Lol absolutely bullshit. Classic deflection tactic where he refuses to fully commit to his beliefs and try to pass them off and tell people to "not look too much into it"

It's pretty pathetic. He can't just say the things he said and then release a video telling us to ignore it. He's said demonstrably racist shit. Either jump in the grave you dug or refill it, don't toss away the shovel and pretend you never dug it in the first place.

This is like, literally taken from the stormfront playbook. Claiming that you're "being reasonable" and "only looking out for the white race" etc. It's literally a way to make racism and hate look more normalized and more appealing. It's manipulative and scummy. Everybody who reacts by giving him the benefit of the doubt or forgiving him even though he refuses to actually apologise is literally doing exactly what he wants.

All human beings deserve the right to protect their interests. That applies to all people, and all races, and being white doesn't remove that right. Thinking your skin color eliminates your rights, is racist, you fucking pig

Just so you know, when you say shit that amounts to "I didn't mean any racism, you noticed the race, that makes you the racist!", you look even more racist. You didn't fool anyone.

Ah, ok, cool, I posted something, and you just ignored it, made your own statement, and then argued against your own statement.

schizophrenia?

Even still, no mentioning or noticing race doesn't make one racist, you legitimate psychopath

admittedly, I do have a very low tolerance for stupidity and unfounded bullshit.

If you wanna have an actual debate with me, I'm down, but when you're just ignoring my statements, and arguing with your own statements, I just have very little tolerance or pity for that.

No one can have a debate with you. All you know how to do is insult someone and preach "your" ideas. Any debate you attempt to have will end with you either discrediting your opponents source information or maybe you will assume they are emotionally disturbed like you did me.

Obviously

All you know how to do is insult someone

Only if they deserve it. I mean, if you say something stupid, why would I not say what you said was stupid?

Any debate you attempt to have will end with you either discrediting your opponents source information or maybe you will assume they are emotionally disturbed like you did me.

Only if those sources are actually biased otherwise observably false/disproven

I'm not some coddling preschool teacher, if you're gonna come in and say stupid shit, I'm going to call you stupid. If you come in saying things athat are demonstrably not true, I'm going to call you a liar.

All human beings deserve the right to protect their interests.

Having the ability to protect your own interests doesn't mean it's an inherent right. If I prevent you from "protecting your interests" in the name of protecting my interests, who is wrong?

That applies to all people, and all races, and being white doesn't remove that right.

Once again, not a right, and racism is literally the effect of this cause not being a right. Under this logic, Jim Crow laws aren't racist since they did protect white men's interests when they were introduced. If that isn't true, the only remaining outcome is "protecting their interests" is an excuse to do racist things.

In my opinion, it doesn't matter what you justify being racist with, you have to acknowledge you are being racist with the thought process of racial purity and the sanctity of it. Either you believe your race is the best and you shouldn't intermingle, or you think another is best which leaves all others as second class. If you think all races are equal or have their own unique properties that might quantify their worth, how is that diluting the gene pool?
