..... Those republicans... Only listening to the "part" that they want to hear. I also believe that being an "informed person" , means that you actually listen to BOTH SIDES before making a opinion/choice/judgment.

Hmm, let's see, 17 deleted posts so far. Good going, guys.

The next person who calls someone a commie, a nazi, a moron or any other insult is going on a holiday. If you are unable to have a civil conversation without throwing mud at each other, you're not going to have a discussion at all. I'm sure you can have an exchange of ideas without demonising the other side.

Waiting for @morvoran to comment on their fake news post that's already been proven completely out of context. What do you have to say about it now that you've been proven to be spreading lies?

Even in context, it's still horrible race-baiting fear tactics. Just because he said something like, "we are fighting for racial equality" beforehand doesn't mean what he said wasn't completely racist.

Just because you say it was racist, doesn't mean what he was was racist. See how that works? Pretty easy game to play. Have anything a bit more difficult than a fucking 2 piece jigsaw puzzle?

It's racist to use racial identity to antagonize people/provoke them to act. It's in the definition. It's not a puzzle. The puzzle is figuring why you defend it.

@Xzi has already stated that it's okay to be racist as long as it's subtle enough. Do you agree?

No. The puzzle is figuring out why crickets about the other side doing exactly what you're condemning Biden of. Actually, it's not a puzzle at all. The answer is clear. I'll just refrain from stating my true feelings about you.

I'm not the other side. I'm my side. The last topic of conversation was this. If you want to misdirect, I can't stop you. If you think you have true feelings about "me", I won't convince you otherwise.

Is it as @Xzi suggested? The "right" amount of subtlety?
In this case no, there's no racism at all there, you're just inserting your own choice of motive and intent. I know I said that before, but in Biden's case, he's really not that subtle about it when he "gaffes." See: "if you don't vote for me you ain't black."

Paraphrasing what was said: "If the serious issue of racial inequality is not addressed, then the world is doomed: black people will have to work with Hispanics."

Racial politics are one of the worst forms of racism. There is no point being addressed in this context other than the feelings about different races.

It's not a gaffe when it's consistent with his character...

It that's what makes you feel better in order to get some sleep... But one would think that like with Trump, you'd get sick of constantly losing your game.

Misdirect? Put down the crack pipe. You quoted me with a reply. I replied to your reply. How is that trying to misdirect? It was a completely direct response, and nothing short of it. Also, if I wanted to waste more of my time than I already have, I'd go through this entire topic and list every, single, time you have actually misdirected. Take a real good look in the mirror before you let such insane amounts of hypocrisy flow from your fingertips.Yeah?

Edit: It doesn't matter what side you are on. Be on your own side. That's fine. But it doesn't negate the fact that you are still silent when it comes to one side vs the other in the matter of race baiting. So like I said, crickets from you about the other side.

This isn't about Trump. I've made remarks about Trump, but that doesn't mean that everything I say and do is about Trump.

I see, so what Biden said is actually about Trump? Insinuating that I'm a crackhead because I don't abide by your absurd claims is just another horrible testament to your capacity.

The concept of "bipartisan" is such a farce, rounding up everyone to be caught up in a losing game with horrible (and racist) rhetoric; except the politicians who prey on it.

I've spoken up on claims of Donald Trump being racist. On the wall: I don't think he claimed Mexicans were rapists, but that rapists were among those getting into America via the border.

When Trump made fun of his experience meeting with Asian government officials; it wasn't that different from what Asian people already do in regards to native English speakers, in telling stories.

Trying to rally support for political changes solely based on racial identity and antagonizing with the idea of racial conflict--I haven't seen Trump do that. Please point it out for me, and I will "stop being a cricket" for you.

This is BBC being racist and changing the context of what Trump was arguing.

Yes, it is very much about Trump every bit as much. Why? Because you make hypocritical shit posts.

I see, so what Biden said is actually about Trump?

WTF are you even getting this shit from? You pull the strangest things from the top of your head. Get off the crack pipe.

Insinuating that I'm a crackhead because I don't abide by your absurd claims is just another horrible testament to your capacity.

If you seriously took that statement as insinuation that you are actually a crackhead, you have more problems than I originally ever thought. To clarify how this works: Crack is a drug that people smoke with a pipe. When smoked people most likely say stupid and/or nonsensical things. What the comment therefore means in a non-literal sense is "What you just said is so bizarre that you must have been smoking crack. Put it down."

Understand? You're welcome.

Edit:

The stage it's on is 100% irrelevant and you know it. You're trying to force a bad faith comparison. You just basically said "I've seen Trump be racist, but I've not seen him be THAT racist." As if there's some type of difference depending on who is speaking, why, when, and where.

I'm almost convinced to take your word for it (not really). Got an example?

You said that what Biden said isn't racist because "Donald Trump supporters didn't do something". I pointed out how this was misdirection. Now we are so far removed from the original point that you don't even know where you are. It doesn't take a lot to look at the previous 3 posts. We are done with this point.

Wonderful display of mental gymnastics. 10/10 Somehow you find a way to make it a claim about my mental capacity.

... I was actually surprised to see this Thread pop up on the right side of the Homepage just now, after seeing it for the first time a while ago; if this is any indicator, the next 4 years will be chock-full of this in the Media.

To be fair, it's quite the moral predicament; hating Losers but being one.
Must make seeing one's reflection awfully traumatic.

Yes. Plenty. Just not wasting my time quoting tons of your posts into a short story for all to see. Everyones already seen them.

I never once stated that. Never. You completely made that up. 100%. It's you that is lost and you're beginning to convince me you MIGHT actually be a crackhead. Not saying you are, but the possibility exists. You are aware right, that it's very common for several conversations between different people to exist within a single thread? I mean, you HAVE been following this one. Right? But if you insist on staying on topic. Then let's talk about the topic. Joe Biden Wins. Let's talk about Joe Biden winning, or else take your misdirected comments to their proper place.

When you make things up out of thin air on a consistent enough basis and babble on nonsensically, what else is one suppose to think about your mental capacity?

Nice edit. A 180 from you claiming I'm talking nonsense to throwing a red herring, to yet again, deflect from the point that you are supporting racism. Thing about a red herring, is that it is worth no effort to chase. If you can serve it on a platter, though...

Me talking about Biden being racist, and you saying,"what about you, you Trump supporter!"

Ah yes. "Things come from nothing" argument.

I edited because I initially misread what you had said. Had I not edited it, you'd be crying about how I can't read correctly. So whatever. More hypocrisy. Want that evidence? Look back yourself at how many times you have edited a post. And you know every bit as much as I do that some of those edits have been quite significant. Pot call the kettle black much?

Me talking about Biden being racist, and you saying,"what about you, you Trump supporter!"

Ummm. No. Just. Wrong. You said EXACTLY, and I quote "You said that what Biden said isn't racist because "Donald Trump supporters didn't do something". So no, I never said that. Ever. You pulled that out of thin air. Then you changed it to "But but but!!! Maybe you didn't say that, but you DID say this instead!!!". Saying you're hypocritical isn't the same thing as saying "Biden isn't racist because Trump supporters didn't do something". Not even close. How do you even make that comparison? You just read what you want out of things then try to gaslight with your projections. Hint: "What you're seeing and what you're reading is not what's happening" -Donald J. Trumphttps://gbatemp.net/threads/joe-bid...he-united-states.576824/page-255#post-9310840

I believe I just mentioned something about you making nonsensical comments.
