Ok

2019-09-09 07:22:59 UTC  

Ok, very simple

2019-09-09 07:23:09 UTC  

yes, my questions often are

2019-09-09 07:24:18 UTC  

I'll wait

2019-09-09 07:24:45 UTC  

I observe they are of different skin tones and racial backgrounds, yes, point?

2019-09-09 07:24:55 UTC  

Is one of them white, and one is black? Is that correct?

2019-09-09 07:25:03 UTC  

correct

2019-09-09 07:25:08 UTC  

So you see race, ok

2019-09-09 07:25:19 UTC  

How does that prove that you're a racist?

2019-09-09 07:25:33 UTC  

Are you a racist because you see those differences?

2019-09-09 07:25:35 UTC  

so the difficulty arises from the individual's meaning behind the assertion os *seeing* race,

2019-09-09 07:25:44 UTC  

Tell me if this makes you racist

2019-09-09 07:25:47 UTC  

The fact that you're noticing this

2019-09-09 07:26:03 UTC  

which frankly is the onus of the individudal making the assertion

2019-09-09 07:26:12 UTC  

You know there's a study showing all races experience adrenaline rush/fight or flight responses when they see a member of another race? I believe this was aired on Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman, if my memory serves me just.

2019-09-09 07:26:13 UTC  

You clearly see race

2019-09-09 07:26:19 UTC  

Are you a racist because you see race?

2019-09-09 07:26:21 UTC  

You know what I see in that photo?

2019-09-09 07:26:39 UTC  

The black man is always trying to differentiate himself from the white man by wearing a funky ass suit.

2019-09-09 07:26:47 UTC  

That's just a common behavior I see among blacks, which is a byproduct of their non-conformity.

2019-09-09 07:26:54 UTC  

🤦

2019-09-09 07:26:57 UTC  

Am I racist?

2019-09-09 07:27:03 UTC  

I asked Joker, not you

2019-09-09 07:27:15 UTC  

C'mon, I'm trying to throw some humor into it.

2019-09-09 07:27:26 UTC  

Ok sry <:sargonfingerguns:568463117856669696>

2019-09-09 07:27:46 UTC  

I'm angry that this Joker guy is trying to paint me as a racist because he can't distinguish between seeing race and being a racist

2019-09-09 07:27:55 UTC  

So I'm trying to prove to him that noticing race is not racist

2019-09-09 07:28:39 UTC  

It's a subtle truth I laid out that examples their non-conformity.

2019-09-09 07:28:57 UTC  

the difficulty in communication seems to be what an individual is meaning to convey when they say they do or don't *see* something. I communicate it in a willingness to convey I don't put contextual wieght on it, you communicate it to convey whether or not its physically observed.

2019-09-09 07:28:57 UTC  

Anyway, you two have fun.

2019-09-09 07:29:46 UTC  

Nice dodging the question Joker

2019-09-09 07:29:47 UTC  

neither definition is indididually correct or incorrect, we seem to have simply gone over the other's head

2019-09-09 07:29:57 UTC  

It's always great when you can accuse others of something dishonestly

2019-09-09 07:30:03 UTC  

But when that same argument gets turned on you

2019-09-09 07:30:05 UTC  

You just avoid it

2019-09-09 07:30:36 UTC  

I was identifying where I was wrong in my judgement

2019-09-09 07:30:42 UTC  

You were wrong about me being a racist

2019-09-09 07:30:46 UTC  

yes

2019-09-09 07:30:50 UTC  

Thank you

2019-09-09 07:32:02 UTC  

still, your repetitive reference to things being safe or unsafe or weak didn't help the issue
