I'm not contradicting myself. Why would I vilify someone you have a strong hatred for and I'm indifferent about just to please you? Or is that just too PC 2017 or whatever you mean?

Or you could just turn off the computer, go outside and read a book. It's been great weather outside here in the UK. Instead of playing your own Masters of the Universe you could just ignore a hypocrite who gets attention on social media and just do something relaxing. Buy an adult colouring book, that helps with stress.

I can guarantee you've never been turned down a job because you are white. That's white privilege. I've seen more people of colour get turned down for a job due to the colour of their skin than I care to admit. I benefit from white privilege and so do you. Do you get afraid to the point of shaking, when a cop pulls you over? No. That's white privilege. Do you get looked at funny when you enter a store because you are wearing a turban? No.
Refer back to my previous post and take in what I said about that. I'm not repeating myself again. I want to add to that anyone who believes in that rubbish deserves to be laughed at for their own incompetence. I've experienced more hardship than some people who are in the 'ethnic minorities' (hate that term as well). So don't go there, I know what I'm talking about.

It's called 'positive discrimination', there's nothing positive about it mind you. Of course I wonder if Richardless can grasp what 'positive discrimination' is.

I got immediately dismissed from being applicable for an internship because I was white. I didn't imagine it, I didn't dream it, I didn't assume incorrectly, THEY TOLD ME THIS DIRECTLY!!! Try to learn before making ignorant comments please. Some people here are more qualified to speak on these topics.

I've not displayed any ignorance on the subject. If you fail to understand that transitioning has also become a fad then that's your problem for being close minded.
Kingpin wrote:Transitioning is not about gender politics, as I've said previously it is about allowing the person to feel more comfortable in their own skin, and to present the identity they feel is the most genuine one.
And a lot of the time it is because they hate being a man because they're a feminist. It happens, it's not a big thing but it's not uncommon for radical feminists to do this.
Kingpin wrote:Do you recall which individuals have led you to this conclusion?
I've seen articles and YTs who have transitioned and are diehard feminists. Trying to reason with them is like trying to reason with you.
Kingpin wrote:He is, for the lack of a better word, a traitor.
So essentially because he's not actively pursuing gay rights he's a traitor? Granted his views on being gay sound terrible but I'd have more trouble if he was saying all these things and he wasn't gay.
Kingpin wrote:The sad thing is I can even believe he might've invented the whole account regarding the abuse so that it might engender sympathy for him.
Kingpin wrote:The above quotations alone prove either a genuine, or pantomime case of internalised homophobia.
Which surprisingly you're saying because you don't like him. I think you need to step back and not be so emotionally involved with what he says but still listen to his rubbish arguments. I think anybody who says they've been abused should be listened to to begin with.
Kingpin wrote:Yet we're not talking about Anita, please don't change the subject.
Same thing, they're both Internet trolls although you'd more likely support her because you identity with her politics. Talk about remaining objective Kingpin.
Kingpin wrote:Have you ever thought that maybe, just maybe, most of the reports about Milo's aberrant habits are true?
I'm sure some are. I also believe some are made up by the left because it's a case as usual of one side attacking another while going back and forth.
Kingpin wrote:I like to believe that sometimes we can put politics aside to denounce a person who can be commonly described by both sides of the political divide as reprehensible, who falls so far short of the standard that should be considered a reasonable and decent human being.
Yet you're quick to decide who is on which side without understanding them better?
Kingpin wrote:I stand by my feeling that that has been enough time to build a reasonable guess as to your political leanings. But let's look further, you've been generally opposed to feminism and political correctness in your views, fairly unsympathetic... or even dismissive in regards to transgender issues, you've gone out of your way to defend someone who can be reasonably described as an anti-gay social media troll...
One of the few things we haven't really covered are your views on the environment... but still, you just seem to be more right than middle, as I honestly struggle to think of an issue in which you've presented an opinion that was even minimally liberal.
You've seen what you want to see. You've come across as judgemental towards me and quick to launch into "I know better speeches" when you haven't remained objective at least once in our conversations. I don't mind gay people at all and while I have opposed PC and feminism it's been with very valid reasons. If everybody followed feminism present on say social media the world would be corrupted. Sure you might like that but there's enough problems with the world we need further screw ups thanks.
Kingpin wrote:Well, you might be inclined to think that... given you're white.
I might also be inclined to think it has nothing to do with race and 'white privilege' is absolute nonsense.
Kingpin wrote:Permit me to make a few extra guesses: you're for smaller government and less regulation, you would support a greater right to bear arms in one form or another, you'd be in favour of greater influence by the church in the way the government runs/is crafter, and you'd prefer less influence from special interests?
Amazing Kingpin, absolute fantastic sound judgement as usual except well...
