Greetings to the Board !

Posted in someone else's intro thread, so felt obliged to put my own in.

Allow me to say this much, I bet I have an opinion in my bag that I can defend well, and that you will hate, regardless of where you lie on the political spectrum. Perhaps my view, of a good set of views, is having a truth to offend every taste.

Kind of like.... You can please some of the people some of the time but you can't please all of the people all of the time? I just hope you aren't another boring white nationalist. :rofl

are you a racist? please share you 'all-offensive viewpoints.
 
I guess you would have to define racist.

I don't think I am, but my opinion may not be universally held :)

I was posting in a thread about race is why Toloulou has mentioned it.

I think I would rather engage in some of the threads, and offend in context, rather than make a sweeping provocative declaration ;)

I'll take that as a yes.
 
Ill take that as proof you are shallow thinker who jumps to conclusions.

Major Baker is not a shallow thinker. I find it rather interesting that you start a thread that could be perceived as controversial and dangle out information that you aren't willing to further address. Strange.
 
I think most folks have a bit of a political thought that everyone hates.

Welcome to Debate Politics voidwar.

Well, directly above he exhibits some shallow thinking, but perhaps that was atypical.

Whats controversial about an introduction thread ?

Whats controversial about this ?

You said that you had an opinion that people will hate. Most people hate racism. Someone raised the issue of whether you were a racist, and you did not deny it. I think it's reasonable for someone to deduce that you are a racist (not that you are), but a rational person could made that inference. That is not indicative of shallow thinking.

That you state you have an opinion that people will hate. To me, that's controversial.

Nevertheless, Voidwar, welcome to Debate Politics. :cool:

I asked him to define it. Pardon me if I want to know what he's doing with his label maker before I let him glue anything onto me :cool:

You are dangerously close to being another shallow thinker then. What do you think shallow thinking is, if not jumping to conclusions on very little data taken with no context ? Wild guesses, based on bias over a slighted comrade, is NOT reasonable.

I think more than one of you may be confusing controversial with contentious. Its not controversial to stir up debate or disagree, on a forum designed for that purpose. The old high taxes versus low taxes argument is contentious, but not controversial. Nambla is controversial.

Oh brother.

This particular area of the message board is designed for new members to come say hello and introduce themselves--not stir up debate. Just FYI.
 
"Oh brother" is not much of a refutation.

Regarding your FYI, the info seems to be needed by you and Major Baker.

I did say "Hi", and introduce myself. Then you and Major Baker got "stirred".

Baker made a baseless accusation, and was called on his shallow thinking, then you piped in, apparently unaware of what shallow thinking is, and were called on your ignorance. Then you tried to change the topic to what is appropriate in this part of the forum, when you and Baker are the ones who led us away from propriety.

Anyhow, Hi, and I bet you hate my opinion on what is and isn't shallow thinking already :cool:

Whatever helps you sleep at night, Voidwar. :2wave:
 
Does getting a last word in, even when it carries no content, help you ?

When someone directs a post at me, I feel compelled to respond. It's that simple.
 
Its best when the response has something to do with the post, and cop outs, like "oh brother" and "whatever lets you sleep" do not really "respond" to the post, they are just tacked on comments that attempt to trivialize what you can't refute.

It's not what I can't refute--it's what I don't care to refute. And I am being honest. If you want to think you won or whatever, by all means.....
 
Yet another cop out. Oh I can refute it, I don't care to.
Yet I do care enough to put in another content free post ? ?

Blather.

The guy jumped to conclude I was a racist, and he displayed shallow thinking in doing so. You jumped to defend it, by basically defining shallow thinking. I demonstrated this and your well thought out response was "Oh Brother".

Then we had "Whatever lets you sleep"

And now we get "I don't care to argue, but don't think you won" ???

He was being shallow and you exposed your ignorance in a failed defense.

I don't think I "won" as this wasn't any contest to begin with.

He fled and you were unwilling to take the field. Just lobbing cop outs :(
