No, I am gay. He’s calling me a faggot. There’s a bit of a distinction there, I think.
That’s right. I’m not trying to make them look like loons. CWS does it itself by including the cartoon in their course materials. I’m pointing out that they are providing graphics from the Weather Underground, not exactly the most reputable group.
Now, if I was able to find this info in less than 15 minutes of searching, having never heard of Dr. Butler before seeing this thread, I would like to think that UD would have done a little more research. If they had done just a little more research than me, and they saw this cartoon and more, yet they still hired her, then they must not have thought her course material was out of line or that the fact that it prominently included a cartoon from a terrorist organization was not wrong.
What’s with the “CMC+fnord!” thing?
Ah, but are you snippy? That, I think, is the real thrust of the insult.
Or little, I should add.
Gotta post what my wife said about polecat this morning looking at this page:
I didn’t know **Miller ** was gay. That casts a whole new light on LonesomePolecat’s insult. At first, I thought he was just a brainless juvenile. Now I know that he is a hateful bigoted piece of shit.
But this doesn’t mean that conservatives are bigots, right **Weirddave ** et al?
No, it doesn’t.
One of your most thoughtful posts here yet, Carol.
She’s coming along nicely, isn’t she?
yea, it was pretty fucked up, and all 'cause he missed that another conservative was dissing him, and Miller and I were rude enough to point it out.
Well, I am snipped…
But not little.
I did hope, that in a thread that has discussed issues of tolerance, and in which a large proportion of people have asked that a group of individuals not be tarred with the statements and beliefs of radicals, that someone wouldn’t seize on that statement and say “conservatives are bigots,” but you know, whatever.
Just to be clear, since my comment seems to have been misunderstood by you and **Carol Stream ** (and perhaps others), I was not saying that all conservatives are bigoted. I was using LonesomePolecat’s bigotry to needle **Weirddave ** for making generalizations based on individual cases.
I think your ability to detect sarcasm may be slightly impaired.
No offense meant; I assumed as much. “Nobody could be so unaware of themselves,” thought I.
Then I remembered the rest of the thread.
Hey! I want the same level of outrage as Miller is getting. He’s gay and Lonesome called him a faggot, while he called me a cunt and I’m obviously a bitc . . . never mind.
I, for one, am shocked that no one has called you a bitch, and I would like to rectify this shocking omission here and now. Bitch!
Feel better now?
A little. But I could tell you didn’t really have your heart in it.
Yeah, sorry, I just phoned that one in. I’ll try harder next time.
