YOU, plural.
Unless you're even crazier than you appear to be from your last few convoluted posts, I doubt that even you see yourself as being plural.
But then you do say you stand by your statements--so who knows?
I really could not care less about you, actually.
I just post here while I am doing other stuff on other sites.
When right wing creeps stop posting obscenities and harrassment on the progressive sites, I will leave you creeps in peace.
Or whatever sewer you choose to inhabit.

BTW, I am not flattered that 75% of your posts are about me.
After all, there are no other interesting people here BUT me.

"YOU, plural."
nice to know.
"Unless you're even crazier than you appear to be from your last few convoluted posts, I doubt that even you see yourself as being plural."
me crazy? what for?
"But then you do say you stand by your statements--so who knows?"
i'm sure you know.
"I really could not care less about you, actually."
sigh... you don't even remember my name...
"I just post here while I am doing other stuff on other sites."
no, when you are posting here, you aren't doing stuff on other sites. you post here a lot.
"When right wing creeps stop posting obscenities and harrassment on the progressive sites, I will leave you creeps in peace."
this isn't really a right-wing site. is it? i don't really go to progressive sites. lots of back-patting. i do go to a few conservative sites though, just for a laugh. over there, they just let go.
"Or whatever sewer you choose to inhabit."
i think you missed a sentence.
"BTW, I am not flattered that 75% of your posts are about me.--After all, there are no other interesting people here BUT me."
i wouldn't expect you to be flattered. and you are certainly interesting. in a poop-joke sort of way.

When you guys stop jacking each other off maybe you can do something else--like find out what the topic is....

Pardon me for returning to the topic, but one must admit that what the early settlers did to the natives they found here was dreadful. Successive generations of settlers and immigrants, such as my own parents, sought to justify the horrible excesses of their predecessors by constantly demeaning the natives to create some sort of legitimization by reducing the perception of native americans to subhuman status. That's commonly called racism.
But if one puts aside the pervasive racism that one inherits from a racist society, one is appalled and inevitably changed. John Steinbeck once related that an old southern man he met told him "we were taught to think of them as subhuman, because if we thought of them as people we would have wept".

The US is one of the most blatantly racist societies on the planet! Who are you kidding?
The entire house of cards is built upon the basis of genocide, and as a Native American I have no intention of letting you get away with saying that you've changed.
You haven't.

Nice hyperbole.
Yaaaawwnn.

No, gusano, FACT.
But then you don't believe in the existence of FACTS.
However, you manage to spew your racist and misogynist shit at me at every opportunity.
Sort of like that old logical squirrel: Mushrooms are poisonous, but I don't believe it.

"However, you manage to spew your racist and misogynist shit at me at every opportunity."
Actually, I'm more of a misanthrope than a misogynist, mr, but you're beginning to convince me I should give misogyny a shot...
36 - moonraven
I believe that women are included in the category of people, hence a misanthrope by definition has to be a misogynist as well.
But, of course, one can be a misogynist and not a misanthrope [Gratuitous vulgarity deleted by Comments Editor].

I knew it was too good to last.
I'm speaking of your intention not to "dialog" with me that you expressed on this thread.
Sigh.
