Trad, do you dislike black people?

[glorydaz]

Maybe they're not attracted black men, it doesn't mean they're racist :duh:

I said no matter what the reason might be. Try to read the whole thing before jumping to your conclusions.

 

[annabenedetti]

Actually, Glorydaz, I simply must bring up AnnaBenedetti here:

If you view the White Power Music thread, I asked her the same question:

When the KKK and lynch mobs were a thing, were white people victimized, compared to now, by blacks:

A. More
B. Less
C. About the same amount

She refused to answer this question. I assume, of course, that if she thought that the answer were A or C, she would have been quick to say so, and hastily dispel my "racist" notions.

She didn't.

As I told you, it was a stupid question. Because it was ludicrous to talk about the victimization of whites by blacks when it was almost universally the other way around.

Anna can't do multiple choice questions. It's a left brain thing.

See how easily she gets thrown off course? :chuckle:

Like every other existence, there were people with hate in their hearts and there were people without any hate at all. People get into a particular way of life without really thinking about the ramifications of what's going on around them. But, it's always painful to those without the hate to see the suffering around them, so I certainly agree with your main point.

Your second sentence is why I don't judge people from the south too harshly on this.

 

[annabenedetti]

I don't dislike you. I don't like you, but mostly I don't like how you choose to be, your actions. If you change them I'm happy. I'm not going to invest, negatively, in you. There's no profit in it for anyone. Trad disdains an entire race of people, most of whom he'll never meet or no and who have done nothing, literally nothing to warrant any part of that disdain.

Anyway, if I do a horrible job of something with anyone it isn't something that pleases me. I don't even like the thought of hurting someone who doesn't care for me, which is why I publicly apologized to the Catholic woman in one of her many incarnations for a remark I thought would be taken hurtfully by her. Trad isn't concerned that his remarks about black people might injure and put his faith in a poor light. So he celebrates music that calls blacks N...... and holds views that would make the song writer happy.


It's not a contest or even about that. My failings aren't something I desire or defend. I can be arrogant and condescending and hurtful. None of those are attributes I enjoy or aim to fulfill, however often I fail on the points.


That's just you being angry and goofy. You seem comfortable in it. I hope that you aren't.


Have you ever considered that you may have a problem along that line?

I've appreciated your posts in this thread. Thank you for them, you're a good man, with good intentions.

I'm thankful for the good men here, and I've tried to let all of them know that I appreciate them, and that I'm glad they're here.

 

[elohiym]

Exhibit A:

I even have family members who have married blacks

:vomit:

So what?

Trad is a racist.

Whats wrong with some people personally preferring to marry the same race as them?

Don't be obtuse. He posted a vomit smiley.

I also find black men (as well as some men from different other races) unattractive for the most part and prefer white men.

I dated women of color. Hopefully Trad can keep his dinner down.

If you think that makes someone racist, then your weird.

If you can't discern that Trad is a racist, then you're stupid.

 

[Traditio]

As I told you, it was a stupid question. Because it was ludicrous to talk about the victimization of whites by blacks when it was almost universally the other way around.

Therefore whites were victimized less at that time than we are at this time. That's what follows from what you just said.

Therefore:

We were better off.

 

[Traditio]

Interracial couples means more black people later on down the line. :nono:

Personally, I'd rather die childless.

You should read your post again, you plainly asserted that any white woman that won't date a black guy is a racist, no matter what the reasons.

That's not what she said. She was asserting that this is the cultural perception.

Yeah, I can understand why some people just can't put their finger on whether or not you have race issues. lain:

I genuinely don't understand: are people really surprised by this? I simply assumed it was common knowledge. I basically said as much in the "Mexicans are dumb" thread.

Angel couldn't decide. Then she went the other way. Made no sense to me. Glory essentially tried to use it as a giant spoon, but it beats me like a marching band drum how anyone could miss your position.

My hope is that you outgrow it one of these. It's a waste of time and there are few things less appealing than a man of letters assuming an ignorant premise. It's like a pretty girl picking her nose at the dinner table. Sure, someone is going to overlook it, but jeeze...

Yeah.

And again, it's not a new position. What's new is my newfound love of the music of a singer that Selaphiel pointed out to me.

That's basically it.

"we'd be better off" where have I heard that before....
a little dixie land boys.

OH yeah...... Bocephus

Uh, no.

You may still.

 

[glorydaz]

There certainly is a stigma for white women who don't want to date blacks....they're called racists (whatever their actual reason may be).

You should read your post again, you plainly asserted that any white woman that won't date a black guy is a racist, no matter what the reasons.

That's not what she said. She was asserting that this is the cultural perception.

Thank you, Trad.

 

[elohiym]

Well, whites were certainly better off during segregation. They got to ride in the front of the bus and drink out of the nice drinking fountains.
