? From a scientific point of view the common usage is bullshit, and he’s right that making that statement “about blacks” is wrong. Since the whole argument is about genetics, that’s relevant.
A Link! A Link! Hazzah! Hazzah! And there was much rejoicing! Now I can rest easy knowing what the hell I’m supposed to be outraged about…
See, Useless, was that so hard?
