No-one is asking you to move there: this is a thread about economics.

(by the way: On that basis of 'I'm underwhelmed by a country if it has one crazy killer', are there any countries that get your seal of approval?)

Seriously, ajax, why do you post here? You clearly aren't here to learn anything, you can't be taught, and you aren't influencing anyone who isn't already in the tank for Drumpf. You are hostile to commonly accepted facts.


To give you an idea what real racism is?

I'm genuinely curious what your purpose is here. Are you a masochist? Do you consider yourself a righteous soldier in the fight for white supremacy? Are you just a mild mannered troll?


I don't consider myself a racist but being hear has made me question if there isn't some truth in it. It's good to hear the hate and vitriol from the left. It reminds me how high the stakes are.

Ajax. You literally post on Stormfront.

You are one weird dude. I don't think the stakes are as high as you are.

But I appreciate you answering my questions. Couple more for you: if you aren't a racist, who is? What do you think you have to do to be a racist?

People who act on racist tendencies perhaps? I don't think typing out a random racist thought necessarily makes one a racist in real life. Perhaps you're lucky I'm not more racist?

What do you think you have to do to be a racist?


Are you talking about me as a white person or someone as a minority? I think all people have a tendency to love their own race and want their genes to prosper. If you're white that's racism. If you're not, then you're praised as a humanitarian. The very definition of racist, is more often than not asked by people who themselves are reverse racists.

I doubt that.

No, I have no particular attachment to my own race, mostly because I know it does little to describe me as an individual. I couldn't care less if my race's gene prosper. I would prefer it if smart people from every race's genes prosper.

If you're white that's racism. If you're not, then you're praised as a humanitarian.

Right. The white man is the victim of persecution. I forgot. For some strange reason, I tend to forget that in the face of all the institutional advantages white people have.

The very definition of racist, is more often than not asked by people who themselves are reverse racists.

Even if I've interpreted this garbled sentence properly, I'm still left wondering what the hell a reverse racist is. Someone who's not a racist any more, because they put their racism in reverse?

Or is it people who are racist toward themselves? Yeah, I just don't trust me and all of my relatives...

Only a racist could try to make a term like "reverse racist" in some way coherent.

It's a fact of biology that runs in all living things Schmo. Your race and heritage are an enormous amount of who you are as an individual. Given you don't believe man has a spirit intertwined with his body, I'd venture to say your race/DNA is everything about you. There's nothing wrong with that. We should all be proud of our race and heritage, even white people.

How many times have you procreated? Given that people are having more babies than they can afford, why didn't you adopt?

And despite my presence here, you still don't know what real racism is. This is way off topic. Perhaps I shouldn't be here.

No, it's not. You repeating it doesn't make it factual.

Your race and heritage are an enormous amount of who you are as an individual.

Being human has far more to do with who I am as an individual than the particular subset of humans from whom I directly descended. The focus on race is an arbitrary distraction you've decided to take onboard, because, well, racism.

Given you don't believe man has a spirit intertwined with his body, I'd venture to say your race/DNA is everything about you. There's nothing wrong with that. We should all be proud of our race and heritage, even white people.

No, you shouldn't be proud of your race because it leads it faulty reasoning and racism. Why should you be proud of something you had nothing to do with? It's like being proud of your choice in parents or where you were born. It's idiotic.

How many times have you procreated? Given that people are having more babies than they can afford, why didn't you adopt?

Because I didn't want another child. And I'm of the opinion that women shouldn't be forced to have babies they don't want or can't afford.

And despite my presence here, you still don't know what real racism is.

What the hell are you talking about? Your presence here has been a superb education on what real racism is.

So you don't have any brown pride? Let me give you an example of a quote I found on a Spanish website when discussing the soccer wars in Latin America. Now tell me if this is racism in your opinion or not.

Que nos importa si somos argentinos o mejicanos. El enemigo real esta en el norte. Todos somos latinos.

Do you think it's racist when Del Potro plays at a grand slam tournament and the argentines are all waving baby blue argentine flags? What would the world say if Tennys Sandgren's supporters waved the Tennessee state flag at a Grand Slam? Would it even be permitted?

Because I didn't want another child. And I'm of the opinion that women shouldn't be forced to have babies they don't want or can't afford.


Why is it that the most impoverished people have the most kids. It's the selfish gene within all of us that drives us to reproduce after our own kind.
