Wait a minute. I think you’re suggesting that waving the Confederate flag is a form of patriotism? The rest is your usual fluff and personal attacks. But we may have reached an impasse if that’s your stance.

Then you're an idiot and can't read. I never said anything of the sort, but it's telling that you're so intent on denying your obvious bigotry that you have to continually make up bullshit. You're just proving what a bad person you are.

You know very little if anything about anyone on here. Anyone who disagrees with you, you snap and lash out with personal attacks. It's old and it's tiring. You misquote members and then expect them to defend themselves. When you stop all that fluff, I'll realize that you're willing to have a discussion.



Here's a take from one of the sciforums mods, who isn't American, but I think he summarized it well. I'm not sure why Trump has attracted white supremacists to be honest because I don't consider Trump to be a racist. I consider him to be narcissistic, who has had wealth and privilege his entire life. It is odd that such a person would draw white supremacists, and ''proud boy'' types to his cause. His economic policies helped a great many African Americans, so it's just a head scratcher as to why white supremacists would rally for him.

But, stranger things, I guess.

I know what you tell me, like you being a bigot of anyone flying a Confederate flag. Go ahead, try to deny that after you've just repeatedly reiterated it in this very thread. And show me where I've misquoted you. Not my fault you make stupid statements. You literally equated Confederate flag wavers with racist, and then said they weren't "evil, bad, or inferior"...which applying the simple distributive property literally means you're saying being racist is not "evil, bad, or inferior". If you don't like it, quit trying to defend the indefensible.

And you're projecting again, as it's literally you being unwilling to have a discussion. Hypocrite.

See, you're again betraying your ignorance. Proud Boys include members of all races, as their leader is of Afro-Cuban decent. The media repeatedly exaggerates connections between Trump and white supremacists, even though a white supremacist shooter renounced Trump as not doing enough against illegal immigrants.

And James is a foreigner who only reads leftist sources. Too bad you haven't learned to do better than a foreigner.

I've said it before. No need to posit any conspiracy when the simple human nature of individuals will suffice.

By saying it's human nature to be a democrat or a leftist, you lose all basis to morally condemn it. It's a mindset and a set of values that emerges from their lives naturally and is not deliberately adopted like an ideology.

I didn't say that. It's human nature to be biased, selfish, and try to get your own way by any means. People are moral when they try to resist those natural tendencies, otherwise people would be moral by default. Leftists generally do not resist their own natural tendencies. Leftism is an ideology designed to justify their immoral natural impulses.


And I'm not the least bit surprise you don't understand any of that. You just project your own conspiratorial leanings.

Well, only because I had something to offer.

How do YOU know? YOU cannot speak for other people.

1.Yes you did.
2.Not me.
3.Not a part of nature.
4.Probably.
5.I agree.

This is just too recursively solipsistic. I prefer the software that snips bits and phrases from other people's posts to make one big smorgasbord of falderal. Interesting coincidences or chance gems occasionally appear in those jumbles.

WHY is it Stars and Stripes??

Yes, that's the idea. A good bot should at least pull a few random things from the thread it is posting in rather than stuff from a neighboring forum a few kilometers down the road.

Love is a bot? lol He/she has gone by a few names on sci forums, all banned one after the other, but don't believe he/she's been accused of bottery, yet.
