I haven't insulted you — counterpunch
It's not me playing identity politics - it's you! — counterpunch
Given that half of government and all of the media are steeped in political correctness; given that Kier Starmer leapt to his knees for Black Lies Matter, and unequivocally endorsed gender self identification - and that the London Mayor just spent £1.3m of public money promoting Black Lies Matter on New Year's Eve, given that Parler has been banned by Google in an ongoing politically correct crusade against freedom of speech, I'd say, they're getting there. Which takes me back to where I came in - with StreetlightX, saying he would murder racists. So how is any of this funny? — counterpunch
It's difficult not to take that personally. — counterpunch
I think maybe, your problem is that you assume your values are far more universal than in fact they are. — counterpunch
I'm trying to discuss those problems civilly. — counterpunch
There is no alternative to acting on the basis of belief — counterpunch
Why the hell would you NOT take it personally? — Kenosha Kid
Trying to not be PC? It makes you appear alt-right. — praxis
Nah, someone who gets their panties in a twist about a response to the equivocation of racism and disagreement — StreetlightX
It [recent insurrection at US capital] doesn't demonstrate anything about racial dominance - as far as I can tell. If you think it does, please explain in what way. I don't see it. — counterpunch
I'm here to discuss philosophy - and frankly, you're letting the side down by dragging the conversation into the gutter of the giving and taking of personal offence. — counterpunch
Philosophically speaking, given that your lot appeal to a subjectivism. how I appear to you says something about you, but it says nothing about me. For you, reality is subjectively constructed. You are responsible for how I appear, not me. So, what is alt-right? Is it like Viet Cong, or the Red Peril? Some menacing name conjured up to stereotype, and demonise anyone who opposes the left wing, politically correct cultural strangle hold? — counterpunch
Don't you not think it's incredibly hysterical and childish - and that free speech and a thick skin are better things to encourage in the next generation than a hair trigger sensitivity to offence? — counterpunch
I'm here to discuss philosophy — counterpunch
Remarkable that you can stereotype and criticize stereotyping in the same breath. I merely mentioned that you appear alt-right, meaning that you reason and say the same sort of things that alt-right folks do. It's not a good sign simply because you've identified as a centrist. It indicates deception.

Who was recently whining about StreetlightX's manner of expression? — praxis
Black Lives Matter were just applauded uncritically by the left wing media for killing around 40 people, causing hundreds of millions of dollars of property damage, for looting shops and burning businesses. ... I'm a philosopher. I seek fairness and impartiality in my reason. — counterpunch
Absolutely, and I'm Wittgenstein — Maw

You're like, a bit dull aren't you? — StreetlightX
You're a traitor to this country. There's nothing left to say about you. Disgusting, and utterly pathetic. You can't die off quickly enough. — Xtrix
Can you explain that?
— Brett
I could, but I won't — Maw
What a shocker. Please drop dead. — Xtrix
I heard antifa fucked your girlfriend
— Maw — Xtrix
Which makes you even more of a cancer. — Xtrix
With the number of racists and fascists on the site atm, I'm worried you think I was being serious.
— Kenosha Kid — Baden
I'm getting tired of your selective sensitivity. It wasn't there when it was black people doing much less worse stuff than killing police officers. Don't pretend to be rational when you're stinking of bias. — Baden
Just nice to know you’re not fooling anyone with this act, probably not even your self. Your hypocrisy and pro-Trump bias is obvious. — Xtrix
Go rest your head Brett. — Xtrix
Drop the act of being objective or truly interested in any way. Just jump right to the complete rationalization of what happened yesterday. Spare yourself the mental gymnastics.
— Xtrix — Brett
Still don't understand the rationale of having a user on this site who repeatedly cites and parrots nefarious lies of radical rightwing publications, and then acts like he never believed in it to begin with when he's called out on it, or just ignores it entirely and moves on to the next fabrication to waste everyone's time with. — Maw
No you fuck, you don't get to make shit up and ask to be proven wrong. — StreetlightX
Really, don't worry your pretty head about it. If you really can't figure it out, I don't want your brain to fry from over-exertion. — StreetlightX
A point people like you also conveniently ignore in favor of licking the asses of your corporate masters. — Xtrix
No one needs to respond to your made-up bullshit with actual figures other than to point out the fact that you're making shit up. — StreetlightX
People like Brett really think this is character creation in D&D or something. 10 points to charisma! -4 to humility! Fucking larping rubbish. — StreetlightX
But that's neither here nor there, given that making shit up based on lazy preconceptions is a shit way to argue. — StreetlightX
It's not a matter of agreeing or disagreeing its the fact that you fabricated shit out of thin air and expect anyone to put in any effort to take that shit seriously. — StreetlightX
No, I'm not engaging with shit you pulled out of your arse other than to call it out for having been pulled out of your arse. — StreetlightX
