    Shit dude... humans are horrible to each other. How have you not seen that? Spend some time on the road, or in video games, or at a school. Especially when they're anonymous. That's when the true nature of people comes out.

    People are assholes. They find weakness and they exploit it. They take advantage of the weak. They hurt because they can. Were you not picked on as a kid? People like to think that we have evolved, but we haven't. If something horrible happened tomorrow, and the power went off and the food stopped, it wouldn't take long for people to start killing each other over food, water, etc.

    I could escalate the shit out of this idea to prove my point.
    I'm definitely in category 2 if people think I'm racist.

    I get it. People ARE assholes. And yeah, who wasn't picked on? It helped being one of the biggest kids in my class, though, and then having a brother who was the biggest kid in his class. I live and work in a close-knit community where people actually do all sorts of things out of the blue and unexpectedly for one another, have more patience and tolerance for others..... and I live in a community I consider to be a bit redneck.

    And then I come here. I literally pray that for most of these S2 folks it's all a coward's persona, hiding in anonymity (I think most of the folks are cowards, but they do put up a "tough guy" attitude here cuz that's pretty easy to do behind the keyboard).

    The word is racist when used in the context he used it in. That's exactly what I said that you just glossed over.

    To be fair, how do you expect people to actually read or glean anything of value through all the spew in here?

    I rode the bus with High school kids from Kindergarten on. Being poor and fat, Dviss and his ashtray story ain't anything I haven't had done to me. Hair caught on fire, clothes burned. Stuff poured on me.
    Beaten, pantsed. Try being the big 8 year old kid on a bus full of teenagers.


    The fucked up thing was as I got older and bigger and fought back I'd get dragged to the principal and made to apologize for defending myself.

    Thought that was bullshit then and seeing how people act like a bullshit apology is just something you have to do I think I know where people get that. They're taught that lying is ok as long as it is an apology.

    Every time I call out something racist you come outta the woodwork. In this instance you didn't even read said quote to get context. You just jumped to parsing shit when you coulda just read his post. He still doesn't think it's racist either. To him it's not only gold, it's pure...

    You were bullied by kids. That sucks but I'm sure we all did.

    These were grown bearded men who did that shit to me.

    Men at least in their 30's...

    Urban dictionary was made by racist whites. Don’t quote that.

    Isn’t your problem? Sounds like you’re part of the problem.

    Held down and suffocated to the point of almost passing out by my uncle's 25 year old friend. Being 5'9 and 230lbs in 6th grade makes you a target.

    In middle school they let us wrestle in gym. One kid got me in a choke hold and I freaked the fuck out and almost killed him. Freaked the fuck out.

    That was a regular occurrence from elementary school. My mom and grandma both worked.

    You're right. I am part of the problem for not caring about your ignorance. But I've also that nobody is going to change your ignorance but you. So, I can either argue with you, or I can let you remain ignorant.

    I have better things to do with my time.

    Well I didn't. I took them as being uninformed to the context by ignoring my pleas for him to use that very same context.

    He was arguing and hadn't read what @Nate said.
