I mean if you respond to a confederacy meme with a totally irrelevant false-equivalency gawker article...

@Dynamo Frokane

But by all means tell me about those lazy blacks, sounds like a fascinating mdk rant in the making.

@Dynamo Frokane

So I guess we're back to page one of the liberal playbook, huh.

Whataboutism (also known as whataboutery) is a variant of the tu quoque logical fallacy that attempts to discredit an opponent's position by charging them with hypocrisy without directly refuting or disproving their argument, which is particularly associated with Soviet and Russian propaganda. When criticisms were leveled at the Soviet Union, the Soviet response would be "What about..." followed by an event in the Western world.

@Dynamo Frokane

that..... wait, that was an argument? Are you arguing that I "call blacks lazy" and/or that there has been no immigration or reproduction of African-Americans for any reason other than cotton slavery?

Because I had assumed it was humor. But if that's serious, there's all KINDS of shit I could say about it.

So in Gawker the other day all the evil leftists were complaining that if illegal immigrants get deported they'll have no one to work in their fields or clean up their house for slave wages

I think what Dynamo is inferring is, don't put all left wing stereotypes on people whom you see as leftists. If you're talking to Dynamo, then speak to Dynamo and only hold him to account of things he has said, not an entire ideal/party that he/she might not be apart of.

@POOHEAD189

That's all well and good. I'm not generalizing on purpose and if I'm not mistaken, I've owned up immediately every time I do it. What I'm not gonna do is swing by the thread, see a post about "No, the people I see who did the milk meme totally WERE racists though," and pretend that the other 23 hours of my day didn't happen and I don't already know better.

I mean for the sake of manners if you're going to ping someone its probably best that you're representing their ideas fairly. If you want to make broad statements just do it in rant/monologue form like doggo or cat man usually do.

@Dynamo Frokane

I always quote my jumping-off point. It's like Whose Line, except my points do matter.

And again, just so we're on the same page -- the milk thing was never a real anything at any point ever. The people you saw doing it were having a laugh. I thought you should know.

Look, in all honesty, I can't remember what you said two pages ago (though I'm pretty sure it wasn't that Rin was Best Girl, so you were probably wrong). I don't think about you that much. "Politics" to me is bigger than my conversation history with Dynamo. In the conversation of "Politics," you're the strawman, not Buzzfeed, as far as I'm concerned. And that's Buzzfeed. Now and then I may reference an idea that didn't bounce off your head first. That's gonna have to be okay.

Frokane's Mildly Politcal Hangout Thread

you deal in black and white extremes

@Dynamo Frokane

how dare you insinuate that I'm a racist
