Roger Stone tired of arguing with this negro

[Catseye3]

Stupid is in the eye of the beholder. You can't really argue with someone who thinks something is stupid that you don't think is stupid. For him it's stupid, for you it isn't. You can't really take it any further.

[Doctor Phibes]

Ok, maybe stupid was the wrong word. Deranged might be more accurate.

[Catseye3]

@Doctor-Phibes No, stupid is fine if that's where it's at for you. My post above was directed at Jolly.

@Jolly said in Roger Stone tired of arguing with this negro:
" If you consider America as the New Israel (some do) or as chosen by God, it makes pretty good theological sense."

In other words, it doesn't need to make any sense

[Doctor Phibes]

Maybe 9-11 happened as a punishment for people being so presumptuous as to think that America was the New Israel.

Particularly young black men will sometimes call each other "Negro" in conversation. I think it's an in-joke kind of thing. They'll stretch out the E sound. Not being in with that in crowd, I don't really know what they're saying when they do it. It's not a putdown, I don't think.

But I have never heard of a white guy doing it to a black guy.

Sure, why not? I'm sure there's some good theology out there to make nonsense of it.

You cannot tell me you want equality then set up “we can do this but it’s horrible and evil if you do it.”. It makes absolutely no sense and is another example of infantilizing blacks.

[Doctor Phibes]

Complaining about blacks using the n-word is the ultimate whataboutism

[Mik]

I dont care a whit if they Wish to denigrate themselves in that matter, although that is a large part of the problem - self loathing and self defeating behavior.

But there’s no justification then to get all weeweed up up someone else does.
