dude, just **** off. I'm not even going to respond to your nonsense. I didn't say I had a sense of entitlement, jackass, I said what I was and was not willing to support with my time, which I am in complete 100% control of in terms of how I allocate it.
Ahem -
that is entitlement. You are saying you are
entitled to not be discomforted by what players do before the game. What you just wrote is
exactly what entitlement is. And from where did you get this sense of entitlement? From nowhere. It's completely unearned.
I did not "tell" anyone anything, I related how I viewed this for myself. It is your ignorant ass doing the 'telling'
Your view is that protesting the national anthem by taking a knee is disrespecting (?) the flag (?) or the anthem (?) or whatever. That's you
telling people what is appropriate according to your comfort. You don't bother to ask
why they're kneeling, and if you do, you don't listen to the reasons. Instead, you just impose your reasons as to why their grievances aren't legitimate from your privilege, and claiming you're entitled to not being discomforted because they don't want to abide by an arbitrary standard you made up off the top of your head.
It's all an exercise in avoidance. Saying that protesting institutional racism discomforts you is both expressing an unearned sense of entitlement and privilege.
I explained what I thought and you spew crap and ad hominems. Oh, and strawmen. You've erected quite a collection of those in your little spew. I've never said any of the words you're attempting to put in my mouth here or elsewhere.so, yeah, just **** off.
All this because your views were challenged; privilege.
more nonsense, assumptions and straw men.
is this all you have? cause if so, it's not much.
nothing but bombastic talking points, and attempting to pin them on others regardless of what they've actually said.
in other words you are completely and utterly full of shit. and full of yourself as well if you think you can make these assumptions about others based on a single post on an internet BB and that your conclusions have any actual validity. case in point, I've posted on this topic in other threads. I have never taken the position on this that you are, yet again, attempting to pin on me in another feeble attempt to forward a strawman.
do yourself a favor and maybe remove your head from your......talking points long enough to look at those and you'll realize I have no actual problem with these people doing whatever the **** they please. It's their right to do with their time what they see fit. It is also my right to exercise that same privilege. See how that works?
I've seen hundreds, if not thousands of folks like you on this BB and others, all with the same intellectually dishonest MO of spewing the party line and talking points, while throwing logical fallacy around like ticker tape at the Macy's parade, and you are doing the same here. Your second post is as full of it as the first.
and this is why my initial response is what it was. I've spent/wasted enough time arguing with people exactly like you and it is nearly always the same thing and certainly has been here- Ad hominems, strawmen, rage and spew. blah, blah, ******* blah. And no, none, zero, substance or fact of any kind.
you have no basis for any of the assumptions you forward as fact while attempting to find cover behind the use of blatantly intellectually dishonest logical fallacy in an attempt to draw me into an argument you've framed out, without bothering to find out, or even wonder apparently, if what you take as fact has even a passing relationship with reality.
all I have to do (and will do until I get bored of it, which is fairly near already), is point this out. thanks for playing....
