@SC011001@mussy03_@shoegazerace Again by your logic black people aren't oppressed because there isn't a law that directly says black people are lesser. I'm not saying Irish or Slaves etc were as oppressed as black people, I don't even know why you're hyper fixated on this
@SC011001@mussy03_@shoegazerace Again you're focusing too much on legality as an indicator of racism, obviously there was never a law that singled out Irish or Italians or Slavs, the same way there isn't a law today that directly says black people are lesser, yet black people are still indiscriminately targeted
@SC011001@mussy03_@shoegazerace The founders didn't agree on whiteness, Benjamin Franklin famously never considered Germans white for example, and whiteness as an arbitrary concept is a basic and necessary principle of white supremacy. Also if you think legality is solely what defines whiteness u aren't serious
@Napoli27435209@mussy03_@shoegazerace Race isn't a leftist concept, the leftist concept of race is that it's arbitrary and an arbitrary justification of class based discrimination
@SC011001@mussy03_@shoegazerace In terms of legality they weren't discriminated against in the same way as black people obviously but socially they were still considered non white, do you think whiteness is a real and objective fact? Because that isn't true
@glizzymcguire5@WallisJMoore Why is one book funnier than other? I have both on my shelf and your answer will decide what I read next after the analysis on the rise of Mussolni I'm currently reading btw
@NJ68W@Brokenwing777_ I agree, but contrary to both of our opinions most players will take the easiest route to gratification and camp the easiest route to the dismay of naive players who expect the best of their fellow humans. For what it's worth I'd rather play with you. Jammies99 on Xbox if u want
@scriptumsent Nah, you should use the language most understood by most people, not the language most correct technically, which is what I think DFW understood he failed at most in his writing which most disappointed and dissatisfied him
@diandrasdiandra Masculinity is just over scrutininized, and it's not even wrong since masculinity is so rooted in misogyny, but still it leaves Bond an impossible character to cast. Next Bond should be a woman for that reason. Who cares about a black Bond, a woman Bond is the real challenge
@SC011001@mussy03_@shoegazerace Yes they were lol white has always been an arbitrary class, one of our founding fathers in the U.S. even considered Germans non white at one point lol
@drumm_colin To the masses, yeah. People who read for leisure can't understand your point because they equate knowledge with fun while most people equate learning with the stick-up-the-ass education we're accustomed to
