Is it possible to maintain and respect cultural heritage and not be a racist

[Thumpalumpacus]

Either Drippy speaks English as a second language, or the American school system is even more fucked than I thought.

I don't know where he went to school.

I only know that he is very comfortable speaking out of ignorance, rather than learning the facts about things.

For once, I'm not just dogging on him. His posts are littered with homophones, simple spelling errors and words where he where he obviously doesn't understand the meaning, but still uses consistently. Assimilate is a good example of that last. He uses it over and over as if it means to destroy, hide or eradicate something instead of meaning to take something and make it a fully integrated part of something else.

Yest, he's a tool and a fuck-wit, but so is GC but he can at least speak the language (for the most part) properly.

I try to not judge people based on their language skills. I'm not native myself, sometimes I make mistakes.

Who said I was judging?!?










For that, at least.

Seriously, it's just something I've noticed and tried to point out. If he speaks English as a second language or got a raw deal from his education, it's still obvious there something up.

His propensity to find humor in the suffering of others, however...

Hey, I didn't say you were judging him, I said I don't like judging people X reasons. I've noticed it as well, too much confusion to bother me. Drich is probably the person I've spoken less in AF

[Drich]

"Sue" Indians, Drich? Really? You couldn't do a two-second google search to make sure you were spelling that correctly?

The 'Sue' was an opportunity for me making a pun-ie...

It was a scape goat for those who wanted out of the conversation without taking one on the chin. Since everyone wants out I get the option to speak further or drop the topic all together.

Ideally it would have just narrowed the field, so I would not have to waist time researching stuff none of you care about.

The thing is, Drich has been observed being corrected in his language usage on this forum, complete with citations in one instance, and still he clings to his error.

It's as if he's unable to admit any sort of error or ignorance at all. I agree, Dys, that language errors should not be fodder for heckoing, but with Drich, I do sometimes broach that policy, precisely because he absolutely refuses to correct his error even in the face of authoritative sources.

, precisely because he absolutely refuses to correct his error even in the face of authoritative sources.

And could one possibly exhibit the evangelical Christian spirit better than by believing being right is simply a matter of not admitting you are wrong?
