I was talking in general
everything ain't about you fam
I know. I took the blow on purpose.
So Genocide is when a lot of people die? Are we making our own definitions now?
No. It's when there is an intent to make a lot of people die. And we know there is a political intent.
Banning guns won't solve a thing. It's culture.
Of course it will. It will at least prevent a lot of violences (

Allow me to elucidate the concept of humility in this context: to show humility in your situation is to show appreciation for people like Van who actually do a valuable public service instead of shitting on them.
Sorry, the Police is one of my political ennemy. Don't expect me to say good thing about it.
What I have an issue with is a person who will twist every comment, jab at every person who disagrees, all the while playing the victim because he has a mental illness.
You are the ones who keep bringing up my situation and personal life in the mix to attack me. If you can take the heat, don't bring the heat.
I'm defending myself here. If you want, I can start to do the same with you, but really, you won't like that. I don't think you understand that I'm being VERY KIND not to retaliate on your rethoric guys. I could say a LOT of things that could be very mean. So don't push me and stop attacking people on their personnal lives or experience.
My friend is incredibly grateful to a society that supports him - meanwhile you spit proverbial venom all day, venom that is disguised as kindness.
What I get is a RIGHT people fought to get. It's toward THEM that I'm grateful, I should be grateful to NO ONE ELSE.
My issue with you is not that you have a condition.
Then don't bring it.
My issue with you is that you use that condition as a smokescreen to protect yourself. You act entitled.
Another lie ?
You should be grateful to people like Van who perform vital services.
No I should not.
Instead you mock those people. It's sick.
I'm mocking no one mate here. You do.
I've never seen you concede a single point
That's because you don't read what I actually say. I've concede more in this thread alone to people that the majority of you guys in this entire forum.
Pay more attention to what I say, you might get surprised.
talk empathetically with someone about their struggles
Again. You pay 0 attention to what I say. In fact, you don't even remember that I was empathic to your own situation once.
Really, pay attention.
If you felt any level of offense at how I spoke to you before (and surely you did, by your diatribe), then you might actually have a golden opportunity here. Instead of your so-called righteous indignation (which no doubt stems from your ego being stung), try to think about how what YOU say impacts others. Not just: "Oh, they're wrong so their anger is injust," but seriously try to see how your needling can impact other people.
I know what I said was harsh. But I think you deserved it.
What you said was not harsh, it's was false.
You are confusing political opinion with your own personal situations. You are confusing my strenght of defense against bigotry as a dehumanization process.
I understand you, but you do not understand me. You will never be able to understand me with this belief system.
I know how mean, hurtfull and destroying I can become when I really want to hurt someone's feeling. Trust me, you do
NOT want me to attack on the personal. So please, refrain yourself from doing that.
It is. Our nature created these structures. We live in the nest era ever, at least the concept of human rights exists. In history, gencode was completely normal and nobody cared.
No. That's not how human society work.
The
MATERIAL conditions have pushed us to create those structure. Our beliefs, our systems, it's the result of material condition > Hence why we talk about "materialism".
When you are poor, your are not more likely to go toward crime because it's our nature, you will go there because the material conditions will push you to go toward crime.
The material condition are the reason why some are rich and some are pure. They are the reasons why people are oppressed are others are not.
To get a better society, we need to improve the material conditions and thus improve the structure that shape society.
This is why I ended up creating a thread asking you guys to act on the STRUCTURE of the forum and stopped reporting people. Because by changing the material structure of society, we change the behaviors.
This is a scientific fact.
There's also FAR less gun violence in European countries with relaxed gun laws.
There are also far less reason to do crimes. Bad analogy.
