Racism isn’t a binary thing where you either are or are not “a racist,” and neither is it a permanent condition. Having said some problematic things doesn’t make one irredeemable, and as previously said, the real injury of racism isn’t saying problematic things. It’s a system of entrenched power that keeps people down. Lincoln most definitely smashed the most evil institution of oppression in this country’s history, while others fought to preserve that evil indefinitely and enshrine its presence permanently and prominently in their system of government. As such, Lincoln deserves his monument despite being a flawed human being, but the monuments to those who fought for evil should be taken down from our public squares and instead put into museums to record our shame for ever having erected them in the first place in its proper context.
A white man admiring Nathan Bedford Forrest for unspecified reasons versus a black civil rights leader admiring Lincoln because he ended slavery, hmmm, that’s a tough row to hoe alright. Not much in it.

Someone needs to post the Billy Madison everyone is now dumber clip.
If this is really all that confusing to you, maybe you’re not as smart as you think you are?
Cliffs:
Heritagenothate: MAKES YOU THINK
Unstuck poster #1: stuff
Heritagenothate: yeah boy MAKES YOU THINK HUH
Unstuck poster #2: more stuff
Heritagenothate: MAKES. YOU. THINK.
Okay fine. But if that’s the end of the conversation, what even is the point? Do you have any thoughts beyond your questions? You speak as though the answers should be obvious, but your refusal to offer anything close to an answer to your own questions shows that you deliberately have nothing more to say or you are a liar and have no idea how to answer your own questions.
It makes sense for HNH to be so confused about so many things. That’s the birthplace of real awareness and knowledge. At least he is not insisting everything is as it appears to be. We’ve all gone through it at some point, realizing there’s more to the world than we thought, so high on the sound of our own voice because we are asking questions no one else is asking. Until we realize the reason no one is asking those questions is because they asked and answered them long before they occurred to us.
So let’s not get caught up in how privileged we were to go through this when we were eleven. No one gets to choose when they start #askingquestions. So if he’s going through this in his…thirties? forties?..that’s fine. Soon he will enter phase two where he realizes how silly and obvious his questions are, then phase three where he becomes consumed with an existential terror as he realizes just how ignorant he is and always has been.
Makes you think.
If you keep getting that reaction, it means you are asking bad questions.
What reaction are you referring to?
from Past conversations it’s probably because the overall policies aren’t why he supports trump.
He’s told me in the past that:
- he blames Obama for losing his contract job a number of years ago because when they said they couldn’t renew or hire him permanently it was because of Obamacare costs.
2)He thinks trump is better because he got a new job in wireless after trump became president.
- I think the rest of his support is grounded in trump is an outsider/Q anon type stuff.
Your brother is a moron.
Sorry, not sorry.
Well yea, that reminds me, he’s all in on the whole human trafficking thing which is Q related.
He also told me about how it was weird that all these top ceos have been resigning (cuz they’re corrupt) lmao.
A few months ago he was sending me stupid yootoobz about human trafficking conspiracies and I told him something like yea you shouldn’t believe any of that shit.
A couple months later he sends me some human trafficking articles or something and claims I said that human trafficking wasn’t a thing, I got rekt i guess
Did your mother drink and smoke while carrying him?
Why do you think he refuses to share these views itt?
Man lol me
Unstuck poster asks a question in a manner that makes it obvious what they think the right answer is and that they expect him to be wrong. He deflects by doing things like answering a question with a question.
It’s this cycle of performative questions where the winning condition is to pwn the other side by making them rage-quit the discussion. If this is your intention, that’s boring. If this is not your intention, you’re asking the wrong questions.
Agree to disagree. Sometimes there are no right questions to get the kind of response a person wants.
That’s a good one for a Party
