You are right, tmac. Every once in a while, I indulge in meta, thinking it will be productive, but it always gets nasty.

This thread has gone on long enough. I'm shutting it down now.

In reply to Yes, the lack of education is

Yes, they're poor because of their culture - look at Mexico, look at most of Latin America.

Hey, T-Mac, since we are not

Hey, T-Mac, since we are not infrequently butting heads, and unencumbered by actually having read your oath keepers comment, I wish firmly to enroll myself on the side of thinking they are delusional, self-important, posturing assholes, who are attempting to fill a huge inner void where confidence would live, if they had any.

And racists, also. Just my 2 cents.

I see that I can get a paper

In reply to It's there in the fine print.

I see that I can get a paper copy, albeit used, for $.99. However, I'm going to buy it as a Nook Book-:)

In reply to There shades and contextual

Let's set the record straight though Genghis, I didn't ask any one to moderate anything. I just commented back to kgb, after he called me a racist. So yeah, Genghis, someone was called a racist, me, and I didn't say shit to you. Did I offend some very delicate sensibilities. Oh well, I guess they will have to toughen up.

I feel so flattered though, people dragging with them from thread to thread a personal anger about some flippant comment I made Oath Keepers, who are in fact white supremacists (= racists) who want to overthrow a democratically elected government and they see this as the first step. Who takes that personally? Seriously? Wow.

Gee Genghis, I thought these meta discussions about other bloggers were taboo. Yet you seem to encouraging this meta discussion about me. I think it kind of sucks.

In reply to 1) In what way would you be

pro-European American

Ya gotta understand, that Europeans, having two millenia or so of stealing everything on the globe that wasn't nailed down, and trying to fence in the stuff they couldn't move, are a little nervous now that information tech is permitting their prey to compare notes, and stuff. They need some affirmative action on the do unto others thing. (also, for dancing--there is nothing scarier than a straight white boy trying to dance)

And how was "Anonymous

In reply to Your interjection is

And how was "Anonymous LULU's" "interjection" "helpful?" Or was it "welcome" under some obscure provision of the TOS that less-favored participants aren't privy to?

In reply to If I'm discussing racial

There shades and contextual differences of course, but we don't have time or energy to parse that much or explain the intricacies to people. It's a simple rule, easily explained and enforced: don't accuse of other dagbloggers of racism.

Michael Wolraich — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 18:17:19 +0000

In reply to Please explain how kgb got

Your interjection is unhelpful and unwelcome. Please stay out of it.

Please explain how kgb got

In reply to I quit commenting before I

Please explain how kgb got "hit" by someone making fun of two members of Oath Keepers (a quasi-militia group with, to be charitable, fringe minority views on government and the constitution), men who don't even live in kgb's home state?

What kgb did was the equivalent of a "flop" in basketball. When no foul was called, he cried to the refs, who were right to ignore it. He's the Danny Ainge of dagblog.
