Here is my stance:
It is foolish to jump to conclusions based on a single, context-free image.
Do you disagree? Oh, you think thatin this casethe odds are in your favor (just like you did with Sulkowicz, where there was also no conclusive evidence). You think that in this case your...
All right, Jhodi, let me know when you're ready to actually discuss something and I'll be more than happy to school you again. This circular non-logic you keep trotting out is evidence you have nothing of any substance to say. Take a rest, recharge a bit, don't forget your meds, and when you're...
I thought you were leaving because I embarrassed you again?
Anyway, here's what we saw in that one slide:
"White people are a plague to the planet: The historical ties between homophobia in communities of color and colonization"
What part of that suggests that white people need to be...
Oh, so YOU'RE the authority on what's funny and what isn't now. That's interesting. It's also interesting how you came to that conclusion from a single context-free title slide.
Oh, I almost forgot to congratulate you on your recently moved goal posts. "There is no comedy in Universities!"...
I didn't say there was no context that would make that image OK. It would be fine if it were a parody or comedic piece. Hence my linking another presentation done primarily for lulz.
"BUT A WHITE GUY CAN'T MAKE THE SAME JOKE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!"
That might be true, but it is...
I never once made the claim that it would work if the races were switched. That was never my point, and I don't see how it is in any way relevant to what I was saying. Again, all I suggested is that we don't know the context for that image. It is really, REALLY easy to take things out of...
DOES NOT EQUAL
(Of course, the greatest irony is if anybody tried to put words inyourmouth like this, you'd go on a multiple-page rant about how dishonest that was)
Holy Lord Jesus.
Somebody please tell me that Jhodi didn't just accidentally paste the script of a Snuggie infomercial. Thatcan'tjust be a coincidence, it can't. It's fucking uncanny.
Jesus Christ, dude.
Rebuttal to what? Your ridiculous straw man that (once again) didn't actually address anything I said?
I don't know who Matt Slick or Sye Ten are, if you think you're making a point there you're going to have to be a bit clearer.
By the way, since you're directly...
I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo,
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.
It might be worth noting in this thread that there's a decent possibility J49 posted his wife's butthere.
Non che male...
Separate topic, but no, I don't.
And I'm not even saying it was "tongue in cheek", I'm sayingwe don't knowthe context. And I'm saying that that's enough reason not to jump to conclusions about what's happening in that picture. Do you take issue with this stance?
The only thing that tickles me more than "everybody knows it" is "nobody gives a shit". For one, it shows how comfortable Jhodi is speaking for everybody else (a sure sign of an irrational mind). But more hilarious is how he repeatedly and obsessively goes out of his way to post in the RRP...
So, yet again, Jhodi has absolutely nothing of any relevance to say at all. Once again, instead of trying to argue anything I've actually said (something he has tremendous difficulty with since that would require a shred of honesty and dignity), he just barrels in with his loud and obnoxious...
Your argument:
...Backed up by nothing. Literally nothing. But we're supposed to accept it because Jhodi the Arrogant says so.
Here's an ACTUAL example of "pointing out reality": We should hold off on jumping to conclusions until we have more information.
That was my point, which I...
You ever notice how often your arguments boil down to "everybody knows it", Jhodi?
It's powerfully hypocritical that someone who pays so much lip service to basing his stances on facts and evidence can proudly and without shame make grandiose statements based on nothing but your own...
I see you missed the point.
It's possible (not a given, of course), that both presentations are part of a course on public speaking. Perhaps both students chose provocative topics to make a tongue-in-cheek presentation about. Perhaps they are being judged on their ability to speak and not on...
Best?
It's fun. It boosts your ego at the expense of others. It strengthens bonds between like-minded people.
It DOESN'T educate. It DOESN'T expose the flaws in whatever is being ridiculed. It DOESN'T lead to reflection and reconsideration on the part of the ridiculed.
Good criticism...
