There is STILL no such thing as "race"! But there IS such thing as racism.

    Step 1: Get your ass handed to you in a thread.
    Step 2: Start your own thread claiming everybody else is wrong and rewrite language so you feel better about yourself.
    Step 3: Scream and whine and cry all through your created thread that your version of language is correct and everybody else's is wrong.
    Step 4: Repeat (we all know it'll happen).

    BTW, I added some text to that post probably after you read it.

    I was saying there that you should check forum rules. They state that we should use the quote functions when quoting another poster. The quote function doesn't mean "images". And the problem with you doing this, is that you appear to lose track of what we were talking about. This happened to you here.

    They taught you about races in kindergarten?

    They taught you to segregate people into "races", but they didn't teach you to be tolerant of other people's gender identity.

    Now I understand how you got to this point.

    No worries, I'm quite familiar with PF rules :) And I most likely had already replied to it before and after you added text to it, or it would all be there :)

    Well that's great but... the point is not whether you're familiar or not. It's that you're not complying with them.

    Well if, as you say, you're familiar with forum rules, you shouldn't HAVE to wait. Here's the addition: You violated two forum rules in this thread alone: plagiarism, and misquoting (or whatever not using the quote function is called). If it had been me, you'd likely be reporting me faster than I can write "read the content". I don't report things that are that trivial. I would consider reporting things like that puny and worthy only of a weak mind. So I don't. But it would be nice if you could correct them.

    ~ If there's no gender — only "persons " — then there is no race, no ethnicity. Makes sense to me ... :wierdface:

    no I learned race is superficial in kindergarten. Maybe I'm just smarter than you. I'm sorry you have to learn this as an adult. I blame the schools.

    Ok, so the term is now ethnicism. Because apparently science is important again.

    The progressive scientist believes that the human species is unique insofar as it stopped evolving shortly before leaving Africa.

    For a smart man, you miss a great deal. Tangible is not relevant when it comes to people's beliefs. Long ago, I read an story of two people frightened by bears- except one was a man in a bear suit, the other a genuine bear. While the person fearing the bear suited man was in no danger, the feeling of fear was equally genuine in both people. But- the difference in people's alliances aren't quite like that. If you rightfully se a bear as dangerous because they kill, it's rightful to see people associated with particular characteristics as likely to have those characteristics. Thus- like it or not, fair or not, people of every kind of group develop their own image by their conduct. That is the image the group generates for itself- but which individuals in that group which may or may not be typical of the group image will have to deal with.

    Democrats want to call republicans threats to democracy, while republicans see democrats systemically destroying democracy. Of course you don't understand my point.
    There's another old saying- If you understand, no explanation is needed. If you don't, no explanation is possible. Some people's programing, the limiting parameters of their thinking, makes that so.
    No sense explaining to you. You''re not going to understand, and the barrier is your own.

    Then you might want to think about stopping erasing 90% of the quote of other posters that you are quoting on a regular basis.

    But I guess when you can't argue the facts you're left with erasing 90% of their post

    There is no racism. There is prejudices based on many things. Racism is a term that is overused and prejudiced should make a come back as a term to describe this poor behavior and belief system.

    "There is no such thing as "race"!"

    Welcome to my Nominalist Web, said the Individualist Spider to the Collectivist Fly.

    There is no such thing as "society".

    There is no such thing as "the people".

    There is no such thing as "the collective".

    They are all mental/intellectual constructs.

    There is no such thing as "the common good".

    There is no such thing as "social justice".

    So, the next time some socialist charlatan tells you

    The common good before the individual good.
    -- Adolf Hitler,
    February 24, 1920, Munich, Germany


    Remember! It's ALL bullsh*t.

    The only thing that exists in reality, the only thing that really matters, is the Individual.

    We're all Nominalists now.......

    Except we aren't. Some just talk the talk, but won't walk the walk....
