Look...man,  continue to present the opposing viewpoint if you need to, if you enjoy it, but stop pretending that you haven't been given everything you asked for. Right?  Own it.

Again I ask.....darky in a park....are you aware of the effect that the maintenance of the positions you've advocated for in this thread have had on american politics..and thus..real peoples lives?

A bunch of links are not a citation.  They're a smoke screen. Dude, I even cited them (properly) myself, showing that they didn't even AGREE with your position.

You made a factual assertion: 10% heritability.  Show where that assertion comes from, and then I'll work out how to get the money sent.  I don't need dozens and dozens of links-- I need just one. . . the one which you can demonstrate has the number you are asserting as fact.

Well..other than the fact that they contain that assertion...and other than the fact that I even included links that seek to diminish and propaganidize that fact....just to be "fair"........

Other than that, you're just so damned right.

Read...the links....you've been throwing a fit to get.  Please?

I'll ask for, what, the fifth time now?  Do we agree that we care about whether or not people get hurt?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

So in order to prevent from black kids getting a donation, you are going to refuse to quote your source? Yeah. . . that'll stop racism, for sure. Seems legit.

I didn't ask for a bibliography, dude. I asked for you to show where you got your stat from. The correct response is to provide a single link, and show where you got the stat from-- like I've done with ALL my factual claims. Stop fucking around, and either do it, say you can't do it because you made a mistake, or say you refuse to do it because fuck me, and fuck whatever kids that money might help.

 Well......no.....but quoting and linkinig my sources hasn't exactly worked...now has it?  You're just so damned anxious, huh? So anxious that you just can't part with that money.

You did, actually, and you were hilariously wrong,  No matter...right?  Still...somehow, you're right, eh?

Dude.....lol?

Do you realize how damaging your contentions and the maintenance of those contentions has been..and do you care...for the umpteenth time?

(just say no...lol)

Around the merry-go-round we go. It's super simple, dude. Show where you got the 10% figure, and I'll send the money to help some poor black kids. So far, you've dumped maybe a dozen or so links, with no summary of what they said, and no specific quote meant to support any point you made.

Argue better.

And please note that in another context, I would have just gotten bored of your bullshit and wandered off to do something more fun, like stab steak knives into my eyes. But in this particular thread, it is my intent to show that the PC Left argue shittily and dishonestly, use epithets instead of facts, and use empty rhetoric instead of coming up with real solutions to real problems. You couldn't have provided a better example if you tried-- so much so, that I suspect you might actually be deliberately trolling the PC Left by turning every negative perception of them into an exaggerated satire.

Understand this point, because it's non-trivial. By behaving in such a dodgy way, you interfere with the efforts of moderates to establish some mutual understanding and to develop policies that might work. If enough dumbasses talk and argue like you, the credibility of the left will be so badly damaged that no social issue is likely to be taken seriously again.

I....have..........read......my links.  I'm not interested in adding that sort of commentary.

Dude, you're full on...on the wrong side of this.

"Ye gods.  The dirty tricks!  Asking someone to provide actual sources for factual claims.

Alt-right trickery, it is!  Fascism!  Scientific racism!  Asking for facts is a violation of my riiiiiggghhhts!"


Tiz, only PC derps like you two would think that requiring actual sources for factual assertions is a "strategy."

Both of your quotes of me convince me even more than no real communication is happening here. I'm not quite convinced bennyboy is a racist and I'm not quite convinced that khemikal is hoping to police anyone's thoughts. I think you're both throwing each other onto the extreme ends of the spectrum in order to further your OWN narratives. It's embarrassing to watch, really.

You both just admitted that you have no intent or interest in backing down, which effectively lets me stop reading what you have to say right then and there.

A wise man somewhere once said, "Have the maturity to know that sometimes silence is more powerful than having the last word."
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
