Regarding Jeremyrh, I called him out for the racist comment he made...
Yes, I remember that. You asked him about Canadian and U.S. voter ID requirements: "Why should your Canada and probably most other countries have ID requirements but America should waive its requirements?"—to which he responded by broadly comparing the level of racism and inequality that exists in the two countries as a
possible explanation.
It could be because in Canada there is not such racism and inequality that strict ID requirements don't result in disenfranchisement of a specific demographic.
You had some interesting responses in reply
that attributed statements to him which differed
substantially from what he actually said.
he said they were incapable of voting like white people do.
he says black people don't have the ability or intelligence to obtain ID's so they can vote just like white people.
Although your immediate reply was to project his thoughts...
So you think Black Americans are ignorant. That they're still picking cotton... Do you realize how insulting and racist your opinion of black people is?
Yes. I remember that. It was less than six months ago. It caused two longtime and regular contributors to leave the forum, directly due to your comments, and who have not returned since. When others have complained about your comments, you've claimed that
you're the victim of people calling you a nazi and a racist—something I don't ever recall happening.
Of course, words can be
claimed to mean almost anything that anyone
wants them to mean. It's one of the great barriers to communicating among people.
