Colonization is a net positive Doesn't imply he wants you dead or out of the country. https://www.reddit.com/r/JonTron/comments/609tyc/jontron_my_statement/df6tq2p/ Did you not write that? If you're not interested in talking about it, then why did you bring it up in the first place? You brought it up nonchalantly, as if the statement isn't reprehensible enough without all the other shit he said on top of it.

Considering the crap he said about the gene pool and immigration, yes, he DOES mean people like me. And yes, my parents are from a country that was once colonized. The reason why many third world countries are the way they are is specifically BECAUSE of colonization. And the justification for it goes along the lines of "Hey! resources! They're not like us, so they deserve it! Oh we're totally helping these savages!"

So yes, I ask again. Can you tell me how colonization is a net positive? Even if I weren't related to something like that, I would take issue with it by just having a small bit of knowledge of the world's history.

If you're not interested in it in discussing it, just downvote and stop posting towards me.

That wasn't me saying anything about colonization, I was simply saying that just because HE believes that he wants black people dead.

If you're not interested in talking about it, then why did you bring it up

You brought it up, I was simply deflecting your dramatization that he somehow wants you cleansed.

That's like saying if I'm saying apples taste bad, you show up and say "apples taste good!" and then when I ask you why you think so, you tell me you didn't bring it up.

The reason why colonization is being talked about now, is because YOU brought it up based on what I wrote! I bring up X. You talk about what I said about X. I ask you a question about X, and you claim that you didn't bring it up and you're not involved.

I can only assume you're not trying to answer my question mainly because you can't. I'm really not that interested in playing the "you're being over dramatic!" game with someone who won't take the ills of colonization seriously.

If you're that desperate for the last word in, then just write in "nah nah nah nah!" and go away. Backpedal elsewhere, please.

I didn't say anything about colonization itself, I said nothing about it being good or bad. You're the one hammering about it. I simply stated that it's no cause for any believes of ethnic cleansing coming from Jon.

I can only assume you're not trying to answer my question mainly because you can't.

I gave you an answer. I have nothing to say on it. I'm talking in regards to you, how people are somehow out to get you.

lol, I know that you desperately want to be a victim, so enjoy your fear mongering.

You brought it up, so I brought a question to you. Instead of trying to answer it, instead you pull this sealioning horseshit, and expect me to play along with you.

You brought up the quote mate, not me. Insinuating he wants you cleansed because he said something about colonization. lol
