I think the difference between people like TF and you. Is TF's people actively promote liberal and scientific values while yours have the lowest standard for non-whites, non-Christians. They'll shrug their shoulders and say as long as they are not terrorists. We have higher standards, fair and equal for all persons.

@iMaDeMoN2012 That may very well be the stupidest thing I've read all day.

I actualy watched (and listened) to Thunderf00ts video, and I believe his "parasite" comment was aimed at the responses which have f*ck all to do with the video he had uploaded.

He did explain that, but like TF himself, you only hear what you want to hear. :(

[whistlingdust]

@franky225 What he suggested in his video was people responding to him on this subject are looking for attention for themselves using his name to achieve said attention. It's a crappy way of lumping everyone who disagrees with him into the same mold. It's the same linear way he approaches Muslims. This is a theme with him going back at least a year and requires more attention than any sane human should have to give it to parse, so I don't fault you for not reading between the lines.

I live in Tennessee too! Ah, I'd love to chat with you in person. :)

[whistlingdust]

@NaturalMiracleMan I'm cool with that, I just gotta find the time. Cheers.

"you made it your business"

This is a joke, right?

"never claimed that generalizations are bad, they are, however, a logical fallacy"

Another joke? I hope not. Generalizations are not a logical fallacy as became evident in my previous example. Generalizations are a fallacy if they are derived improperly/unsatisfactorily or plainly invalidly.

ok really if the resonable Muslims are as reasonable as you say they are, then they shouldn't be bothered by thunderfoots little stunt. He isn't picking on them, he's makeing a point of how stupid it is to have riots over the burning of a book or some cartooons.

I don't understand why you're attempting to disassociate the word muslim with Islam. The basic translation of Islam is, to surrender to god (Allah) and the word muslim means, those who have surrendered to god. Now if there is a difference between having been surrendered and to surrender in the current tense, please let me know, however from my perspective all it is, is a matter of tense. It seems to be that you have a problem with islam. If so, why do you not have a problem with muslims?

[woodenmajor]

gee ,muslims are a minority here ..and they get beaten ,robbed and raped ? whats it like to be a nonmuslim in a muslim minority country ...in ANY muslim country ? ...muslims here actively spoke out against terrorisim ,can you provide a link ? islam openly HATES your guts ,endlessly ,repeatedly ...ad FU$KIN nauseum .read their idiot "mien kampf " its straight from god ,word for word ,if you dont feel insulted ,threatoned and offended by islam ,you just cant be insulted.

@whistlingdust I think this line can be traced to the time he traveled and met Queen Laura of Atheism, right after tht he made his first FAIL bible video...

and from then on... it has been going down and down

[iMaDeMoN2012]

@whistlingdust Your characterization of what TF said was so far off, I pretty have not choice but to call you a fucking liar. The mosque in Tennessee? That's completely out of left field, TF makes no mention it. Strawman much? Why do YOU confuse Muslims for Koranic principles for Islam in practice. These not the same things, duh! He's against Koranic principles and Islam in common practice, not Muslims as people. Quit trying to read between the lines and stick to the print.

[iMaDeMoN2012]

@whistlingdust I'm glad you now recognize how much of a moron you were but it's not too late to change. Seriously, I always thought you were a joke. I went back and watched TF video for myself and I'm not a subscriber of his he's great and you are idiot for what you said. You can't bully me.

@Wrath0fKhan "So if (hypothetically speaking) 90% of some M are radical nutjobs, in your view its not well grounded to categorize the group of M as a group full of nutjobs."

Actually, the exact opposite conclusion would be drawn from my actual comments in this exchange. That is to say, if valid evidence showed that 90% of a particular group of Muslims were "nutjobs", then it would be entirely proper to charaterize them as "nutjobs". T'Foot fails to provide the evidence.

@pirbird14

"Britannica ... larger group"

So if (hypothetically speaking) 90% of some M are radical nutjobs, in your view its not well grounded to categorize the group of M as a group full of nutjobs.

Thanks. Case closed. Bye... :-)

@Wrath0fKhan '"you made it your business"

This is a joke, right?'

Well, since you're obviously a troll, I guess it is a big joke to you.

"Generalizations are a fallacy if they are derived improperly/unsatisfactorily or plainly invalidly." Which is a concept you don't understand. The examples you gave from Britannica, etc. were properly derived. The generalizations made by T'Foot are not.
