I don’t know about any of that. Seems to me like, maybe, you may’ve taken the piece the wrong way, a ’lil bit.
You appear to believe that the point of this piece is to make you feel a given way. You use the word ‘concern’ but I’m taking that to mean something more like ‘guilty.’ Doesn’t much matter which you meant, though, because the underlying failure here is thinking this is about you. It’s not about you.
Nor is it about making you to feel any given way. This is someone’s story. You take the gist here to be an attempt to emotionally manipulate you with one, very particular, aspect about that person, that bothers you. You mind her being described as black. You take a description that includes her race to be racism.
Asked about it, you make out as if you’d naturally sympathize with the best figure skater, but if they were simply the best figure skater of a certain race, then that description itself would be racist. I disagree. I’m perfectly comfortable with the story’s subject being real. Something about them may have to do with race, be racial, without that being racism.
If you were to ask me, I’d say the fact you’re uncomfortable with this piece this way shows you’re struggling with a personal problem. Other times you’ve stepped up in comments to tsk, tsk any mention of sexism as bitchiness, or learning about racial discrimination in school as racism. That’s messed up. Judging entirely from your comments on Snapzu, you’re through the looking glass right now around bigotry, your opinion is wrong and your feelings are invalid.
Nope, no cult-like, deeply-ingrained brainwashing here.
What does this mean to a mindless social justice warrior?
A rote-memorized phrase by which you mean someone that’s not a bigot.
when you fight racism and say people should be judged on their actions and not by their skin
Notice, here, that racism is assumed to be the normal state of affairs. At least until someone got all uppity about it.
or that women should be judged by their accomplishments and not put down by their gender
Did somebody once tell you not to demean and degrade women just for the sake of it? You poor thing. There, there.
you can't tell us to stop hating people because of their skin color, but to love them for it.
Note, again, the presumption that racial hatred is the natural way of the world. Moreover, that feeling anything other than racial hatred is somehow being forced on the natural born bigot by outside forces.
The same goes with gender: women ask for equality, but get mad when guys don't throw their coats in the puddles anymore, or are debated and treated like a man.
You may meet an actual woman someday. When you do, you won’t be able to hide attitudes and ignorance like this. Nor will you be able to conceal bigotry like this from people that know and care about you, like friends and family. The best you can hope for then will be their pity. Quiz yourself: Has a woman ever asked you for equality? Has any of that other drivel ever happened to you personally? No? Shocker.
Either you want a world of equality where all burdens are shared the same, or you are delusional and should expect to be called out on you crap when you riddle your argument with basic logical fallacies.
False dilemma, Genius. You’re in deep enough, maybe stop digging now. Someone having a race or a gender is not carte blanche for you to be a dick.
Let me tell you something that is going to be hard for you to learn in life, but we should just rip the bandaid off quick: all feelings are invalid.
You accused me of psychoanalyzing you before. When, in point of fact, I simply concluded you’re struggling with an acute case of bigotry. Go on serving up weird little platitudes like this, and one might be tempted to read something into it. All I read into it, though, is that you got this out of The Turner Diaries or some other bigotry-outreach material somewhere. This is likely to be you parroting someone else’s sociopathically-analytical lack of emotional affect. Where do you get this stuff?
This is the biggest thing BLM and feminism don't understand about white men-we operate on logic alone.
Imagine that. People of your particular combination of race and gender turn out to be creatures comprised of pure logic. What’re the odds?
White man can be subdued with feelings and sorrow for moments, but we always wake up to present the logical extrapolation of what people are saying.
Nope, you’re not racist. Or the product of any racist indoctrination. Good thing, or you’d be making my skin crawl.
Right now people like you are mindless
Cults usually have ‘terms’ for cult-outsiders like this. You’ve resorted to this one a few times so far. You ought to get new material. Maybe you should try and trade tower guard duty at your rural Idaho compound for one of the supply missions into Couer d’Alene. Get out a lit...

Maybe you should try and trade tower guard duty at your rural Idaho compound for one of the supply missions into Couer d’Alene. Get out a little bit more. Meet new people.
if you want to do some good for people go to Africa, fight aids; don't pity the blacks who won't call out their problems for what they are: shitty black culture.
Gotta say: Whatever Kulturkampf you’ve got going on is isn’t coming off very well. Nor will you, reeking of untreated mental illness like this.
Don't pity the women in the USA, they have life better then 92% of the rest of the world, pity the middle eastern women who are actually repressed.
With stand-outs like you right now in the American dating pool, I can feel a mote of sympathy, I think.
Make sure the principles you live by are the one you are willing to die by.
Hey, good luck with this whole soldier-of-the-white-race trip you’re on. Maybe by the time you get into junior high you may’ve grown out of that some. May’ve found some way to channel all your so-obvious anger, hostility and nervous anxiety into being something better than a proud but socially-inept bigot. Do make some friends. Try not to creep them out like this, if you can help it. Good luck with all of that, Sport.
