What bothers me is not who's being included as a consequence of these conscious decisions, but who's being omitted.

Frankly, ignoring whats happening here is inviting the eventual consequence.

Okay, you got snotty with me - fine - now take your medicine. You come at this from a shallow intellectually vapid yet self righteous position. Allow me to educate you.

This is not a pathetic hobby - this is called social / political / cultural / economic commentary. It’s what I do. Some think I do it very well.

And you are naive and shallow to think these things don’t effect you - you have no ability to live totally outside of and independent from the culture in this country, whether you give a damn about it or not, and whether or not you are too ignorant to understand it.

But you know that deep inside, which is why you had to throw out infantile charges like obsessions and so on. That’s just more of your tiny brain capacity - there is zip zero nada in a casual observation that would indicate OBSESSION - only in the mind of a sophomoric moron.

Sorry the shallow intellectually vapid self righteous position is yours. Does it really matter how many people of what color are in a commercial? Really? Does your life suddenly get better if all Target commercials now only contain white men? Mine doesn’t.

It isn’t social/ political/ cultural economic commentary. It’s whining about stupid things that don’t matter. It’s pathetically stupid when the NAACP releases their annual “how many black folks on TV” “study”, and your “counting” is just as dumb. Everybody needs to get over looking for their color on TV.

It doesn’t effect me. It’s not about living outside of the culture, it’s about not being shallow enough to play the identity politic game. Again: how does your life get better if there are no longer black people in Target commercial? Be explicit.

If you’re counting how many people of what color are in which commercials that’s obsession, and there’s nothing infantile about pointing it out. You have the same obsession as the NAACP, both of you are so busy looking at who’s what color on your TV you it matters. It doesn’t. Any time I’m watching TV and notice how many of what color are on it I know the program sucks and its time to watch something more interesting.

There’s no reason for anybody to count the colors. Those who do are obsessed. Those who get upset having their sad obsession pointed out are sophomoric morons.

you miss the point you dumbass...I never said it mattered to me personally - I never said it affected my life.

You are just too self consumed to even notice shit that doesn’t impact you. Go away with your self righteousness and your hatred and your vapidness and your total inability to carry on an adult conversation.

So back to the kiddie table for you, let the adults finish our chat. And if you don’t care about the thread, GO THE FK AWAY!!!!!!

You know I’ve decided that political websites are just not for you. No problem with that, we all have to know our limitations. You are too limited for this kind of thing.

Why don’t you rip Newsbusters? Why don’t you rip everyone else? I mean, everyone here is at least mildly interested in it but you, so again, just go the fk away and back to your sports thread or your porn or whatever you do care about.

You don’t have a point. You haven’t made one yet, you’re just complaining, which isn’t a point. If it didn’t matter to you personally you wouldn’t rant about it so much.

I notice plenty of things that don’t effect me. For instance I noticed that race obsession happens to people of every color, and make all of them say stupid things. And they all take it very personally when you ask why it really matters. And they never actually answer the question, they just start calling you names.

I care about the thread, that’s why I clicked on it. I just happen to think that the people complaining on the thread, including the original article writer, are being silly and really need to get over their race/ gender obsessions.

I see you hate your family, are obsessed with football and basketball.

See, told you this political forum stuff was not for you. You made a couple of coherent comments about job automation, but generally, you’re very shallow and major in minor issues.

Back to your porn now.

You’ve decided you don’t like having your faults pointed out. Lots of problems with that, prevents you from knowing your limitations. Like the fact that you’re obsessed with counting colors on things that don’t matter.

I did rip newsbusters for it. I’m on whatever thread I want, and if you don’t like it too damn bad. You’re free to just away and count colors.

Ahh now you go through the past looking for more ways to through insults. Sad sad sad. But predictable. Nothing but insults from you. Still haven’t managed to explain how the number of black people in a commercial negatively impacts your life.

Funny the guy that can only throw insults insisting the other one is shallow.

Do you believe there is an widespread effort underway by much of popular media to marginalize white males, their social status, contributions, or role in the history of this country? Do you think those that do are race obsessed and suffering paranoid delusions?

Follow up question: have you ever heard the term 'white privilege'? Do you have any idea why anyone would concoct such a term?

Not at all, do it myself all the time. What ticks me off is intellectual midgets not being able to keep up with me, but insisting on butting in when not invited, and too gutless to do anything but hide behind a screen name. Game, set, match, thanks for playing, drive safe.

No. Yes. Heard it plenty. Because they’re race obsessed idiots, usually of the liberal guilt kind.

There are people on both sides of the camp that just spend way too much time worrying about race. On the liberal side there’s the “white privilege” crowd, on the conservative side there’s the “we’re under attack” crowd. Then there’s the vast majority of the country who get headaches rolling their eyes at both sides. Really, everybody just needs to get over it. Every single person that thinks race matters, on either side, is the problem.

What if we really are under attack?

Ignore it while they eat our lunch? Doesn't sound like a very good plan to me.

Oh look more insults. And denial. And ignoring that it’s a public forum and nobody needs to be invited. And declaring yourself a winner. While still not attempting to actually explain your point. It’s like your a bot, you follow the flame war playbook so religiously. Heck I could probably write your next post for you. I guarantee it will continue to not explain how black people in commercials makes your life worse.

We out number then like 6 to 1, and we’re better armed, better fed, and better funded. If we’re under attack we’ll win. And really if sticking black people in commercials is the best they can muster up for an attack we already won.
