I say this in all sincerity: you're an idiot.
Let's examine how you've responded to my post.
This has as usual got nothing to do with what I posted about. All I said was you see your opinion as right, always, and never change. How that turns into me sitting quietly by while people make racist comments is totally beyond me. Maybe in your world. You do realise I called Ki out on his attitude in that same post, don't you?
There most certainly is. I realise you're being facetious here but it is in fact the very root of the problem as to why people do not take you seriously and start trolling or fighting with you (which is sad, as you could talk sense if you tried and the issues you bring up are valid, just not how you approach them) and why your threads always end up with you, and maybe one or two others who may take your side, against everyone else.
Why would you say this, and then open a thread asking why people get annoyed at your threads (reading between the lines, this is the actual question you're posing)? If you don't want to be liked then why expect anyone to give your opinion any credence or time? Someone who goes out of their way to be annoying, condescending and closeminded will never get anyone to listen to them seriously or take their views with anything other than a rolleyes, so if that's what you want why are you so annoyed that people don't take your threads seriously?
Totally irrelevant. Nobody even mentioned this.
And again, you hear what you want to hear. I never said at any time that there weren't racist, for want of a better phrase, things being posted here (although really, bored and disinterested would describe them better: I never read anyone say "those black people deserve to be shot" or "White power!" or anything like that. But take it as you always do). Again I repeat, I called Ki out on his comment, but you of course have ignored that.
That's the trouble: you are unable to have adult, informed discussion. Your threads basically boil down to WAAHH! WAHHH! YOU'RE ALL RACIST AND NOBODY LISTENS TO ME!

Well, enjoy. Once again I have nothing left to say to you. You've again, and not for the first time by any means, cherry-picked what you wanted out of my post, twisted my words and completely failed to answer any of my questions or deal with any of my points. You've ignored most of it, so I guess the best thing to do is leave you to your rant and ignore you.

But before I go: sitting on the sidelines I believe you said? And you have seen the thread I created about racism and police brutality, I trust? It's quite honestly like talking to a brick wall.

I said brick, not black! Jesus!

Oh, I'll say one more thing before I go. I am certainly not racist, but if anyone could turn anyone into a racist, it's you. You're actually hurting the cause you purport to support by your ignorant remarks and your refusal to see beyond the (say it with me) black and white of the issue.

This thread is closed but I want a say because, hey mod powers a there for a reason right?

Does it matter whether it affects someone in the thread in order to talk about it? It's like saying, "oh no one in this thread is affected by euthanasia being illegal so why discuss it?" While people out there are dying slow deaths who could do with it legalised. The politicians making the laws may not experience any of what they make laws about but it's still important to be discussed and ruled upon. People need to be educated about what can effect others, or history can repeat itself. Law makers or not.

I may not agree with the majority of what the OP says but I still believe the topic should be allowed to be discussed.

I know this post seems pointless at the end of the discussion/thread being closed but I want to send the message to other members to not be so quick to judge. And also, racism can indirectly effect you whether you think so or not.
