I don't think you know how often we are seeing and hearing the blues these days. I hope the blues realize we live in a different age and I hope they understand that most, if not all reds make enough money to afford computers, TV's internet, cable TV, smart phones, newspapers and so forth. So, you should not view and automatically associate everything bad that we say about them and about the blues and see them say on a regular basis with foolish stereotypes. Oh, the faster you accept that reds aren't like the blues in many ways, the sooner you'll be able to understand what you will and will not be able to get away with and what you will be unable to obtain or accomplish and where we will be able to comprise on some issues.(12-14-2018, 02:01 PM)Classic-Xer Wrote:(12-13-2018, 01:01 PM)Eric the Green Wrote: The blues prefer real solutions to problems than merely arousing fear and prejudice, which is what the reds offer.
Well, as one who is supposedly an evil, sexist, racist, fascist, Bible thumping white male, I'm going to have to disagree this for OBVIOUS reasons that you seem unable to see with your own eyes, hear with your own ears or recognize/accept with your own mind for some reason or another. Now, I don't know what your problem is and what your problem is caused by or what your problem is about to be honest because your a dead man or a liberal slave or a poor liberal peasant who has no say or choice, as far as I'm concerned. Who kills you or enslaves you or threatens you and which angry blue group ends up doing it or is picked to round you up or controls you with fear doesn't really matter to me either like most blue problems and issues relating to blue problem areas don't matter to me or reds in general.
In reading these pages, I don't read them as presenting fact, but as presenting worldviews, and quite often vile stereotypes. As such they are often very much incorrect.
In this case, not all reds are evil, sexist, racist, fascist, Bible thumping white males. If anyone had claimed they were, they would have one messed up worldview. As is, a red person claimed it as a common blue stereotype, when if fact is is a common red stereotype of blues. It reflects poorly primarily on how Classic sees things.
Neither is it only fear and prejudice the reds offer, or only fear and prejudice that most reds offer. That is clear to me, and discredits Eric totally. His world view is simply inaccurate.
And pardon me if I believe extremists yelling inaccurate worldviews and vile stereotypes at each other is not a very constructive process.
