cause if people don't listen to your argument it isn't really an argument

I had an argument with my civics teacher about how Trump isn't an anti-semite

I first mentioned that his daughter is an Orthodox Jew

I was told that "I have a black friend so I'm not racist"

and then I went on to talk about Trumps pro-israel policies

"You're conflating Israeli jews with American jews"

<:thronk:441701565607444482>

<:high_iq:382980759012638731>

I told him they're the same thing

racist <:triggered:382980748115968000>

maybe I feel I lost because I failed to convince the one guy in the chat that seemed neutral

I just don't keep a list of citations to hand for everything.

and he gave the me most smug, douchey, questioning look

and then whenever I tried to talk after that he cut me off

crud the reason I lost was because he made the really dumb arguments while I was refuting his links I missed his overarching idiotic point

the massive expansion of the term immigrant

illegal aliens

antisemitism would include all jews

so he refuted himself

gg

damn

I need to get better at debating people

it's easy, allow me to demonstrate

orange man bad <:NPC:500042735617703967>

why

shut up racist <:NPC:500042735617703967>

ok nigger

brb reporting you to discord

Ouch

dont deplatform me

lol

it worries me because the guy I was arguing with is high up in the administration of a site I use.

I know I might be paranoid but I'm I right to fear an important site admin hold crazy politics.

not so much in the context of being banned but the context of the site dieing

I got banned from a chat I had been using for like 15 years because some dumb sjw girl managed to blackmail her way into an admin position

and she hates me

i hate the argument that people say "i have a black friend so i'm not racist is dumb"

if you have a black friend you arent racist

cause if you hate black people why hang out with one

what a lot of site sjw administrators don't realise is that when they are banning the old users it will kill of your site and community in the long run as even web forums and chats are bound by the 20/80 rule
