after recently coming into a bit of unfair modding on a heavily modded site (not just too much bannings, they're dicks about it as well) i can say that y'all are bitches about complaining about ILF mods.
anyways its not so much that words have power (they do), so much as words have history. words have context, words mean different things to different people. and the feaux-progressive notion of "words dont have power" not only ignores all that, but it also ignores the basic crux on how discussion WORKS.
so basically what the Chief said.

Hmm. Is the racism thing still bad in America?
Cuz I'm not really into feeding young people ideas how the N word is something bad. I know it has context, but why nurture the idea that pushed it into bad context? After all, people have different meanings for different words, even though they may be similar, the meaning can be something entirely different. If people didn't know those contexts, they wouldn't fight. You think that children differ themselves by color or nationality? Nope, their parents do. So why feed the negative? You kill a witch when you stop believing (forget) about her.
We're all citizens of planet Earth. That's the only thing that matters. We're all in this together. There is no separation, except the one we put in our head.

It still exists in mainstream forms of politics and social minds sets. I "think" it is better then it use to be but we still have a ways to go... The current trendy ones that I see a lot are aimed at immigrants [from latin america mostly] and people from the middle east. And when you get out of bigger cities you get all the old resist crap.. suck as it is common for older peeps out towards Aberdeen to use the N word towards our President

Sux then.
We have it too, but it's really dwindling rapidly the last few years. Generations switched.

Moving from one thing to another. It's certainly not as outright than the past in most cases. I think animosity towards immigrants has less to do with race than a general conservative strategy of blowing certain issues totally out of proportion. The fact that most illegals are hispanic certainly plays into it, but it's not the only part of that issue.
The worst thing is American views towards Arabs/Persians/other ethnicities within the Muslim world. Some people really don't understand that not all Muslims are out to get us.
But there's all sorts of intolerance. For example: I'm a progressive and most of my friends are rather liberal, but I get so embarrassed when they start talking about how ALL religions are bad, because they ALL spread hate and ALWAYS cause wars. Then they talk about how they're soooo much smarter and more rational even though they just made these overblown, completely irrational claims that could never be proven using proper logic.
Meh, what'cha gonna do

Your're right. You should start your own forum and run it that way. If you think you're eye rolling and condescension is a form of good manners, then you either didn't listen to your mother, or she did terrible job of teaching them to you.

i always misread your screen-name as Blackened Sole, then i imagine the gothy/animesque grrLy in your avatar is puzzled by a big platter of fresh-out-the-oven burned fishbeing offered to her.
it's.... it's distracting.
