You've fit into the clown car here pretty well. Not the smartest clown in the car, but you're in the car at least, amirite? :rolleyes:

The only place I'm in, moron, is inside your head rent free for the past few weeks.

I suggest you make a wax or straw figure symbolizing me and then try sticking pins in it or something. I dunno if it would work, but it is surely an healthier way to deal with your impotent frustrations than how you been going about with it in these stupid posts of yours for the past few weeks.

Why give me the importance then? If I'm a troll, there is saying. 'Don't feed the troll', isn't that how that wisdom goes? You know what we are doing now is pointless and yet you are still continuing to have this shithole conversation with me? The reason for this is because something is clearly wrong in your head. Thats why you love being a sucker for punishment.

ok attention whore! When clowns make clown posts, the non-clowns are obliged to call the clowns what they are. You don't like it, then stop posting like a clown!

No evidence of self-awareness found. Keep projecting, clown.

Hey clown, i do not and have never done anyone's dirty work. I call clowns as I see them, you are a clown,, nothing more. Only clowns will deny being clowns when their clownish bullshit gets called out. Intelligent people will do a bit of self reflection to understand what they may be doing to be perceived by others as being a clown. You are not intelligent because all you've done is double and triple down on clown bullshit time and again. You need the attention, you seek out the attention, you like the attention, you like being the clown you are and no matter what will go to your last day on this planet with a giant red nose and big ol' clown shoes on. Fuck off clown!

And yet you keep responding to them. Content-free responses, it's true, but you clearly feel the need to post something every time, even though you have nothing on-topic to say.

On topic: I'd still say racism has changed form - it's arguably more structural now, rather than being down to conscious, openly-expressed prejudice.

But I think one would have to be a black American to actually be able to see it sufficiently clearly to be able to answer the question.

Plus things can change very rapidly. German Jews before the 1930s were among the most well-integrated Jewish communities in Europe.

Is there something you want to say? Start a new thread about it.

Er, yes, there was something I wanted to say, and I said it in the thread that was appropriate for it. I guess you see this thread as being exclusively about your meaningless moaning? Try reading the thread title.

Yeh, more nonsense from Braznor. Why are on even on this forum? You never actually say anything on-topic, just engage in personal flame wars.

And the rest of you all are just gems in being wise, rational and fair minded, always honoring the sanctity of thread titles, right?

LOL

P&N is a rabid cesspool. Deal with it.

The US is not as racist as it was in the 60's but since Obama was elected, man oh man did it show we hadn't made nearly as much progress as we thought as it turns out a huge chunk of the Republican party were raging racists, and it's only gotten worse with Trump enabling them to feel more free to let it out.

This country is in bad shape.

I never thought the U.S. had that many racists until Trump became a presidential candidate in 2015. His popularity with republican voters shot up almost instantly after he made the remark that Mexicans entering the U.S. were criminals, rapists and drug dealers. If not for that remark and his anti-immigrant platform, he may not have been elected.

I saw it right after Obama got elected. My relatives from down south would send my mom these chain emails that were so fucking racist about him. People I grew up with in the burbs that I had lost touch with, they all started showing how racist they were, I heard from friends and then saw it on FB later on in his presidency. But yeah, Trump took them to a whole other level.

That statement should have disqualified him from being nominated by the Republican party, but nope, it propelled him forward as you said.

The Republican base are fucking vile racist shite.

Edit: and oh, also full of homophobes and sexist toxic masculinity.
