    @SlyPokerDog....

    Remember when I called that black sheriff a coon?

    My post was edited and you admonished me via PM.

    Why does he get say racial slurs in my name? Saying I'm saying those words?

    I'm really fucking tired of him doing this shit and it's a double standard that he's allowed to do it.

    There is no double standard. If any of us see something racist we remove it.

    Is saying someone is a devil racist? I'm honestly asking because I don't think it is.

    I'll tag in @PtldPlatypus to get his view on this.

    Umm yeah. Why are we only using that post? He's called me Muslim saying I live by their teachings that white people are devils...

    I'm just sick of the rampant racism That's allowed in this forum...

    He's allowed to call his own devil IN MY NAME...

    Then I'm allowed to call my own coon if I want...

    What if I called you White devil to your face?

    Yes Sly, that woul most certainly be racist.

    Even if I don't put the word white in front of it.

    I'm not sure if calling someone a muslim is racist or a personal insult.

    I do know coon is very racist.

    Devil is just as racist. And frankly, I'm really not sure how you don't know this.

    As I recall, the first mention of the white devil thing was marzy asking if white people are the devil.

    Now, this is not @dviss1 saying that white people are the devil, or that he subscribes to the "Tribe of Shabazz" teaching that @MarAzul continually references--simply repeating the refrain that essentially if we're not part of the solution, we're part of the problem.

    @MarAzul--I would request that you kindly stop attributing (purportedly) muslim teachings to @dviss1, because you appear to be inaccurately interpreting his sentiments.

    I'm not on anyone's side, I just think it's shitty she may have taken someone from a rez's avenue to go to college. People lying about Native heritage is a big thing right now, as it is with people lying about being black.

    Obviously the people that were doing the Braves cheer thing are shitty too.

    But she didn't though. She's expressed this and that Republican racism has been debunked.

    You seem to be swallowing the Republican narrative.

    Ok, I won't say Muslim teachings. But it is the teaching of Elijah Muhammad and Malcolm whom divss claims to be Half like.

    "Ah! So the white man is the devil." <- MarAzul
    "If you don't do anything to help tear down white people's system of oppression, YES." <- dviss

    A strong affirmative in my view! Mohammad could not do this requirement, neither could Jesus.
    A mere mortal white man has no chance to as dviss says. So dviss has this view just like the Man claims to be Half like.

    "No. No I won't. I'm not MLK. I'm half Malcolm." <- dviss in response to river.
    Elijah Muhammad, the author of the Tribe of Shabazz, was Malcolm's mentor and predecessor as the Muslim leader.

    Children of Malcolm:
    Qubilah Shabazz,Attallah Shabazz,Ilyasah Shabazz,Malaak Shabazz,Malikah Shabazz,Gamilah Lumumba Shabazz
    All his children named to honor the Story of the Tribe where White Men are the devil.

    *edited*


    You may differ with me @PtldPlatypus but that doesn't make me wrong. I would drop this in a heart beat if dviss will refrain from calling people, including me racist. *edited*

    C'mon dude...you're better than this.
    It was the Florida State cheer long before the Braves started using it.

    Key word in there is "help". As in "do your part". I don't believe I can end racism. But I can do what I can with what I have where I am to not propagate it, and to address it when I see it. As such, I would not qualify as "the devil" according to the quote above. Not an unreachable requirement at all.

    Did you ask what he meant by that, or did you simply assume? Never mind--we all know the answer to that question.

    I'll leave the salient point, but I'm removing the stuff that continues to claim dviss is an adherent to ToS teachings.

    Stop it, please.

    This will be the last time I respond to any of your posts.

    You say something racist and the shoe will fit.

    Don't start any threads regarding a subject you have no clue about.

    Experiencing racism would be one of those subjects.

    Good luck with that. You know that sometimes you just can't help yourself.

    Ok so I won't say Muslim teachings but I'll say teachings by Muslims...

    Next you'll be asking for my birth certificate.
