@ewashington7000

reversing my statement doesn't really do anything in this case, you are the one who said I was a bit slow.

[ptbwf]

@ewashington7000

I understand it all too well.

Just because I don't know all the terms for "this and that", doesn't mean I am any less qualified to debate anyone on the subject; I didn't learn all of this from some textbook or some sociologist's hearsay so obviously I am not going to know the terms used.

I come at things from a Philosopher/Historian point of view anyway.

[ewashington7000]

Yet "if my brain functions are NOT slower than a goddamn turtle, then you are NOT slow" - the logical equivalence of your material conditional - i.e., contra-positive.

You ought be careful with the foolishness that you utter. Frankly, you sound naively daft.

@ptbwf

Perhaps you ought to read (and study) some more literature on sociology, even before rejoindering to me. Thai is, evidently, you are not conversant with modern sociological jargon So, go and become more familiar with modern sociological terms like "racialism." understand it and its nuances, and then holler at me. Otherwise, it's like trying to teach advanced modal logic to a person who hardly understands propositional logic - backwards.

@ewashington7000

consider I could school the authors of those books and anyone you can name on this issue, it might just be YOU who is out of your league.

@ewashington7000

again, nice try.

If you don't have your definition of racism even in the dictionary then you have absolutely NO leg to stand on for your argument, and that statement was actually formed using your pathetic sense of logic.

If I am slow, your brain functions are slower than a goddamn turtle.

[ewashington7000]

@ptbwf

At any rate, it's quite evident that you have NOT the slightest clue about your very own stance. Thus, perhaps you ought to read "Systemic Racism: A Theory of Oppression" and "Racist America: Roots, Current Realities, and Future Reparations," even before attempting to public debate rejoinder to me about theses things. Your ignorance does bewray you...

And I a mathematical logic and math/physics dude at that...snh

@ptbwf

"What dictionary"? Clearly, you are not familiar with, even nescient, of the sociological jargon that I have used/employed within my apologia (i.e., defense, since you seem to be a tad bit slow). Also, note that "lexicons" or dictionaries do not define words but rather report common usages of them. Rather, human being actually "defines."

[ptbwf]

@ewashington7000

LOL

What dictionary did you read to see that again?

Maybe when you try to lecture people you should actually know SOMETHING about it instead of making up fake definitions of words to shape your own reality.

@SLAM234

Obviously, you do. You seem to be so ignorant as to what the real issues are that you present arguments that are not even sound.
