What? I never said it was about me, I'm not trying to prove a point. He said something in reply to my comments, which I didn't understand, and then all but refused to explain himself when asked.

The real welfare queens are Corporate America. That is what our society has been ignoring and why the races are divided.
I get the same reaction from Muslims and Jews and Christians when you are blunt with them saying that religion is why you are divided. Sometimes you get to the point where you get blunt.
He didn't tell me his point, that's the thing i'm pissed off with here.
Quote:The sane are simply getting tired of being polite. If we were not seeing the same shit in the news decade after decade we would not be having this argument. The best thing to do is LISTEN and work or get out of the way. What will not happen is perpetuating the status quo.
THIS IS NOT ABOUT YOU. I can tell you personally I do end up hating individuals who take it personally. Now if you really think Minimalist is wrong, instead of focusing on the word choices, make your own arguments. But don't think even outside this particular board you can paint someone into a corner to get them to conform to you.
What am I supposed to think Minimalist is wrong about? Have you even read this thread? What the fuck is all this 'it's not about you' 'stop trying to make people conform' shit coming from? All I wanted was an explanation from him. What was the point of posting that picture of white people rioting, in response to my comment? That is literally all I want to know, there is nothing else going on.

What the actual fuck? Where exactly have I intimated that I want to control what people say?
