It’s a little ironic, don’t you think?

That the same people who scream about needing ALL the guns to defend against tyranny are the same ones who say the Civil Rights Act “outlawed systemic racism”.

Pretty sure the Constitution outlawed tyranny so whatcha need all them guns for, huh?

I think this is a very biased and inaccurate assessment of the issues of gun control and CRT and would caution you about believing/promoting such an extreme world view.

@MalteseFalconPunch Which word didn't you understand snarly?

@MalteseFalconPunch Your statement about ALL people who don't support gun control are also the same people who dismiss CRT propaganda. It's biased, inaccurate and derogatory, and again, I caution you from promoting and internalizing that world view.

@MalteseFalconPunch What else would you call it if not propaganda?

My understanding is that not all black people are poor. Another generalized and inaccurate statement, that again, I would caution you from believing and promoting.

@MalteseFalconPunch I never said any of that, we were actually speaking of your statements and beliefs and this is the second time you've attempted to change the subject.

Anything else? I'm assuming this "discussion" is only going to go downhill from here...

@MalteseFalconPunch I did read it charitably, and gave you feedback as to how it sounded and came across. It didn't seem well received.

I think the people you are referring to make up a very small and irrelevant portion of the population.

I am recommending to people that they make such comments with care, for the very thing they are trying to accomplish(real, effective change on many social issues) will be lost in the partisan snipping and back and forth. We need to come together, not push each other apart.

@MalteseFalconPunch You're a lousy and disingenuous debater. You change your attitude, responses and subject at will and seem to be trying to upset me purposefully instead of genuinely continuing the discussion.

Anything else?

@MalteseFalconPunch Strawman responses. Not believing the theories behind CRT is not:

[quote]you think people that don’t believe systemic oppression of black people exists is a “small minority”?

It’s literally one of the two dominant parties in the US. What are you talking about?? It’s half the government…

@MalteseFalconPunch I think its a canard. I think race is being used to obscure class issues and distract from where the issues are...the 1% and the political class.

@MalteseFalconPunch I'm not being slippery at all. I answered your fucking question dingus.

Perhaps because they disproportionately make up the lower classes.

@MalteseFalconPunch So, you asking these questions in good faith? Seems to me you are trying to impose a purity test here. Are you interested in my answer? Or are you looking for me to say something that you can dismiss and criticize me for?

@MalteseFalconPunch No. You aren't interested in my honest answer. You're waiting for me to say something expected, then you will dismiss and mock me.

Go jerk yourself off with your like minded friends, and stop acting like you are a genuine debater and your positions are reasonable and rational.

@MalteseFalconPunch My position is that you are an indoctrinated blow hard who isn't interested in discussing issues. You have an agenda, plant a flag and then dare everyone to knock you off.

I approached you politely about being too partisan and posting such things like this and you got uncomfortable because all you know how to do is fight.

Then you tried to distill the conversation into getting me to say something about black people and systemic racism that you will then use to dismiss me, mock me, and talk about me to your buddies on here.

Go ahead and jerk yourself off with your like minded pals, I know its what you want to do.

But don't pretend you are arguing or discussing things in good faith.
