    Where’s the downvote button? You are just plain dishonest on your criticism of both videos. You are arguing against a position that the content maker or its followers did not make. It’s called a straw man. Straight up misinformation.

    posted a message on You people deserve sweet f all - Opinion on the community

    i really like how you use the fact that you yourself don’t pay for every expansion, yet I’m sure you have logged on, played the game completely free using the new cards for the duration that you didn’t pay. And you are talking about others who don’t cover the “rent”? 

    aside from your blatant hypocrisy that would exclude you from commenting on anything you didn’t pay for, why on earth do you make the argument that money = social power when from an objective viewpoint there are good and bad things from every outcome? IMO we talk about issues and topics on a system regardless of whether we choose to participate in said system. For example I criticize a country for poor health practices because it helps understand what works and doesnt for MY country. To advocate for anything other is simple anti intellectualism and this type of gate keeping only delays the truth and realization process of “we’re fucked”

    It makes your anti aggro priest deck also beat combo. There are very few ways to counter it. I still think it’s OP, because I will definitely still keep her.

    posted a message on Abusive players

    In case new players haven’t grown accustomed to hearthpwn, just look at the post on here where blizzard showed support for a peaceful protest after the murder of a black man by the state. The amount of reactionary and blatant racism displayed by the members lead me to steer away from the gamerbro community. Yes it’s toxic, no it’s not just this community and yes It is common..err rampant. I get friend requests from people literally seething at me for RNG when they themselves made huge fucking errors in the game, yet ask me to explain to them how they could have played better. To be fair I do enjoy watching them lose their cool, it’s just exhausting to go through the process, that I stopped accepting friend request from opponents, unless they were polite in game.

    I mean isn't that what most are trying to do?  Use our brain for critical thinking.

    Isn't it worse to just mute people because they aren't "on your side."  Isn't that the real hate speech?  One side is hating the other while the other is trying to figure things out with data and discussion.

     

    Telling me to use my brain, you are the bottom feeders in society, using one stat to justify your bigotry. Facts? how about IQ is correlated to level of one's education way more than genetics. Also exposure to lead in run down neighborhoods. And your discussion is with other white nationalists so you can jerk eachother off instead of having real discussions.

    Heads up to anyone who's thinking of actually posting some facts and statistics to disprove BLM - The mods here are handing out warnings for "hate speech". Of course how is calling it hate speech and us racist for pointing out fallacies disproving any of the points we make is beyond me but oh well, makes them feel powerful, I guess.

    Because facts and statistics without an unbiased conclusion, as provided by the actual studies, end up making false conclusions. The stat themselves while true does not give you the right to harass the person with them. Try walking into your job or a random person of color on the street and explain to them the stats show the average person of my race has about 13% more IQ than a average person of your race. Or hey all my statistically likely people to have a lower IQ than me, how was your morning meeting? That's a one way ticket to HR.

    It's hate speech because you are not a master in the subject matter, thus citing them does not guarantee you understand the studies purpose or even what remedies are needed.

    joe bidens 95 crime bill you guys got some bones to pick with him

     I don't defend joe biden. I will vote for him because trump is a crypto fascist. That bill was his plan 25 years ago, they all have disowned it and moved on with life. Also, that crime bill was at a time when crime was ridiculously high and the majority of people wanted an answer. It was directed to violent offenders, but ended up hurting the wrong people. In hindsight, he did what he had to do. Even bernie sanders voted for it.

    BLM is unnecessary, police brutality is an abuse of power and you just tried to start a "debate" by calling me fragile and implying that I'm a white nationalist (not that there's anything wrong with being white or nationalist). 

    Finally, I got one of you little conservative gamers to utter more than a few words. Maybe next time try using paragraphs. 

     "BLM is not necessary"

    the factors which lead to disproportionate criminality amongst black Americans are also in large part a product of racial bias. Underfunded public programs, redlining, generational poverty, bad schooling, and myriad other factors which influence criminality can also be traced to racial bias. Proof?

    While White & Black Americans admit to using and selling illicit drugs at similar rates, Black Americans are VASTLY more likely to go to prison for a drug offense.

    In 2002, Black Americans were incarcerated for drug offenses at TEN TIMES the rate of White Americans.

    "Police brutality IS an abuse of power"

    Looks like I made you concede, good you are on the side of FACTS.

    Police brutality is a problem because It affects african american men more so that other similarly situated white men. Police militarization does not lead to a decrease in crimes committed or officer injuries, may actually increase both.

    Police militarization (including the adoption of SWAT teams) decreases public trust in police, which may contribute to increases in crime.

    "I'm white and a nationalist, whatever bro"

    Have you seen this video about a cop at mcdonalds? I won't post it here because it might delete my post: Here is what I think about your fragility

    You know, to this highly upsetable human being, there is no evidence even on her end to distrust her egg mcmuffin. What did she think was going to happen? poisoning food? , that her "life was in danger?" really think about that rationally. The people who serve the food at mcdonalds don't make it. She is sobbing for minutes to a camera over a mcmuffin. This fragility is what underlines police mentality. They prep themselves up as warriors and takers of life, the thin blue line between us and them. They are genuinely scared their "life is in danger" at every moment in their life, and people will defend the use of force when an officer's "life is in danger". What else are we going excuse them for?: Well it's probably poison, which is like murder, which means probable cause to kill preemptively. So should we let them do mass drive by at all fast food places next? Will the next excuse be "my life was in danger"? She should turn in her firearm. She has no business owing one. 

    Someone with this mentality is a giant coward and she should turn in the badge and get another job.

    Man, you are good at pivoting and avoiding debate. I wonder if you even have a spine. Turns out you say dumb shit all the time and I can point it out whenever I choose. My case is that you are this dumb in general, and aren't trolling me. This is your genuine inability to make arguments that directly refute the point i make, and again refer to this imagined hypocrisy when you get scared of defending your actual positions. 

     Have you been going through my profile lmao. 

    Your point was that opposing viewpoints in this thread should be moderated because they are illegitimate, not "thinking for themselves" and "republican" in origin. No proof of any of that yet, though I have refuted it. 

    Oh, so now you are ready to have a debate on why BLM is necessary, why police brutality is an abuse of power, and your fragility is a broader issue that underlines all white nationalists?
