Third World Reggin posted:I found a better site to get a view of the various parts of our wall. And in some parts there's nothing, because the terrain is a massive pain in the rear end. Mostly, I think it's dumb to paint it as a media move to get clicks and views, when the administration is very loudly and publicly demanding funding to build the wall, is building prototypes for a new type of wall, and publicly derided the existing fencing and barriers as largely inadequate. That's not a media conspiracy to make money. But at least you've walked back the claim that we already have "a wall" to having a mix of walls, fencing, vehicle impediments, or nothing depending on location. From your link: quote:Huge stretches of border have no physical barrier. drat dirty media telling us the administration wants to build a wall just to get the hysteria dollars!

Current event: gonna call my dad.Jarmak posted:This contrived attempt to manufacture outrage to avoid addressing the point being made is genuinely disgusting. I wasn't trying to avoid the point, just failing to. You're right, it is the opposite of whataboutism. It was like someone saying "You claim jaywalking isn't wrong and everyone does it when it benefits them, but some people said the same thing about slavery!" I thought the comparison was disgusting, but having drunk and slept on it, it just seems stupid. I think we had slavery for longer in the US than some countries as part of a terrible strategy for industrial development, and that is the same reason we ignored the patents and copyrights of other countries, but (hot take) motive is not what makes slavery bad.

To hate atlanta is to hate a lot of black people. But my favorite part is all the people from the north or the west who forget about black people.

I think his point is that there are tons of people in the south who are clearly not shithead neoconfederates and those people are conveniently forgotten by people outside the south when they say things like "we should burn down Atlanta" again. We get it's a joke but Atlanta is a pretty liberal city with a very large minority population and if you say things like "gently caress Atlanta!" then the conservatives you hate are going to say "Yes I agree!" my kinda ape fucked around with this message at 21:25 on Apr 7, 2018 |

I happen to live in Atlanta in an area that didn’t get sacked by Sherman because it was used as a staging ground for Union troops. So in the event that we start Sherman’s March 2.0, I’m perfectly okay quartering troops who will show Johnny Reb who’s boss (again). I’m guessing that most black folks in and around the South would do the same, so problem solved.

Internet Wizard posted:"Stop being mean to us, we have lots of blacks" is a weird thing to get upset about I've never lived in Atlanta or the south and almost certainly never will so I don't really have any skin in the game but it's pretty eyeroll inducing when people constantly say poo poo like "the whole south should be destroyed!" and then when someone goes "hmm seems like that would gently caress over a ton of legitimately good/innocent people, many of whom are the very victims of what you claim to oppose" you go "buhhhhhhh I actually meant something different than what I actually said" I get that it's a stupid throwaway joke but I guess if you're gonna use stupid throwaway jokes don't call it a hot take that someone tells you your joke sucks?

Meanwhile, in Syria, it looks like there's been another chemical attack (likely with chlorine gas) that has killed at least 30 people and wounded 400 others in the besieged town of Douma, on the outskirts of Damascus. There are pictures floating around Twitter, but trust me, you don't want to look at them.

Generally the big cities in the south are as generally on the same level as big cities in the north, most racism is closeted or institutional. Anything else in the south is a crap shoot. My wife is mixed, so she has curly hair, brown eyes, and an olive complexion. About monthly someone tell her they only speak English, ask her where in Mexico she’s from, or other such garbage. Mind you my wife is getting her JD, only speaks English, and was born in Georgia. I also see 5 confederate flags on my 15 minute drive to Fort Bragg every day.
