Title: Confederate Flag appreciation thread.
Post by: Yuri Bezmenov on July 05, 2015, 11:02:50 AM
I don't get all of this backlash against the Stars & Bars.   :dunno:

It was the battle standard of the Army of Northern Virginia, NOT the flag that flew on the capital building in Richmond.

Just how is it a symbol of oppression??   :dunno:

I dunno... maybe the fact that it was flown by the fucking Confederates? The guys who wanted to keep slavery!? :facepalm2:

I didn't realize slavery wasn't oppression. My mistake.  :dunno:

MYTH: The Confederate Battle Flag represents racism today.

FACT: The Confederate Battle Flag today finds itself in the center of much controversy and hoopla going on in several states. The cry to take this flag down is unjustified. It is very important to keep in mind that the Confederate Battle Flag was simply just that. A battle flag. It was never even a National flag, so how could it have flown over a slave nation or represented slavery or racism? This myth is continued by lack of education and ignorance. Those that vilify the Confederate Battle Flag are very confused about history and have jumped upon a bandwagon with loose wheels.

MYTH: The Confederate Flags are an authorized symbol of Aryan, KKK and hate groups.

FACT: Quite the contrary. These despicable organizations such as the KKK and Aryans have taken a hallowed piece of history, and have plagued good Southern folks and the memories of fine Confederate Soldiers that fought under the flag with their perverse agenda. IN NO WAY does the Confederate Flag represent hate or violence. Heritage groups such as the [Sons of Confederate Veterans] battle daily the damage done to a proud nation by these hate groups. The SCV denounces all hate groups, and pridefully boast HERITAGE – NOT HATE.

Christ... "the truth about", you DO realize that all that is allready on Wikipedia, right?
Also, I knew about the history of the confederate flag. Mindboggling, right? I knew about it for years. I know things! You don't. You think these things are new and intriguing.

"MYTH: The Confederate Flags are an authorized symbol of Aryan, KKK and hate groups."
Those who think that are simply stupid, and should read some Wikipedia.

The problem was never about people believing the flag is an OFFICIAL AUTHORIZED Flag Of Niggerhate. What you are using there, is a simple trick of deflection.
The problem is that the flag reminds people of racism, emotionally. Yes, laugh all you like, badass, anarchistic, unruly you, laugh at the emotional people - but THAT is the issue. It is an issue of emotion (social) and politics (political), in combination.
You are fully entitled to call it "bullshit", if you genuinely believe that people can go fuck themselves with their emotions, that is all legit.

But don't try this skinhead bullshit tactic like deflection, didn't Rage teach you that?

And didn't I tell you that anecdotal evidence is worth fuckall?
Since you were too ignorant to even Google-definition it (how stupid can you possibly be?) I will explain what it means:
"I met a guy who - "
"Once, a woman told me that - "
"I saw it with my own eyes!"
"Here, an interview with a Jew who agrees with Hitler - "

 ^ anecdotal evidence = not worth shit. That one black guy won't un-do the thousands of blacks who disagree with him.

"Yes he will! He neutralizes them with his ethnicness!"

No he doesn't...

in fact, in all of the "business of knowledge", the fewer sources, the more unreliable the source. But many people, especially idiots, are tempted to believe the opposite - that ONE person is more likely to hold "The hidden ultimate secret", while everyone are misled sheep.
Does that seem like something you agree with?

Yes. Basically. I'm not the one who's emotional about it, but half of America is. You might have noticed. Maybe not...
Do you actually understand, or are you now TOTALLY occupied by being as anarcho-badass as possible? Cus you're not fooling anybody.
When an entire population gets emotional, that is when wars begin (I bet this baffles you)

Sociopolitical = "emotional-people-political"

See? You learn something new every day.

Oh, and stay away from anecdotal evidence, that is honest advice I'm giving you.

It is stupid, sure.
I can look at a nazi flag, and not flip my lid, you're right.

Some can't, and here is the problem: If those people who can't deal with it, are willing to start a civil war over it - what do we prefer most? To laugh at emotional people, or to avoid civil war?

I know I've exaggerated the example a bit here, but look at what's happening in the news - because of feelings. Feelings matter. Feelings cause economic crashes, because the stock market is directly connected to feelings.
Feelings are important to human psyche, and political stability, it's not just about babies crying, but about maintaining a functioning society.
I would also like you to provide a comparison between people protesting about plankton, versus people protesting the confederate flag, and the cost, so far, of the anti-water protests you are refering to. What, nobody protests water because of plankton? Well now... just so happens a lot of people ARE protesting the confederate flag - making it relevant - and in the long run - costly.

I am saying - many people's feelings are hurt by it - and those people are numerous enough to destabilize your society.

Should or shouldn't makes no difference in politics. Germany shouldn't have invaded Poland, but they did.
People shouldn't impose abortion-bans on others - but they do.

And you might insist that people should not interrupt the daily flow of a city, to protest a flag, every day, slowing down local economy - should not, should not, should not - but that does not equal that there exists no problem, and exists no racial tension or racial association.
There's millions of people who know in their minds, not yours, not mine, but their - that the flag is a symbol of racism.
"They shouldn't!" well, how astute. But they do.

While it may be seen as unfortunate by some, the connection between the rebel flag and white supremacy can't be discounted. The issue appears to be based, not completely in the flag, but the practice of the flag being flown by state organizations. That should be left to public vote if considered a public issue of public property. As for the citizenship; this is America and people can wave whatever piece of fabric around they wish.

Of course I use ad hominems, what else are they for? You are ignorant, I'm informing you that you are. You start off being attitudey with a glimmer of racism - meaning you are - potentially - pure scum. I know from before that you have posted other racist threads before, such as how bad it is in Sweden - further proving your desire to provoke, while also showing absolutely no real understanding of the world, just cherry picking from conspiracy and racist websites.

So, yes, I try to educate you (out of the goodness of my heart) as well as chastise you for having wasted all this time trying to be a "badass", when you could have tried to learn something.
On top of that you arrive with a "step aside - I know this shit!"-attitude, which you immediately follow up by not knowing a goddamn thing.

So... yeah, plenty more ad hominems for you, all you have to do is say something retarded or racist.
Oh, and just TRY to say "but I'm not racist"  ::)

You're welcome by the way, now you know what "anecdotal evidence" means, and you can say it like you say "ad hominem", and sound very clever. No problem!

Another thing: Plagiarism shows a lack of creativity, and a lack of intelligence.
You didn't know that, or you would have varied it a bit

Yet another thing: Me being a weed smoker isn't some dark secret that I'm ashamed of or anything, weed is just weed, what, you think it's dangerous, or ruins families or something? It doesn't :D Ignoramus. Also, for a badass, you really should know some basic badassries like how much of a disaster weed really is...

Hmmm, what else... Oh, I have autism, you COULD use that against me, but 1. It wouldn't really hurt me, cus I'm not opposed or ashamed of having autism, and 2. you have autism as well.

What else... you could find some way of making fun of me being Norwegian, but I can't think of any examples. Also, it wouldn't really offend me. Add that to the list of things you probably don't know!

My mustache is less than optimal, you could always use that

Was that what you saw through?

Well congratulations! You GOT me! There is no racism, and nobody really believes there's a connection between racism and that flag - it's all just "bullshit", as you so eloquently put it. The anarchist! The bad-girl with the "I don't need books"-two word reply!

Me explaining to you that a real population of real people will have a real impact in reality regardless of your dumb little theories?
Was that what you saw through?

Well congratulations! You GOT me! There is no racism, and nobody really believes there's a connection between racism and that flag - it's all just "bullshit", as you so eloquently put it. The anarchist! The bad-girl with the "I don't need books"-two word reply!

Deliberately posting inflammatory racist posts from known racist websites.

You can choose between racist - and complete ignoramus, in case you had NO idea it was a racist post from a racist website.

And in this very thread, you immediately shot down the entire flag-issue as "bullshit", when you know very well that the history of slavery in America is everything but. It was important to you, to stamp it as "bullshit" - you outted yourself. Nazi swine, as we call your type, over here :]

Bullshit. Slavery happened but not the way it has been sensationalized. The Irish were fucked over with indentured servitude but since they are white they are "privileged" so were the natives but for some reason media forgets this deliberately. The flag issue is another distraction from tpp among other things politicians are fucking us over with. You are an indoctrinated little bitch. The race issues are made to incite racial tensions between citizens to distract from who's in charge of the government.

"Slavery happened, but hey, the Irish!" And that's what we call deflecting! I just explained that to you in the other thread, but did you actually feel like learning something new? NOPE! Have you still learned what "deflecting" and "anecdotal evidence" is? NOPE! Will you ever actually find out what they mean? NOPE!

Oh, and I'm Norwegian. We enslaved the Irish. 1000 years ago, at a time when whites enslaved whites the whole time.
Oh, and I'm Norwegian. So the whole "white-guilt" thing does not apply here - AT ALL - because we didn't enslave blacks.

And so on, you just know... so little... you burp out rehearsed crap, and you don't even realize who you're talking to. What's next, you're gonna lecture me about Obama?

Hint: I am not American, so I did not vote for or against Obama, since people residing in other countries don't participate in American elections. Aaand now you know that too! You're welcome!

Zegh you don't have to keep mentioning me. I know I have taken up a bit of real estate in your psyche, but work through it.

So, the flag is racist because some people identify it with white supremacists and slavery? They get upset and offended, so they must be protected from the offence. Well, I am offended that they are offended. Now what?

I will try to bring an analogy closer to home. Football violence in Europe. IF your favourite football team has a particular flag or team colours and your team's supporter's were involved in a a huge bloody and deadly soccer riot, MAYBE some people MAY associate that team's colours or flag with really nasty and violent behaviour. It may trigger shit out of someone who was beaten shit out of, to see that flag or those team colours. People may avoid even small groups wearing their vest going off to a game.

Now, do you think it would be fair to ban the team colours or team flag or call every supporter of the team a thug? It is exactly what you are doing in the Confederate flag example.

The funny thing is, you are coming from a supposed position of tolerance. "We can't offend the people who don't like the flag. The flag upsets them. We can not hurt their feelings so we must be more tolerant. Best way to show tolerance is to equate anyone as wanting to identify with the flag as racists or stupid or intolerant"

My fucking irony meter just broke.

I do not know a thing about the confederate flag.

I do know symbols can get different meanings over time.
The swastika now symbols something completely different from what it was a hundred years ago.

Meanings of words change over time, meanings of symbols too. And going back to original meanings often is not possible. Especially not if a lot of negative emotions come with the new meaning. The new meaning sticks to it, whether you want it or not.
When reading history, it is imperative to not take the new meaning into account though.

Is prohibiting the answer?
Maybe sometimes it is. The new meaning may get more imprinted in the symbol though. Because it now comes with the notion of being one of "the brave few", daring to use it. Giving it an extra attraction. Does work that way with the swastika, I think.

Other times changing the meaning yet again is a way better option.
Make an insult a thing of pride and stuff like that.

No matter what the history of the confederate flag. Dylan Roof now added a clear racial murder to the symbolism of it, whether you like it or not. And it has been imprinted in it now, because the images are everywhere. How to deal with that is the question. Banning? Adding new opposite meanings? Creativity may work better than force, in cases like this. But that takes lots of guts, and will probably evoke violence too.

I think that X associates flag with slavery/white supremacy, Y associates it with Southern States identity and Z associates it with Dukes of Hazard, then Z is not that invested but Y and X are. Who has the best claim over the Flag's identity? Who gets to impose who's values on who?
I say neither.
Let what people identify with be what they identify with, even if you personally don't.

It is more complicated than that.

X, Y and Z may be there. Now X had Dylan Roof imprinting the meaning of X on the flag with the blood of nine people. And Dylan Roof had that going global. Most newspapers and TV news showed the flag in combination with telling about this murder. The tables changed. X now got world wide credit. And it will have a massive impact. And the cognitive approach, how it does not have to mean X, but also could be Y or Z does not change that.

It's like a word with five meanings, that may even be contradicting, and only one makes it to the dictionary, and to all the school books. The other four meanings slowly evaporate from the main language, though in some dialects they may linger.

If Y and Z, and maybe M and N would find ways to confuse the meaning of X to the flag, that would be a creative approach. It will infuriate X, and will cause strife. It may be more effective than taking away the flag for all of them though.

Nope that is not taking it away from all of them, because X doesn't want it in the first place. You are only taking it away from Y and Z. Y is punished for nothing they did wrong and on the account of X's wishes.

Make it about the swastika. X being promoted by Hitler. Y and Z and others being old folk symbols of the sun.
X got his way. When people see a swastika, they see Hitler. Historically speaking, Y, Z and others are more in the right about the meaning of the symbol, but it is not how the symbol works now.



Dylan Roof is no Hitler. But, he has publicity on his side, like Hitler had.

Not saying X has now won by default. But it takes creativity to deflate what Dylan Roof achieved.

A big factory in cookies, making confederate flag cookies and giving most of the profit to the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church or something like that, and stating that in big letters on the package, advertising on TV etc. may be effective in deflating the meaning of X.
Imagine people thinking X wanting those cookies, but the cookies are anti-X.

I'm not saying the swastika is a bad thing in it self. I am not saying the confederate flag is a bad thing in it self (I do know nothing about it's history) but the meaning of both got tainted.
Banning the confederate flag as a result will probably work counter-productive. But if people want it to be a positive thing for them, and have it recognised as such, they will have to work on it. Because it has been tainted, and people will look at it that way. If the symbol is positive for them, than somebody tainted what they stand for and take pride in. And did a thorough job at that. Whether they want it or not, if they want to keep their symbol, they will have to reclaim it. Like a house owner will have to restore the house after a burglary has taken place. And it will never be totally the same.

I dunno... maybe the fact that it was flown by the fucking Confederates?

No, it was flown by the Army of Northern Virginia. An entirely different flag flew over the capital in Richmond Virginia and all other official Confederate buildings.

Jesus fuck, take a history lesson, will you??

I do not have a misogynistic attitude and you made a false connection to a false premise.

You self-declaring as a feminist means nothing. Nothing at all. I am a self-declared Humanist. Both are what we perceive ourselves as.
Either being divorced to a woman makes you hate the other person's entire gender or it doesn't.
Either arguing from time to time with women makes you misogynist or it doesn't
If that is what you are arguing about "my attitude" then you have to explain the divorce reasoning to every one here, especially those of that that are divorced AND you have to explain your own behaviour with Buttplug.
As to the Gamergate drama, you make no points for yourself there. In your own words "It probably doesn't mean what you think it means, but by all means"

There is a right to free speech and free speech is protected under American constitution. Free speech comes from Free expression or free ideas. What I mean by this is that if you have free speech laws then you lift the lid on where this speech comes from. People are allowed to think outside of the box and be liberal (apparently a completely different word to what YOU associate liberal ideas with) and with what they are voicing.

If you are in a country without such freedom, you are not allowed to express any of these ideas or thoughts. You need to deny you have them at every instance.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long-term_effects_of_cannabis

The long-term effects of cannabis have been the subject of ongoing debate. Because cannabis is illegal in most countries, research presents a challenge; as such, there remains much to be concluded.[1]

Cannabis use disorder is defined in the fifth revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) as a condition requiring treatment.[3] A 2012 review of cannabis use and dependency in the US by Danovitch et al said that in the US, "42% of persons over age 12 have used cannabis at least once in their lifetime, 11.5% have used within the past year, and 1.8% have met diagnostic criteria for cannabis abuse or dependence within the past year. Among individuals who have ever used cannabis, conditional dependence (the proportion who go on to develop dependence) is 9%." Although no medication is known to be effective in combating dependency, combinations of psychotherapy such as cognitive behavioural therapy and motivational enhancement therapy have achieved some success.[5]

Exposure to marijuana has biologically-based physical, mental, behavioral and social health consequences

Somehow, you concluded that it has "biologically-based" effects... (again, a noobish attempt at sounding authoritative. You are such a lost cause... )

Buttplug, you are a racist, and a mysogynist, and you take open pride in it. At least be up front about it. And again, for you to believe - logically - that I would actually be frightened - physically - at someone on the other side of the world, how do you get that to work together in your mind? Do you?
Or are they just clever jab-words you put together?

Because when I say things, they come from actual observation, not just rethoric.

For the last time, try to come up with something original... you've been stealing "jabs" from al and ME... ME!!! This whole time, as if I wouldn't remember what I just wrote myself, you don't even "turn it around" but you try to re-package it into something of your own.

Have you ever had an original thought? Do you know how? I'm not crying at my fatness, and I'm not some loser trying to organize gamer-gaters on the internet for some "bigger cause - of video games". I do however resent mysogynists and racists, so, yeah, we're back to: If you have opinions that are an insult to justice and human decency (something you probably think is lame, being as hardcore as you are), then you are scum.

I resent misogynists and racists and so do most people. What you need to do though, in order to be taken seriously by anyone BUT yourself is to make a case for people being the misogynists and racists, when you see them. Otherwise it looks suspiciously like YOU are the only bigot.

That is right, it looks that you are being so VERY Feminist and Liberal by imposing your censor and intolerance on anyone that does not agree with you and calling them bigots ONLY for the fact that they do not agree with you.

But I gave you a very simple task. Very easy. You claimed I was a misogynist. You claimed it as fact. I asked you to prove their allegation. Show that it is not just a rhetorical deflection or empty accusation. Best you came up with was

1. I am no longer married - 50% of all people getting married will divorced. As are many on I2. So this is going to be hard to push.
2. I have argued with women here (for various reasons) - but you are doing just that.
3 You are self-declared Feminist - I am self-declared Humanist.
4. I support Gamergate - And...?

Congrats Al, you failed at understanding simple science, and you failed at correlating what you wanted to correlate. Your initial point was that long term memory damage would cause me to mis-understand Feminism.
Somehow, you concluded that it has "biologically-based" effects... (again, a noobish attempt at sounding authoritative. You are such a lost cause... )

Buttplug, you are a racist, and a mysogynist, and you take open pride in it. At least be up front about it. And again, for you to believe - logically - that I would actually be frightened - physically - at someone on the other side of the world, how do you get that to work together in your mind? Do you?
Or are they just clever jab-words you put together?

Because when I say things, they come from actual observation, not just rethoric.
You have posted racist threads.
You have posted mysoginy.
You have the face of an overweight person, and good luck convincing me you are the exception to that rule "nono, ask... some guy... i met once! HA!!!"

 "Your initial point was that long term memory damage would cause me to mis-understand Feminism."

No it wasn't. I am saying that you have been a Stoner too long and that your ability to think in general is suffering.

I am imagining you as a just a step above a crackhead. Probably not working, pretty housebound (the weekly shop as the only sunlight you see), having your only visitors being creepy landlords/boarders, your parents dropping off/picking up fresh laundry or money, and your pot dealers.

It sounds far from ideal to me BUT maybe I am wrong. I have been wrong before. Tell me which of these is incorrect.

So yes I think everything you think is through a haze of smoke and poorly achieved because I think you cognitive abilities are jeopardised.

You don't know who I know, so, you would have heard it from me, and I do my own damn laundry... And I have all the money I'll ever need, I hit the disability jackpot. The creepy neighbor was evicted, for being creepy, so... all in all I'm good. Landlord is a family guy, he leaves me alone, because these flats are private after all.

What does this have to do with "cognitive abilities"?

Using big sciency words like a noob won't do anything for you here. Again, everything you know about me - you know from me. I let you know. Anything else, is your own imagination, or your aspiely mistaking me for someone else  ::)

And what opinions would they be? No, its a serious question and I ask because if you come back to you are both racist and misogynists and yet can not actually indicate how we are. Then the next logical step is to question what the opinions you find detestable are.

You following me? No..?

OK, let's say that you say "I don't like the Confederate flag" - Okay sure.
"I don't like the Confederate Flag and I don't like that others like it" - Meh
"I don't like the Confederate Flag and those that like it are racist" - Well hang, on what about people that identify it simply with family and heritage of Southern communities, not with racism - "I hate everyone who defends anyone else's right to defend their position if it doesn't meet my ideological foundations, and I hate anyone who defends the idea that not EVERYONE that likes the flag and/or identifies with the flag, is a racist"

Here is what I said, that you have been protesting this entire time: Some people are emotionally riled up by the flag, because of the association it gives them, this was what I said to Buttplug.

Everything else is your own fanatical addition, it's your rethorical "trick", that you believe to be so subtle and so brainy, but you are old. You aren't as sharp as you think.

No I really didn't. I propositioned that perhaps you are projecting YOUR own traits and deficiencies back on others. Now you said I think it was a ruse. At what point did I mention that it was a deliberate action? No, go on.

"you just did it" Interested to see where. Should be easy. How old am I? Relevance?

Again, not to rehash, but I do not credit you with cunning. I think that you are working from a position where you are saying a lot of shit and lying, and falling over yourself in your narrative, because you are a drug-fucked moron. NOT because you are cunning.

Is prohibiting the answer?
It's not a good answer here. People can wave a Nazi flag if they wish too, or a rainbow Nazi such as Parts preference. :laugh: Banning flags is silly and un-American. You're correct that the historical meaning of the swastika doesn't negate it's current meaning, and that's why I said the correlation between the confederate flag and white supremacy can't be discounted. It's a reality, but people waving the rebel flag around outside of some historical context probably realize there's the potential of it being interpreted that way. They're free to be interpreted, or misinterpreted, whatever the case may be; they're free to have their flag. This story prompted me to see what's the hubbub in the news before responding, and it seems a state capital building has been receiving grief for flying the confederate flag; they compromised by moving the flag to a confederate war memorial but that wasn't good enough to stop the protesting. Personally find nothing wrong with a war memorial including the flag, and it seems an appropriate setting for it's usage, though most recent reports read like it will be completely removed. It's a public property matter, not personal property.

WALLINGFORD — Local police received a complaint when a shopper discovered Nazi and Confederate merchandise at a popular flea market last weekend, according to Chief William Wright.

An officer responded to the Redwood Flea Market on South Turnpike Road Sunday to investigate the report and found Nazi and Confederate memorabilia for sale. He told the complainant, who is Jewish, there was nothing police could do because the merchandise was on private property

WTF  why would you even think of calling the cops? Not displaying it on a government building I get but this is ridiculous.     I don't sell at this flea market but go there to buy frequently and the place isn't overflowing with the stuff it has about  the same amount I have seen most places,  I have even sold some Nazi stuff and would sell Confederate stuff too if I ever got any.

Personally I know someone that has one hanging in his business. I really doubt they intend to remove it anytime soon.

I think it's in how you view it...honestly it's more like the redneck symbol of rebellion here.

Things are things imo, it's all in the interpretation or what people feel they "should" stand for/or not.

I can purchase a bag of oranges...

Now if I beat some idiot with them in the parking lot they are now a weapon.

If they die...now they are a deadly weapon.

If the person I beat is of a different race, color, or sex and I hit them because of the fact...now they are a deadly weapon used in a hate crime.

...and I started out with a bag of oranges.

I never did care for oranges.

Racialism = racists trying really hard to appear not to be racists

Just two-three days ago I had a lengthy debate with someone who finally admitted that it all came down to skin color and appearance. Appearance! Of alllll the things he could go around worrying about - it was people's appearance =I and all under the guise of "humanism" - "I just want to help to avoid racial wars"

Well, he can start helping by not judging people by their appearance o_-

Wikipedia is fine; it's only annoying when presented as, here read this and learn something link only, rather than presenting the information in one's own words and using a Wikipedia link as a backup source. Racialism applies to people who attribute qualities of better/worse as inherent to race, or consider different races as different human sub-species.

For years, Ive occasionally worn a Celtic Cross necklace like the one in the photo. Never thought anything of it. Ive only just been told that here in Hungary, its a symbol of white supremacy  :hitler: Ive been told that I really shouldnt wear it.

Of course, I could be an arsehole, and keep wearing it anyway, because to me its a symbol of my Celtic heritage and certainly not of racist sentiment. However, it seems pointless to wear a symbol that many find divisive and offensive, just because the symbol represents something different to me.

This is both sad, unfair, and also very common.
It's the ultra-nationalists who set their claws into all the old symbolisms they can find, and "claim ownership" over them.

Some try to visibly claim them back, I've even seen an anarchist-punk type CD cover with a huge swastika on it, and obviously, this task is nearly impossible, I doubt their swastika-CD cover made much of a difference -.-
Maybe in time, some of these symbol-uses will fade, but we're probably talking centuries.

Might possibly work if a whole contrary movement decides to take a very similar symbol. Adding confusion everywhere.
But as you said, nearly impossible.

Turning symbols around works more easy when a name or symbol being used as an insult gets worn with pride by the insulted group.

White supremacists in the US usually cloak themselves in a thin veneer of religious zeal.  They have co-opted the cross for their own ends.  As the Nazi's co-opted the swastika and flipped it around from it's far eastern origins.  It's sad that a symbol of good for many people gets tarnished by the idiocy and evil of these groups.  I happen to like the Celtic cross myself!   8)

You reminded me of a guy I met in Jamaica. Met him as a waiter and when I tried to order a "non-alcoholic beer,"  He just laughed and said in a barely understandable Jamaican accent,  "Nah, Mon. I don' think we have anything like that. Hey Mon, THIS is Jamaica, Mon!! You don' need to drink anything that is no' real, here. It is Jamaica!!"

He invited us to see his band play that night - Fucking Awesome - and we talked a bit more. I did order Jamaican beer several times that night. When the band was done playing at near dawn, I went to bed and HE went back to work at his day job.

It was really union states, seceded states, and western territories, but north and south sums it up well enough. There were also union states that permitted slavery but weren't part of the Confederate states which seceded, but they were boarder states quite literally caught and placed between union and confederate, though all of those but one are considered southern states; Missouri is considered midwest.

That's correct, New Jersey was the last northern state to abolish slavery, and while New York is considered to have abolished slavery earlier, it was only for the older ones and the children of indentured slaves weren't actually freed until 1827. Was thinking Benjamin meant during the actual time of the civil war, what was north and south. Could have misunderstood. If he was trying to say that slavery was legal and practiced from the beginning in all thirteen original colonies of the US, then yes there's no such thing as a truly slave-free state.

The word slave stems from the Slavs. Otto the Great captured and sold so many Slavic citizens that the word slave started to change meaning.

The original meaning did not get lost though.

We have awards and such for non whites who celebrate their heritages, yet if white people dare to do it, they are Nazis.  People are so brainwashed that it's comical.

You don't have any national holidays celebrating your heritage?  :orly:

Only private ones orgainised by the BNP.

Why is it never mentioned that there were slave states in the North?
It was really union states, seceded states, and western territories, but north and south sums it up well enough. There were also union states that permitted slavery but weren't part of the Confederate states which seceded, but they were boarder states quite literally caught and placed between union and confederate, though all of those but one are considered southern states; Missouri is considered midwest.

Ok

The word slave stems from the Slavs. Otto the Great captured and sold so many Slavic citizens that the word slave started to change meaning.

The original meaning did not get lost though.

You don't see many Hollywood productions about white slaves.

There are of course other reasons than that.

The white slaves that have been there for millennia in Europe did mingle in with the rest of the people. And over time traces of names were gone too. So it is not visible who stems from slavery and who not.

Slavery from the seventeenth century was, in the white part of the world, race based, very visible, and it was a cross-ocean thing. The whole world was part of it. From people selling people in Africa, to sailors and merchants bringing them across the ocean, to people buying them.
Mixing over time happened too, but visual traces are not gone. Who knows how that will be after a few more centuries.
Also, it is not that long ago, and lots and lots of nations were involved. Way bigger impact on historic memory.

I said that feelings dictate how society moves.
When people feel upset, riots are more plausible than when they feel content.
Feelings are not to be ignored, if lasting stability is to be maintained.

Clearly, you failed to grasp this simple a concept, but that is really not surprising.

You're just upset I saw through your "trolling" that I said you were pissed off and it's true. Your threw a hissy fit at al and made absolutely no sense btw on the thread before baiting the callout like the bitch you are. You are a fucking tard. You are still upset. I speak the truth tour opinion=/=fact suck my clit you're just butthurt. :)

The whole "you are upset! because I say so" is really old, aaaand you didn't know!!!

Also, you aren't really giving me anything real here. You saw through what exactly?
Me explaining to you how social issues have real implications?
Me explaining to you that a real population of real people will have a real impact in reality regardless of your dumb little theories?
Was that what you saw through?

Well congratulations! You GOT me! There is no racism, and nobody really believes there's a connection between racism and that flag - it's all just "bullshit", as you so eloquently put it. The anarchist! The bad-girl with the "I don't need books"-two word reply!

Also, learn what opinion means
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opinion
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observation
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypothesis
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idea
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory

You're welcome.
And if you think that articles on technical definitions will be marred by "partialism", then you truly are a complete idiot. "Then" :D



You got butthurt I saw though your callout with Al and didn't kiss your ugly ass. You proceeded to attack my opinion with feewings like a bitch instead of actual debating because you're a cunt. You lost credibility on how to debate, you hypocrite. And true to the racist white knight you attacked my looks and ethnicity like a loser bitch. I look better than you and you know it. You are trash. Complacent to rot in a basement on disability till you die. How nice for you.  :congrats:

 
 

Oh and social engineering is to play on war time. I don't give a flying fuck about citing sources like you do.  All races are guilty of slavery you ignorant fuck. So why focus on one race? Thats racist. Oh right because YOU are a racist. Go smoke some weed you've been given for free. I'll be productive while you'll remain a drain. I have a degree I'm building my portfolio. What are you doing to better yourself? Aging manchild.

Anything else?

Okay, I'll spell it out for you: I don't think things should be cencored because of crybabies broken emotions, but I also realize that sometimes medicine tastes bad.

Oh, and no.
To a bunch of stupid assumptions you may have made, or plan to make, that I won't be bothered to address point by point, and that you will believe to be true based on my silence

The answer is usually, no, not really and I never said that.

The day you dumb, spoiled brats understand that reality has to do with evidence and not who's-shouting-the-loudest is the day we will finally be getting somewhere.

(oh, and since you will inevitably try to read this as part of the "flag debate", let me once again spell it out for you: I don't think any flag should be banned, if it was up to me. Flag it all, sieg heil, I don't give a shit. I'm saying that I understand - i comprehend - the reasoning behind a ban.
I comprehend it thanks to the brain in my head. You should try using the brain, that is how you can comprehend two sides of an issue.)

(PS: I never said a word about slavery, you ignorant little shit. See? You don't even know who you're talking to, you're just doing the usual rethoric. Here's why I never said a word about slavery: I'M NOT AMERICAN. I'M NOT AMERICAN, SLAVERY AND WHITE GUILT IS AN AMERICAN ISSUE. IF YOU WEREN'T SUCH A RETARD YOU'D KNOW THAT. MY ancestors enslaved WHITE people. Yeah, let that just boil around your little brain for a moment, what, I got norse-guilt now or something? Are the Irish human just like me? NORSE GUILT!!!)

You simply do not understand what issues you yourself are trying to debate.

If you don't actually believe it, and instead just use it as a cheap, inconsequensial accusation, then what good is it? You think you can make things become real, just by saying them? "You got butthurt!"

Is that really what you think?
I'd like to give you enough benefit of doubt to think you aren't that incredibly stupid, so - it's a tactic. It's your best. "You're butthurt, lol."

Untill you can elevate yourself above "ur butthurt", and "i dont need to read lol", then don't expect to be taken seriously in questions that require reading - AND - a basic comprehension of how words and people function.

In other words, grow up and learn to communicate like a person.

We only have it pumped into us about African slaves, not because of the impact or because of it being more recent (which is wrong anyway), but because it can show white people doing something awful to blacks and feed the race baiting agenda, and basically make sure white people stay guilty and dare not complain about immigration etc.

2) Oh, so there are distractions, white flags and conspiracies now? Are they whenever you say they are? Also, this makes a difference how? The flag-brouhaha wasn't a distraction to take your rights away - it WAS an effort TO take your rights away. The "conspiracy" is right in front of your eyes, but you delude yourself into believing it was hidden, and you were so special to spot it.

3) You're right, I'm not gonna come running to fight for Americans, I'm more interested in Norway, you know, cus I live here. You may think that's unpatriotic of me, but you don't understand that in Spain - a patriot cares about Spain, in Peru - about Peru, and so on. America is not more important than other countries - to those countries.

Hun, I claimed nowhere that only white people took/take slaves.
I'm not that optimistic about humanity to single a group out of the human race as a people so elevated that they do not take slaves.

I only tried to answer why the Hollywood films on slavery are not as diverse as the history on slavery is.

Slaves have always been taken, from way before the word slave was coined, till this very day. Slaves in all kinds of colours, taken by people of all kinds of colours.

Systematic shipping slaves by one of the earliest multinationals all over the world did not start before the 17th century by my knowledge. The WIC happened to trade in African slaves.

And family memories on slavery are fresher from people who were slave in the USA than in the families of people enslaved by Otto 1.
Also, Hollywood happens to be in the USA. Makes a difference. They do make more movies on stories connected to American history than on stories connected to non American history.

Hence why I said "if".  Good.

Yeah, and you incorrect as to why.  It doesn't sell and fit the agenda they are pushing. 

I didn't say otherwise about it not happening before the seventeenth century. 

But just as fresh with the Irish slaves, but again, it doesn't sell and who cares if white people enslave other whites.  Yet they don't seem to make many about the genocide of the Native Americans.  It isn't all just a coincidence as to what they make movies about, you do realise that?

Yeah, people of all colors group together with those EDL type groups and all hate Muslims as one, which is the intention.  It happens in the UK too.  And they all love Israel, which is hilarious, considering who's behind mass immigration and multiculturalism and how Israel was founded upon terrorism against the British.

Well, I just mentioned it because of people like Wilders.  It's very much related.  People like him, Pat Condell and Douglas Murray especially are dangerous, because people believe their tripe.

But just as fresh with the Irish slaves, but again, it doesn't sell and who cares if white people enslave other whites.  Yet they don't seem to make many about the genocide of the Native Americans.  It isn't all just a coincidence as to what they make movies about, you do realise that?

I admit that I did not know about the systematic selling of the Irish. Sad to say it does not surprise me that it happened. The Welsh have sad stories about kids taken away. Lots of unwanted UK citizens were deported to Australia.

The history of how the Irish ended up in the USA always was about the famines and the fleeing Ireland for a better life. Thanks for getting me to google Irish slavery.

Give it time, there will be movies. Just like it took some time to get movies about slavery within Ireland, all those girls locked up in convents, slaves for the church for a big chunk of their lives, and their kids sold to childless couples on either side of the Atlantic.

Lots of the "uneasy" parts of history are surfacing. Because history is not only focussing on the great names any more. It's about the "common people" too nowadays. Also it is more showing different sides of the same events.

When I got history in class (Dutch), the VOC and the WIC were seen as great developments. Something to take pride in. Now kids learn that the VOC had the right to fight wars on behalf of their multinational profit, and the WIC was organised crime, a multinational with a licence to loot and pirate. Way more realistic.

To be honest the forcing of the state Israel is behind a lot of this and blamed on Jews when Zionist leaders are stealing Jewish identity. It isn't fair. It is forbidden in the Torah to have a newly established Israel without the Messiah but here it is insulting Torah Jews .

No worries.

Seriously, Hollywood doesn't make films to entertain people, pretty much the sole reason in propaganda.  There was like 185 Holocaust based films in the space of 15 years or something.  They aren't making films about certain subjects because we're suddenly admitting and learning from past mistakes etc.

Where to begin...

1) I'm not gonna apologize for your new-found interest and noobish approach to world politics. Grow the fuck up.

2) Oh, so there are distractions, white flags and conspiracies now? Are they whenever you say they are? Also, this makes a difference how? The flag-brouhaha wasn't a distraction to take your rights away - it WAS an effort TO take your rights away. The "conspiracy" is right in front of your eyes, but you delude yourself into believing it was hidden, and you were so special to spot it.

3) You're right, I'm not gonna come running to fight for Americans, I'm more interested in Norway, you know, cus I live here. You may think that's unpatriotic of me, but you don't understand that in Spain - a patriot cares about Spain, in Peru - about Peru, and so on. America is not more important than other countries - to those countries.

4) We're not discussing the TPP so don't even try, you little straw-grasper you.

Anyway, you are excrutiatingly boring..

1. Noobish? Her perspective is pretty on the mark. She is a smart woman. You on the other hand, are a dude who gets stoned and draws dinosaurs.

2. Here is an idea. See if you like it. How about someone spots something and indicates they have spotted it and you condescend them for being so stupid as to spot it in the first place.
A bowl ago, it probably would not have made sense. A bowl ago you would have said "No...no, man...you wait to see if she doesn't....like....get it and THEN.....then you call her stupid, for not getting it....yah....and be condescending"

Then you smoked a bowl.

3. I am Australian and recognise I can care about the world outside of my shores. In the way many of us felt by for the people in Paris. Many do. You probably don't care unless it happens in Norway. I would imagine that his would extend to if something happen to someone from another country...like anyone here.

4. Conversation can be free flowing. I mentioned Paris above. No one was mentioning Paris. Don't be mad. Smoke another cone and you will be okay.

Could you do me a favour?
Could you freak out. Pretend you find this entertaining. Tell me that I clearly know nothing about smoking dope and so I am embarrassing myself. Ask me to start another call out if I'm mad. Tell me that I am mad. Tell me I am butthurt or something. Maybe obsessive?

If you could do this in a smug, condescending, arrogant manner, that'd be sweet.

Go team stoner!

The color purple is a notable one. It doesn't really matter. There's not really a huge amount of either, but personally view the portrayal of Indian and black history in American fictional movie pop culture to be fairly equal. You may see it as a big difference, and it is different, but one has to consider that Hollywood romanticizes native american history, so thus a lot of americans do too. That's not necessarily true of black history.

This is part of his point. He's describing how the Zionist Hollywood agenda decide African Americans are the biggest victims and are never to blame for their actions even when they do wrong. They create a racist hierarchy of the oppressed with Africans at the very top and the other minorities take a back seat to their issues. There haven't been any recent films but Hollywood is never accurate and whitewashes everything anyway.

So then media conspiracy is the topic. Will agree and it's not only movies. Though disagree somewhat about the hierarchy, at least in reality at the level of government action, native Americans are certainly prioritized over blacks as victims, just not in the movies.

That was more of an attempt to sound sensible, but much rather prefer to view the recent influx of black victimization in the media to be conspiratorial. Now thinking about the urban movie and tv trend of the past, and remembering reading/hearing of the black community taking offence to commonly being portrayed in the media as gang banging thugs, and claiming it a media conspiracy. Now wondering if they might benefit from being equally offended by being commonly portrayed as victims.

Suppose I have no choice but to weigh in here. The videos of the young men talking about the confederate flag earlier on in the thread were honest messages about it's true meaning.

Yes, perhaps some idiot national socialists have adopted that flag as their signature but this does not take from it's original meaning and how it legitimately branched out from it's cultural origins.

Zegh, I am not familiar with how the confederate flag manifests outside of America or how much non-natives know of it's meaning. This said, maybe I can show you something about what it really means and how much even people in my own country have forgotten.

http://www.mhpbooks.com/books/hillbilly-nationalists-urban-race-rebels-and-black-power/

Once upon a time the white lightning and black panthers stood shoulder to shoulder against oppressive fools, each wearing jackets with the confederate flag embossed on it's back. They meant to display a pride in American heritage and a disdain for it's destruction, the theft of it's resources.

The confederate flag has become something it is not even in the eyes of citizens of the united states, and this is intentionally caused by the morons these brave people once protested together.

I think you may want to look into this a bit more, Zegh. I know that you are stating that public opinion is a bit more powerful than people would like to believe, but think a bit harder. What if we all shirked from every single hard push, including that of radical terrorist groups or wealthy elites?


The decay and misery we see in society today would be far more advanced than it is, if people had simply become submissive in the face of adversity in the past.

"As a people, we are fighting to maintain the Heaven-ordained supremacy of the white man over the inferior or colored race; a white flag would thus be emblematical of our cause. Such a flag would soon take rank among the proudest ensigns of the nations, and be hailed by the civilized world as the white man's flag. As a national emblem, it is significant of our higher cause, the cause of a superior race, and a higher civilization contending against ignorance, infidelity, and barbarism. Another merit in the new flag is, that it bears no resemblance to the now infamous banner of the Yankee vandals." -William Tappan Thompson

Hey, I think people should be able to have and use whatever flag they want and I think it's presence on public owned building should be left up to the voting public to decide, but that's a quote from the designer of one of the confederacy battle flags, and saying confederate flags have some original meaning that doesn't really involve white supremacy is like saying the civil war had nothing to do with slavery. A lot of history buffs would like to confine the history of the confederate flag to the context of the civil war, but it has more history than that, and even within that context it doesn't simply mean southern pride. Southern pride is what it means to some people now, and now is part of the history, and evidently that pride is deep enough that some people don't mind being construed as white supremacist by waving the confederate flag.   :dunno:

I'm not even gonna backtrace this, but my initial point is that - emotions are important. Hear me out!

Riots come from bad emotions. In politics, "bad emotions" are called dissent
Dissent costs society, in the long run, more and more.

That is what a lot of this stuff is about, it's not about "feeling sorry for the feels and emotions and the tears and the cries", it's about containing dissent - which is a balancing act between allowing too much, and allowing too little.

Am I for it? Or against it?
For or against what, dissent? Flags? Idunno

Fine, my 5 cents on the flag... I am always in favor of the resurrection of original imagery, if that imagery is indeed innocent. I am amused by the thought of western punk bands trying to showcase the swastika, in order to give it new meaning, although I doubt the effectiveness.
I am completely fine w the swastika being used in various Asian decorations, including a well known Manga series, because intention is what's important.
Now, what's also important is that this manga does not cause costly dissent.
As for the confederate flag, well, there's allready been riots. A lot of people say and express "it's enough with that flag", while others disagree. Dissent has set root.

Now, in my opinion, the wisest thing would be to let go of the flag. But that does not mean that I am unaware of its history, or its meaning outside of racism.
I'm completely aware that the use of that flag, or derivates of - in actual American state flags, have not - this entire time - been motivated by racism. That would be ridiculous. They're motivated by a sense of pride in their history, regardless of the dark side of it.

But we keep coming back to the reality that a lot of people disagree.
That disagreement is a reality, which means the dissent is, and it has to be dealt with, because it can't be mocked, laughed or pointed-at away

It becomes more irritating when they assemble a zombie horde of emotionally underdeveloped knuckleheads bent on destroying something based on a feeling rather than a fact.

It is most definitely the right of the public to deal in emotion rather than facts regarding the direction national or global culture takes, but is it wise? Will it yield any profit, or will it cause damage?

All I can do is advise against this behavior, because I see it causing very harmful patterns that we have all seen occurring in the past. If we eventually all forget the holocaust over time, or the crusades, or the witch hunts, or etc...

Whats to stop them happening again? You never know what records from history might come in handy for preventing bad things from happening based on the lessons we learn from them. On the other side of the coin, great profit may also be gained from being mindful of these mistakes or catastrophes.

Evidentally what it means depends on the person, so yeah let the people speak. I personally don't see it's appropriate or even relevant to any public space other than a civil war memorial, a museum, or somewhere there's a whole line up of the history of American flags.  :dunno:

It is a shame to me that desire can build up to the point of distorting or even erasing truths, never to be completely understood again. See, this is an example of irrelevant desire. These are my feelings on the matter and they mean something to me and perhaps to my mother, but reality remains steadfast regardless of how I feel about anything.

Even if I was to mass an army of people strong enough to change the meaning of what I just spoke of completely enough that it would be derailed forever, the way of it would remain the same regardless of whether or not anyone understood it in the future. They would merely make mistakes and stumble over things they did not understand, because of my idiocy.

Okay fine, we'll contain it to the context of the civil war. I'll just re-direct you back to the backwards quote from the flag designer. The historical fact is a meaning based in white supremacy, slavery, and civil war. Sure, it's a historical emblem and should be treated as such. I don't think atop state capitol buildings is how that's done.

Ahh, actually I am mistaken. The white lightning and black panthers actually used the rebel flag, not the confederate flag. The official confederate flag was called the stars and bars, and looked different than the one you are referring to as the confederate flag.

The KKK also attempted to appropriate the rebel flag as their symbol, but were never as successful. This being the case, their attempts caused the black panther party to distance themselves from it, much to the detriment of the synthesis of civil right's protestors in the past.

Maybe someday, human beings will have the courage and maturity to accept and process things for what they are. Indeed, maybe they will WANT to do this, as they may be developed enough as individuals and as a culture to understand the need for a knowledge base untainted by agenda or envy. 

Maybe someday, people will have the strength to pursue ideas to their conclusion regardless of intent. This reminds me of a quote from the Mahabharata.

Krishna: "Resist what resists in you and become yourself."

There were three official confederate flags, and that's right the first one didn't have the stars and bars. The rebel flag was used but never an official version. Though it's now the most widely recognized of the confederate war flags. You're right, the rebel flag does have the same original history, but not the same full history.

I'm not even gonna backtrace this, but my initial point is that - emotions are important. Hear me out!

Riots come from bad emotions. In politics, "bad emotions" are called dissent
Dissent costs society, in the long run, more and more.

That is what a lot of this stuff is about, it's not about "feeling sorry for the feels and emotions and the tears and the cries", it's about containing dissent - which is a balancing act between allowing too much, and allowing too little.

Am I for it? Or against it?
For or against what, dissent? Flags? Idunno

Fine, my 5 cents on the flag... I am always in favor of the resurrection of original imagery, if that imagery is indeed innocent. I am amused by the thought of western punk bands trying to showcase the swastika, in order to give it new meaning, although I doubt the effectiveness.
I am completely fine w the swastika being used in various Asian decorations, including a well known Manga series, because intention is what's important.
Now, what's also important is that this manga does not cause costly dissent.
As for the confederate flag, well, there's allready been riots. A lot of people say and express "it's enough with that flag", while others disagree. Dissent has set root.

Now, in my opinion, the wisest thing would be to let go of the flag. But that does not mean that I am unaware of its history, or its meaning outside of racism.
I'm completely aware that the use of that flag, or derivates of - in actual American state flags, have not - this entire time - been motivated by racism. That would be ridiculous. They're motivated by a sense of pride in their history, regardless of the dark side of it.

But we keep coming back to the reality that a lot of people disagree.
That disagreement is a reality, which means the dissent is, and it has to be dealt with, because it can't be mocked, laughed or pointed-at away

Weak.

Then again, the gopher could be right and it's just trendy, just like in the late eighties and early nineties there was a sudden popularity of black urban setting type movies. Hollywood tends to do whatever is profitable.
That was more of an attempt to sound sensible, but much rather prefer to view the recent influx of black victimization in the media to be conspiratorial. Now thinking about the urban movie and tv trend of the past, and remembering reading/hearing of the black community taking offence to commonly being portrayed in the media as gang banging thugs, and claiming it a media conspiracy. Now wondering if they might benefit from being equally offended by being commonly portrayed as victims.

They still get portrayed as thug/gangsters too, but they are always in that position for a reason, where as evil white characters in films are usually just naturally pure evil. 

They seem to also to portray that black gangster type as being cool, hence why so many youngsters copy it, especially white boys.

Dissent is important. Nobody ever disproved that. Again, just because you say stuff, doesn't make it true. But by all means, keep saying it, in fact, take that approach with you into real life. Just dictate reality verbally, whenever it's not going your way!

Also, to "disprove" dissent, is absurd. You might just as well tell me war does not exist, or protests or riots. Just dictate, verbally, tell me they don't exist. Tell me the whole flag debate never happened, if you say it, then it's so, isn't it?

You are still mistaking my observation for emotional support, as well. I say: People will riot. You read "I think people should riot", and that is YOUR lacking comprehensive abilities, not mine.

It is how you genuinely believe debates are conducted: By just claiming things for the gallery, hoping you will sway people through sheer manipulation.

I'm gonna repeat my original point, once again:
Just because you're a fat little bullied girl, who "finally" got over being bullied, doesn't mean that all "emotions" should be disregarded.
Collective emotion will culminate into political dissent - which is costly.
This is why flag debates are to be taken seriously, and measures must be taken to deal with the situation, instead of just "I used to be fat, but now I'm over it"-over it.

I get it. You are soooo stwooooong :o

I know that the confederate flag does not "represent racism", I've repeated this multiple times. I'm talking about something else, but you are too simple to get this. Maybe when you grow up you'll learn the deeper subtleties to it, or maybe you'll spend the rest of your pointless life thinking the world revolves around "emotions or not emotions, lol, im not a bully victim everyone, im stwoooong!")

Yes, nazis, racists, mysogynists, they can all go fuck themselves, deep - deeeep up the ass. That includes you, with your treasonous attitude.
You think there is some rule dictating all opinions should be respected?

Oh, yes, you do think there is one. There isn't. Yet another thing you didn't know.

You let the cat out of the bag there. :hahaha: You think majority feelz should overrule reason. Because social engineering for decades conditioned them to think a certain way, why not? Let's allll just be stupid like you. If not then what really you arguing about? Arguing for the sake of arguing like you always do? I know! I made your ass sore in the callout. You thought yourself a master troll and I said you were mad at al and you three a mantrum. So what were you reaaallly bitching about Dino boy? I hurt your pride. That's right.

Also, since you are too retarded to understand

Dissent costs money <---does your brain understand these three words, or are you incapable of comprehending?
Dissent comes from emotions <--- still unable to comprehend?
It is the responsability of the government, to keep emotions in check, in order to avoid dissent <--- Rage understands this perfectly. Your retarded little mind still can't grasp it. Have you asked him to explain it for you? Maybe he will do a better job at it.

Hell, I'm not even against dissent. If you use your brain a little, you'll find a thread where I celebrate it. All I'm saying is that I understand how it works while you refuse to understand anything that isn't simplified down to black/white right/wrong, simple, easy terms, fit for a little retard.

This matter is quite simple: You can't comprehend issues once they reach a certain level of complexity. Ergo, you are an idiot.
It might be that you are clinically an idiot, aka, suffering from some kind of brain damage. If so, I might be inclined to cut you some slack, out of pity.

(and I called you a traitor for letting your naive self be lulled into far-right mysogynism, not the flag thing, you hopeless moron. You are like those dumb sluts who get recruited by ISIS, only to die fleeing, once realizing you have been fooled, like the brainless idiot you are. You're the black republican poster child. You are a traitor, to your gender. You are an idiot, in terms of politics. You are too fat to be attractive. Are you taking notes?)

No.

If not then what really you arguing about? Arguing for the sake of arguing like you always do?
That all societies need to manage dissent. Riots cost money. Money doesn't grow on trees: It comes from taxation of businesses and private individuals. You pay for the dissent of other people. Anything that causes riots must therefore be managed. Sometimes this is easy, other times it's difficult. The flag issue is an example of where it's difficult. Had it been another issue, such as a dictator tormenting its population - causing dissent - causing enormous cost to society - the solution could be to depose this dictator.

Still difficult to understand? Am I using very difficult words for you, such as "depose" or "society"?
If yes, you might have some kind of brain damage. Get yourself checked out.

I mean, this is the 6th time or so that I explain it to you. One final, 7th time, as SIMPLIFIED as possible

1. Emotion is sadz
2. Dissent (aka "angry people!!!)
3. Angry people cause a LOT of damage to society - this damage must be repaired. Eh... damage is destroyness. Destroy in society, in city, angry people smash the glass, smash the car, smashie things!!!
4. Taxpayer money goes into repairing what could have been avoided, by management of dissent. Tax payer - payer of money to gvt - so gvt can haz money! "Management of dissent" is... probably impossible for you to understand... the taking-care-of-ness OF angry-people-ness

If you still don't understand this, then you can go fuck yourself, really... I REALLY don't know how to simplify it ANY further...

Also, I'm not the one saying they SHOULD do this or do that, right? Do you understand that? Im not the boss of society! But I understaaand how it wooorks

if you do the whole "zegh thinks bla bla emotions boo hoo" again, it means one of two things

1. you simply are unable to understand a four-point explanation. You are thus beyond salvation
2. You're the one arguing just for the sake of arguing, since I have tried to explain my position multiple times - now - this in turn has 2 further explanations

1. You are just incredibly insecure
2. You got a thing for Al (which is fucking hilarious)

Indeed, sure, I guess so.

I did not read the totality of what you said but I really should have. Because I looked briefly at the three or four posts and I saw the following:

"fucking Swastika"
"Al's dick"
"dissent"
"traitor"
"ISIS"
"brain damage"
"Emotion"
"sadz"
"Al"

It is like a sadz and emotional wander through a troubled and brain damaged mind.
It is quite interesting though isn't it, that out of the twelve words grabbed at random would be Al would be two of them (and the phrase "Al's dick" wold be one of the phrases). YET you waffle on about me talking about you all the time and being obsessed. It is interesting don't you think?

Apart from that you seem to be losing it, in a Confederate Flag thread, you mention ISIS, traitor, dissent and fucking swastika.

Uh huh. Bet the posts were really intellectual.

So you were talking about me? Talking about my dick apparently? My dick, ISIS, traitors, swastika, brain damage.....it doesn't inspire me. I kind of think it would have read like the ravings of a madman. A mad man who is imagining my penis. I can't tell you how unappealing this is.

Sure it was a fun read. Did it mention how right you were and how stupid anyone that disagrees with you is? Well sure it did. I mean if you pull out Nazism, ISIS and brain damage, you are obviously trying to completely overplay something as bad and immoral, right?

I'm right because I am and you are so wrong you are brain damaged....and a Nazi....and wear a fucking swastika......and are worse than ISIS......and you are a traitor...can't stop talking about Al and his dick.....

You trying to convince the gallery that I'm saying other things, it's very easily refuted, since I am not deleting or removing my statements. They're right there, and they are evidence of what I say and do not say.

I'm not really surprised anymore, but it still puzzles me a bit how this keeps being your best effort: "Look at me, I can't read!"

No, you can't! Lol! In my face, right? Al can't read, and that's somehow on me :D

"Yes, I'm into big, wide, flat faces." you seriously think you are good looking, don't you? Wtf do you take me for some fat-face-fetishist?

Yes, you did hit a nerve. You have actually suceeded in disgusting me. What you do from here, actually concerns me. You realize that your blank, expressionless stare in those over-sized pics you post are disturbing, yes? Like those child pageants who are forced to "look sexy" by their mothers.

Any way, have fun with old men. You're the type, and it's probably the best you can hope for
(Rage didn't bother with you for long, after he saw the rest of you. Again, DID you see his newest gf? She actually is quite cute.)

Sorry I missed you. I had work all day assessing tenders for a project worth millions and then spent the evening with my daughter going to a school graduation.

Indeed.

I think that if someone were either stupid enough or ideologically driven, they could take a series of propositions to ridiculous lengths and then imply the most ridiculous conclusion you can, informed by the previous ridiculous conclusion.

(Example: The Confederate Flag has a history and is associated with many things. One of its associations is with the South's practice of slave ownership, where black people have no agency and rights. The the South fought and lost a war over this.
Therefore all other associations with the flag are dismissable, flying the flag is treasonous, and people flying the flag are lovers of war and slave owning....including black people who fly the flag.
Therefore, their right to fly the flag should be stomped on)

It is a "special" kind of mindset necessary to reach this conclusion.

"He is so noisy!"

The room is quiet. The computer screen illuminates his grotty room.  He reads the IntensitySquared forum. He hears Al's voice above the other voices. That voice he has never heard yet hears so well. Every intonation. It cuts through him. It rattles around unwelcome in his drug-addled brain. He reels and rocks and grits his teeth. He self-medicates with another hit of his bong.

*Tap tap tap* (Types for me to "Play the quiet game Al!")

Off goes the computer. Another cone and bed. The voices will dim sooner or later, perhaps sleep will rescue him.

"He is so noisy" He whimpers a couple of time. Then he dreams a fitful dream. He jerks spasmodically and gibbers. Most of what is groaned is unintelligible except for one word that peppers the nocturnal utterings "...Al...."

Two, because I'm so fucking kind

So, why don't you give it a rest, allready?

Post by: Al Swearegen on December 22, 2015, 03:17:16 PM
Not being an American myself I cannot draw easy parallels to an Australian flag. However, there was an incident in Australian history called the Eureka Stockade. It is a close fit to the Alamo of American history. The Southern Cross flag is very much associated with that incident.
So in the same way, it ticks the box in that it represents a symbol of opposition to the Government.

But is it treasonous in nature? Furthermore, is it redeemable?
The answer to the first is "No". The second is other associations DO matter and are personal and subjective. In the same way that many people may be incensed by someone burning a bit of fabric on a pole because it was a flag of their country, and others may want a flag put out of sight (because it reminds them of bad associations),  others may find good associations (pride, belonging and community)

Many Aussies are happy to fly the Southern Cross flag, not to  incite trouble or protest but because they associate some very positive characteristics with it. Strength, courage. Loyalty, independence of thought, mateship and other positive values that are etched into Aussie culture.  I can not say for certain what every American thinks BUT I am sure that many who fly the Confederate flag feel similar connection and associations. 

To dismiss their connection and attribute their connection to negative associations, whilst promoting the associations of others is ridiculous.

There is a helpful thread (http://www.intensitysquared.com/index.php/topic,18037.msg791438.html#msg791438) for that. Maybe you should post there at least three times a day, after a short meditation.

Weed is good for aspies
Maybe not for ones with anxiety related co-morbids.

I'm not gonna pretend to prescribe weed to people with serious mental health issues :D I'm just saying, weed seems to be an overlooked option a lot of the time :V
Hell, even booze does the trick with a lot of people, except it leaves them very drunk, which is a serious-ish side effect, imo :I

No, it was gummy candies. Tasted pretty good and gave me a good nights rest.

Now I just need to score a medical THC card, because even though recreational pot is legal in Oregon, you can only buy buds at the medical dispensaries. You need a medical card to buy anything else.

A theme of what I say about this is that symbols mean different things to different people. I am sure that some people in the South especially will strongly identify a lot of strong and very real emotions and values with the Confederate flag. Values like Independence, Libertarian and anti-Authoritarian sentiments, sacrifice, rebellion and courage. Some will see the flag and associate slavery.

Well. About the same time as Black Africans were getting transported to the Americas; in chains, on long voyages in unsanitary conditions (from which many died) and across half a world away (far from anywhere that they knew), to a where they were unpaid and indentured and worked brutally, to build up that continent's infrastructure...there was another group of people that; were getting transported to Australia; in chains, on long voyages in unsanitary conditions (from which many died) and across half a world away (far from anywhere that they knew), to a where they were unpaid and indentured and worked brutally, to build up that continent's infrastructure.

As an Australian I do not hate the British, nor do I wave my fist at the union Jack, nor get triggered, nor rip down said flags where I see them.

I do not do this because I am a reasonable, sane, rational person and I see that everyone has their own opinions. Sometimes I will get exposed to things I do not like and that is MY burden to bear, not anyone else's.

Some people are too centered on their own beliefs, not to accept the legitimacy of other conflict points of view. Black and white thinking. You must belief X and if you do not belief X you are an arsehole. What if you belief in Y? You are an arsehole.

An example:

"The Confederate Flag was seen by many as a symbol of slavery and ownership of a people. Therefore it is evil and must be banned, censored and cast down into the depth of Hell."

"Okay but some people see it as simply a representation of the courage of their ancestors to courageously sacrifice their very lives in fighting for what they believe in. It is a symbol of fortitude, courage, bravery, independence and heart"

"Nope. Slavery or GTFO. Fuck your values. Get rid of it"

This thinking is really dishonest and stupid. It limits the person thinking it.

Having said this, black and white thinking is prevalent especially in Autistic communities. (Though I also say that it is a common trait is the extreme or fundamental ideological views - certainly not exclusive communities)

Imagine though someone so ideologically driven OR simply driven by black and white thinking to actually suggest that X likes a flag because of Y but Y does not matter because of Z
X = Southern citizen
Y = thinking the flag is symbolising some positive values such as bravery, independence, courage, unity
Z = Slavery of Africans

I don't move goal posts with you, because I'm not actually debating anything with you. You may think we're having a discussion because you are saying a whole lot of stuff about a bunch of topics, like racism and whatnot. I have, for the very most part, only been making assertions about you, not any of these topics.

I'm not afraid of the word nigger. I'm not against the stupid confederate flag, which is stupid, as a bunch of flags are, like, what, are we into nationalism now? But whatever, you can shower yourself in confederate flags all day for all I care -

my point here
my entire point, since the very beginning, is besides flags or niggers or traitors - its that you're stupid. That's it!

Hi. I'm an ex feminist.
I went into the movement because i believe in equality.
I got out of it, because the feminists DON'T.
During my time amongst them, I did learn a lot. Primarily that feminists are for anything BUT equality.
They are for supremacy and nothing less. I spent enough time with them to learn this in no uncertain terms.
When I chastised them for being hypocrites they called me a "gender traitor". I did this numerous times, and was told that I hated my own gender, and was a "shill for the patriarchy".
I left. Never looked back, and I am all the better for it.
I never thought that standing up for the rights of BOTH genders would be seen as "gender traitorism", but an interest in actual equality. Equality cannot be one sided, by its very definition.
My conclusion...? That feminists have bastardized the word "equality". As time has gone by, I have learned that they do that with a lot of words.
Anyways, the "Male feminists" you speak of, are what are nowadays referred to as "Manginas". Crass but befitting word, I dare say.
I saw many of them during my time among my "sisters". They are a disgusting lot. Many thought that kowtowing to us would get them laid rather easily. In very FEW instances that was the case. But usually not.
Even most feminists see them as spineless, groveling, Uncle Toms.
Most, including myself (but for different reasons) simply laughed at them behind their backs. However feminists find them to be 'useful idiots' wonderful puppets and tools to further the agenda.
Yes, for the Mangina, it IS mostly about currying female favor simply to get laid. And yes, these "Men" are usually into the "dominatrix" types and like being humiliated and dominated by women.
They are a disgusting, effeminate lot that even most feminists won't touch. But bless their (idiotic) little hearts, they just keep trying.
These so-called "Male feminists" believe that living in a world dominated by females would be a paradise for wimpy, arse kissing, self hating males. and they want to do their part in helping the feminists bring this world about. It is more about their own self serving fetishistic sex fantasies than it is about "Women". (even a number of feminists will tell you that they, indeed, realise this).
I had a number of these ..."men" ask me to tie them up or spank them! (I'm feeling a bit nauseated, just thinking of it) I of course declined, politely. (I am British, after all).
The main reasons feminists allow these ..."men" to stick around, are #1. Having a "Man" parrot the feminist narrative gives more "credibility" to the feminist agenda(s). They will point to these "men" and say; "See?? SEE??? a MAN is saying it, too, therefore we are RIGHT!".
And #2. There are some women in the feminist movement that like having docile, effeminate, submissive "men" about, because they simply like to have "men" to dominate. And these "men" are more than happy to capitulate.
They are some of the MOST pathetic human beings on the planet.
They were another reason why I left feminism. Truth be told.... They simply made me physically ILL!

Slave loving or holding really has nothing to do with the image of the rebel flag, do not be distracted.
 Treason, however, well, this was their flag. You know what? They even printed their own bank notes, which are worthless except as historical curiosities.

As a man, brought up in the south of the almighty USA, I do not think of displaying a "Rebel flag"  as anything more than an attempt by some few lost souls  to keep some part of ancient history alive and, in some cases,  remind everyone that, when it is time to "stand up to a powerful enemy, "  as all Americans have always done, those Southern souls did so, despite the fact that it was their own government that was attacking them.

Now, I believe that the Civil War in the USA is over and done with. As Americans we ALL won our civil war.  President Lincoln managed to preserve the Union between the states, despite his flexing of Executive powers for commanding that some of the states rally to the aid of others, attempting to secede from the union.

The re-writing of history, making the Rebel flag a sign of oppression of blacks and a symbol of white supremacy is some new thing that has happened since the seventies.

As my being student of history might suggest, can you guess my reaction when encountering a Union Jack? Yes, I have a restrained loathing for the British. Not only did we as Americans have to tell the horrific empire to fuck off and GO die in war, more than once (!!!!!!!!!), BY THE WAY,  we suffered from their legacy of slavery for another eighty years before we finally banned slavery from our shores, then another hundred years before "some" began to accept "freed slaves"  as citizens.

While we may all be guilty of treasonous acts, one of the images I despise (you should be able to understand) is this:

burgerfat, I have never "cried" about you saying "nigger", I told you then, and now, that I myself made a whole day worth of nigger-jokes on my facebook. Nigger does not make me cry. I have made little nigger-faced smileys, myself, on ms-paint. I took my time to make it. It made me giggle.

What I DID call you, was a "gender traitor"

NOW... you can continue finding this endlessly enthralling - go!
