Gotta keep up with the new hate trends, if you want the most attractive bridge.

Anti-Asian discrimination is _so_ over after the Oscars, didn’t you get the memo? And one doesn’t want to get a reputation as a one-trick pony, after all.

He probably just smells blood in the water and is circling. I believe the Supreme Court is expected to rule in June on _SFFA v. Harvard_:

The first case involves Harvard University's undergraduate admissions process which is claimed to discriminate against Asian American applicants, while the second centers on the University of Nort...

For a self-proclaimed lefty, he certainly spends a lot of time defending the indefensible of conservatives and bigots.

That certainly explains the ardent ~~trolling~~ defence in the Thomas thread. Gonna need all hands on the Court for that one…

Apropos of nothing, some might like to google one “B.K.Neifert”, and especially peruse his “about me” page on his blog.

Why should we care about some random god-botherer who, just by posting style alone, is so obviously not going to last long here? Their post wasn’t trolling, just not-even-wrong.

You know what _was_ trollish, though? Especially in FQ. _Your_ reply.

Best thing would have been to ignore it entirely. But no, had to show how clever and sarky we are… and then go and _research_ the crazy. Off exactly _one_ post. You clearly have too much time on your hands.

You probably don’t have to put up with constant bleeting in South Africa from Christians screaming about how opressed they are when people suggest that they maybe cut back a little on the hate speech.

Ha ha ha.

Call me when _your_ fundies explicitly put the word “Christian” in their [political party](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_Christian_Democratic_Party) names while doing such bleating…

America is hardly unique in having religious nutjobs. But taking potshots at them in FQ isn’t going to do squat about that.

Once again: [ha ha fucking ha.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satanic_panic_(South_Africa)#Fatal_exorcisms). Americans are so cute when they think their religious kooks are different from other countries’ religious kooks.

Although, at least technically, such bleating would be [illegal](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Witchcraft_Suppression_Act,_1957) here, so there’s that consolation. No consolation to those murdered kids, though.

Maybe a quibble, but let’s be fair. @MrDibble cited an actual political party with “Christian” in its name. You cited a non-profit lobby group that’s not a political party, not even a PAC, and officially not even a political organization at all, though they describe themselves that way. The IRS considers them a “social welfare” organization.

The quibble is that the concept of “Christian” is of course an immensely powerful force in American politics and has been since the founding, and both Republicans and Democrats cater to it, even if no party is actually named after it. And, tragically, even though in principle the government is supposed to be secular.

Probably the only reason we don’t have an official party with “Christian” in the name is the same reason fish don’t have a party with “water” in the name.
