Tim's new post. It's really great.

The end of that URL almost looks like "Who's on 8", which of course made me think of the "Who's on 1st" skit

lol

I am in the middle of having the exact argument in the recent video about how Trump (allegedly) calling countries shitholes is somehow racist. People are so blinded by emotion that simple facts elude them. Very sad.

Facts are racist. And well, even if he did actually say it, is he wrong?

No he's not wrong.

I ended up calling the guy a racist because he assumed people from those countries were shitholes instead of just the country being a shithole.

And then id ask, are you making the assumption he called them shitholes since they are populated with blacks.

Well directed at the other guy

Already answered lol.

That was basically my argument.

He thought Trump mentioned Norway just because they are white.

Lol and we are the racist ones? He saw color in everything.

He also said the "Muslim ban" was racist because apparently muslims are a race now.

kek

I'm really enjoying it because he keeps doubling down.

I thought it was a joke people like that existed. But the theres flat earthers

I talked to a guy today who thought illegals shouldn't be deported so yeah people like that exist.

No explanation why?

He says we can't send them back becauase they'd be killed.

I mean to argue with someone using moralist arguments. You have to use moralist retorts.

Well at least he cant claim the us is a terrible place.

We weren't talking about the US.

Ask him if Mexico deserves to be a great country or not, a place where people didn't have to flee from.

And yeah you can't fight emotions with logic sadly.

And that if the wall should be built, if anything, for humanitarian reasons.

I said if people leave they lose the incentive to make their home countries better and it becomes an endless loop.

I thought jordan peterson said it best.

And if we keep taking their best/brightest/smartest people, how can we expect those countries to develop?

Sometimes you need emotional arguments to counter someone who uses them

Well that argument doesn't work with illegals @JadenFrostwolf.

Why?

Because you don't vet illegals.

Could be getting anyone.

Oh, the 'smartest' people comment was for legal immigrants.

The 'wall' comment was for illegal ones.

That's more an argument against immigration in general.

Ah ok.

Yeah, it is. lol
