"Everyone welcome" is now unacceptable.

but it didnt. It didnt adress the point of my podt at all.


thats a lie.

Thats the claim I've been making the whole time.

You just weren't paying attention or didn't understand
Your claim:
If tolerance required tolerance of intolerance it would be self contradictory

I gave an example of intolerance being tolerated, and you agreed with it.

Your claim was proven false.
 
Agreed. I think the sign itself was innocuous, but then she may have been teaching the children in the classroom completely open borders and that illegal immigration is fine. If she was an activist for illegal immigration, she should not be teaching in public schools.
Good lord.
 
I guarantee they're going to start saying "well if you call us evil it doesn't matter so we'll just be evil."

Everything else, even the dumbest versions of it, lines up with the abuser's playbook.
Unfortunately this is true and many of these people don’t want anything but to give evil and then spend time trying to overcome evil in return so they can give themselves a feeling of righteousness.

In my own life, and even in this forum, I am finding when dealing with hateful people I can be less and less the person I am in real life. A person who seeks understanding and kindness.

That leads to the sad fact that this forum is not good for me, my walk with Christ, or much of anything I try to foster. This place may be my eye that I have to cut out so to speak.

Context?

We were talking about this thread. Intollerance of people. Racism bigotry.

Not ice cream.




I gave an example of intolerance being tolerated, and you agreed with it.
Yes and I said it doesn't have anything to do with my point though.
Your claim was proven false.
Not even close

The point is, to suggest that 'tolerance requires one to be tollerant of the Klan or the Nazis (who are the embodiment of intollerance)'....is contradictory.

You added that Klan and Nazi part as race baiting after your more general, Humpty Dumpty claim was proven false with your agreement.

No. That was the subject of this conversation from the beginning.

Your lack of reading comprehension is the issue.

My reading comprehension must be pretty damn bad. I see nothing in that statement of yours about Nazis or KKK.

The statement simply isn't true.

That wasn't the only statement.

Context.

The entire conversation has been about intollerance, not of ice cream, but of people, black people gay people, etc


I have explained that to you over and over going back to Friday (post 476 and 485, for example) yet you still dont get it

Your lack of understanding is kind of amazing.

It's false.
 
In the context it was made it is not false.

The statement stood alone in a post by itself.

The statement is false. Trying to say it is true in some cases, just exposes it as false in its categorical form.

Nonsense.

how in the world do you still not get it?

The statement is correct.

The ****ing fascist assholes can go **** themselves. Especially dear leader the orange ****ing Jesus scumbag piece of shit.


So she wanted a “sanctuary classroom,” eh? Keep the innocent little hearts and minds in her safe-space corner of the planet free from all of those terrible Trumpian bigots roaming those other classrooms and schools across America?

Why do progressives think that that’s educational and not a political statement that doesn’t belong in a 6th-grade world civ class? Maybe because the philosophy is get their minds when they’re young so their hearts will follow?

The sign is a statement of both national education policy and federal law.

The district is in the wrong to tell her to take it down.

Those responsible need to find another line of work.

No, it's true.

No, it's true.

You change the statement to include race baiting, and insist it's still true. After earlier admitting it isn't.

I didn't change the point.

That is what I've been saying the whole time.

I've been explaining that tobyou since Friday (see posts 476 and 485).

Still not a true statement.

So she meant “Everyone is welcome in America”? Why not say that instead of “here”? That would have been an easy fix to her dilemma, unless that wasn’t the political message she was trying to convey.

The district is in the wrong to tell her to take it down.

Assuming “here” was her classroom, that was a political statement that didn’t belong on a wall there. She was given an opportunity to remove or alter it. She didn’t. That was her choice. She’s going to discover that when it comes to indoctrinating kids in a public classroom, there is no free speech. You follow whatever curriculum your district has told you to follow and that’s it. That’s part of the problem with this country. We’re busy teaching our kids what a hateful and terrible place America is just so they can graduate ignorant, illiterate, and hating white people or wallowing in white guilt.

Those responsible need to find another line of work.

The only one finding new work is the teacher who thought the rules didn’t apply to her.

I'm only interested in the statement as you made it, and as you admitted was false.

I love how "trumpian bigots" infer so much from a simple everyone welcome sign. No wonder people different than themselves such as the LGBTQ community makes them apoplectic.
