Going on Saturday I believe. I imagine it will be entirely predictable but fun and also slightly forgettable.

Randall isn't saying there are no situations where the speaker isn't the one at fault for being mis interpreted. I think you used the correct number, but wow that's a lot of embedded negations in one sentence. I'm not sure it wouldn't be impossible to make the point without refusing to avoid using ...

What about math teachers? You said you love math.

Have you looked into what comes next, like Calculus?

Weeks

Have you spoken with any teachers about this? If so, what did they say?

It only notifies you if you are quoted, like so.

Yes the word is "miscommunication"

I haven't watched the very last episode yet, but I've liked it so far. Beerus is cool.

Man, hypothetical tragedies are so hilarious, but so useful! I often find myself daydreaming about mass suffering and loss of life just for fun, and also, in order to better explain my point of view when arguments get...you know...serious.

Psych! Not really!

Weeks

Heh...I bet if we armed students, the ensuing gunfire would drown entire schools with the blood of innocent children...maybe youd hear the horrified screams for a while...then complete silence.*giggle* just kidding XD

Weeks

Person of color? Are you sure about that phrasing?

Weeks

I don't care for the dismissive way you're characterizing my comments, but you should have the right to do so. It's not going to hurt my feelings. I would like to believe anyone reasonable would read this exchange and see both sides for what they are. That's fair. I don't care for your extremely co...

American Nazis have rights, indeed, and we must defend them every time minorities are upset about them getting to spread their beliefs, which, while I personally disapprove of (please don't say I'm a Nazi sympathizer...I just believe in freedom *shrug*) should be known by the people of America. Down...

Thank you for letting us know! That's as clear cut as it gets.

Short version from memory is that it's best if everyone has heard refutations of the falsehoods and as such become inoculated to their persuasive power This should happen in school and at home, your kids should already feel in their hearts that minorities are people too BEFORE getting to college, R...

@Weeks Then I think we disagree. Sometimes, there is a legitimate reason to no-platform someone. Like ST said, you don't let someone bring dogshit to dinner, especially when that person has a history of inserting that dogshit into other people's food. what? You asked if i thought it was unacceptabl...

the latter, obviously. Do i sound like a centrist to you.

No one in this thread supports the violence committed by antifa against innocent people. Like no one here dons a ski mask and smashes businesses. I believe we have had this discussion before! I also find preventing a group from speaking to be problematic as a general concept. I'd rather see ideas ri...

Just one shot? Guess the training has paid off!

Weeks

Given all of that, for people to continue to tar and feather him seems counterproductive toward the goal of having a good faith discussion of the issue. Tar and feather? Like the Tulsa Outrage? But with 140 pages of thread history that I'm not going to read, maybe he's simply run out of strikes, in...

Im comparing you to a white person telling a black person "all cops arent bad!" when you say we should "presume people arent monsters".

Thanks,

Weeks

arbiteroftruth wrote:That clarification itself could still be made more explicit of course, but again, I'm operating on the assumption that most people aren't monsters.

I too have never been treated badly by a cop

Weeks

My point was more along the lines of, 'Look at how horribly these cops are trained.' Any basic firearms course would tell you to never shoot madly like that. This miscommunication is on me. I should have made myself clearer. Cops are so badly trained their eye-hand coordination is less than par, in...

cool yeah the cops' poor marksmanship is the Real Problem here hi, it is me, Rational Thinker on the Internet just pointing out some inefficiencies. I would like to propose that the method of shooting applied by subject USPD-001128 on target USIC-777391946 is suboptimal, but also quite interesting....

The only real problem with BP was that the plot of "hero fights villain with same powers" is starting to get a bit stale. Being a Marvel movie works against it: we dont get to see more of Wakanda because it has to follow the necessary act structure and hit all the right emotional notes (s...

Not that I expect, well, anything from Nazis, but that's wrong because the movie itself has the message of "being isolationist isn't that great, after all"

I too find this movie to be rather standard fare and unworthy of the overwhelming praise (and dollars) heaped upon it. I'll admit the aesthetic is kind of nice. https://i.imgur.com/QQeZcZL.gif Yes, that is the common refrain shouted from every corner of the Internet. The inevitable response is &quo...

That the British didn't give sufficient fucks re: their support of chattel slavery. It 'wasn't a big deal' that they were supporting the transport of a million people as livestock . Certainly not a big enough of a deal to stop doing it. Or at least tell their children this was, like, a thing that h...

Another thing or two that I feel like this movie leaves unanswered, both having to do with missing women: Who and where was Killmonger's mom? They said his dad fell in love with a woman in America and they had a kid (Killmonger) together, and then they killed his dad and left him there ...

More important than child labour in the coal mines? Or turning an ancient empire into drug addicts in order to keep the tea flowing? Or intercepting the shipments of gold looted from South America by the Spanish? Just so I'm clear, are you comparing all this to the slave trade? Not trying to get a ...

rmsgrey wrote:Even during that 200 year period, the slave trade was a relatively minor part of British history

yeah the literally subhuman treatment of millions of people is not quite as relevant as the kings you crowned, and the wars you waged, and so on and so forth

Weird how that happens
