Bunch of Nazis you are.
There is a lot of racism based on fear, as morb's is.

"If we allow others to prosper and have a chance at positions of influence then we will end up suffering."

That is a primative train of thought, no an animal train of thought (pun intended ). People need to see life as more that a zero-sum game: 'if they gain money, we lose money'. This country, this world can be so much more that a group of ethnicities trying to get their peice of the pie at the expense of other groups. The goal is to allow each person to become his own person and be judged on his own merits.

The zero-sum game is a game for cavemen. "If Lala village gets a banana that's a banana Wewe village doesn't get".

But after 100,000 years of evolution morb can't do any better than that.

Actually I tend to lead with the sarcasm.

With those who strike an "anti-PC" stance as a cover for blatant racism, as with morb here, the belittling is the obvious approach. The standard anti-PC rant adopts a sneering condescension towards "liberal bedwetters", so if you dive in and use that angle on them first, suddenly they're struggling and have to come up with something different. It rattles them, and that's good by me.

The old saying goes "To defeat your enemy- sing his song.". It works. If you're arguing a point where you might be expected to seize a stance of the moral high ground, it's often far more effective just to go in hard and nasty. Anyway, seeing as I've always loved getting in a good rumble this just suits me fine.

I would say that my racist stance is a cover for my blatant anti-PC opinion.


as far as your "style" or approach, its just trolling, so don't try to make it sound like you have a ground to stand on when you want to defend it. it makes you look discombobulated.

Well, that didn't make a goddamned lick of sense. Let's talk about funny-looking people again.
