Of course the Superman reference was the point...how else does one get to 'bizarro'? Clearly I disagree with the analogy: one side all good, one side all evil.

I am white and have no trouble acknowledging that our society is based on some pretty skewed racial foundations. I have no trouble seeing that my white skin is an unearned benefit to me because of that.
I also take great comfort in the photos that show that today's protests are as integrated, both by sex and race, as any I've seen in my lifetime.

And since I don't believe that humans are all good or all evil, I can acknowledge my faults without beating myself over the head.

Please your white guilt is so much BS and shows how gullible you are Blacks have a great many perks and are allowed to have lower score then any other race to get into college which if I was black would piss me off because it implies that they don't have the mental capacity to do better. All races have been slaves in this country Asians/Italians/Irish but you don't see them out screaming and burning their own city up hell their burning black businesses and shooting blacks and whites their acting like uncivilized morons.

If I had white guilt you may be right.

What I have, actually, is a cold-eyed understanding of American history. And an unwillingness to paint large numbers of individuals with the same brush. "Blacks have a great many perks"....righteeeoooo.

When it walks like White Guilt and it quacks like White Guilt, it is White Guilt.

Thanks. I appreciate you letting me know what I think.

Since when is not whitewashing our history the same as white guilt?
Sounds like you’re the one suffering that malady

I disagree with you, however thank you for giving me a well thought out answer. I do not care so much what you think or say, as long as you think it out and say it well. Far too many on OPP, cannot give coherent answers under my apparently relentless and cruel grilling.

I will look forward to future conversations. Have a good day.

Perhaps witless it because we didn't think we were back in school and being tested. Also, not all of us are scholars such as you we're just everyday people trying to have a simple conversation unlike you who seems to take great delight in ripping into people and running them into the ground. Personal opinion

I wouldn't say that....

Son of Witless and I have had some good interactions. He asks questions about positions and answers them when asked of him. He's polite if treated politely.

You brought up the term test. I test my beliefs against yours'. If I cannot give you good arguments for the things I post, then I have done a poor job in choosing what I think.

If you cannot defend the things that you choose to post, against me, then ignore me. You will have an awful lot of company. There are a great many Lefties on OPP who choose not to discuss anything with me. Speak to those who agree with you. You will be much happier.

I'm not saying your post lack truth I'm saying you should not be down on people because of grammar or spelling so you missed my point or I did not make it clear either way did not mean to belittle your info just how you treat others in their postings. So misunderstanding on both ends ok

You are referring to my exchange with working class stiff ? Or are you criticizing my entire posting history ? On this topic, I thought I was pretty inoffensive for the most part. Normally I am worse.

To be honest your comments are novel. Most of those I get into serious disagreements with are far more nasty than me. I have been in many slug fests on OPP believing that I am the only person observing any rules or manners.
