Is MrRant A Bigot?

[Guest MrRant]

Well since goodhelmet believes me to be a bigot I would like to gauge everyone else's opinion.

[Guest papacita]

If you are, I haven't seen it.

[Guest Flyboy]

Nah.

 

Although, my wages for writing for the site isn't as high as everyone else's... and I have to sneak in the back to talk to the "Massiah"... nah, not a bigot at all.

 

(just j/king, man. I voted 'no')

 

I need some proof from goodhelmet to say that you are... and as of now, I have none.

[Guest BionicRedneck]

Please explain the scenario in full so I can make an educated opinion.

 

(did I sound intelligent there? Coz I tried)

[Guest Flyboy]

(did I sound intelligent there? Coz I tried)

Yes.

 

It did, indeed.

 

Just replace "coz" with "because", and you're on your way!

[Guest BionicRedneck]

Yes! I'm on my way! thanks for the tips...

 

Oh and why did goodhelmet call MrRant a bigot?

[Guest Flyboy]

Right from goodhelmet:

 

ok, now to end this topic.

 

i used the same method you used to attck me in the initial thread... name-calling.

also, i called you a misogynist (i had forgotten about the lilith fair post) because of your apparent worship of al bundy to illustrate another fallacy in your communist diatribe.

al bundy is a mysogonist

mr rant is influenced by al bundy

mr rant is a misogynist

 

you used the same fallacy in logic in calling me a communist

the Soviet communists were influenced by Karl Marx

goodhelmet is influenced by Karl Marx

goodhelmet is a Soviet communist

 

no one here still really understands the terms or distinction between communism, socialism, or neo-marxism so i can only suggest you read karl marx's works 'the communist manifesto' and 'das kapital'. it might educate you.

 

as for calling you a bigot, i have never seen you post anything positive about racial minorities. only negative diatribes about how these 'coloreds' and 'jews' are being too sensitive and how you're tired of the white man getting the worst of it. sounds like you are a little hung up on race. sounds like a bigot.

 

and another thing that bothers me, i have never once posted my political beliefs on this board (until this thread) or ever cared to. yet, you found it desirable to call me a commie when not one post i have ever made indicated i was communist, socialist, capitalist, feudalistic, a despot, or any other belief out there. so how does that make me a controversial poster again?

 

 

 

If goodhelmet can show me some actual proof of Josh being a bigot... then.. well... it might be different.

 

Until then... no.

[Guest BionicRedneck]

Hmmm, I voted "no" as there is no proof there.

[Guest Flyboy]

Hmmm, I voted "no" as there is no proof there.

Nah. The proof doesn't come from that..

 

goodhelmet says he has instances where Josh was being one...

[Guest MrRant]

I will say that I have played devil's advocate on many things... race, religion, creed, sex, and why should soandso get special treatment with affirmative action ect. One of the things he is really pissed off about is my tirade on being forced to learn about Native American history in my WA state history class in high school and it was being taught in the way of "You are white and you shouldn't have killed them all" Like it was my fault and I had said something along the lines of "It wouldn't have been as big a deal if it were white guys killing white guys or black guys killing black guys but since it was a white guy killing a Native American we are wrong" . I shall try to find that post somewhere.

[Guest RazorxEDGE]

I don't give a fuck. I hate all of this "politically correct" and "affirmative action" BULLSHIT. Fuck it.

[Guest BionicRedneck]

Yup, there should always be a "I don't give a Fuck" option on polls, IMO.

[Guest MrRant]

Ahh.. here it is:

 

 

The MrRant is a bigot thread

[Guest TheRockIsTheEuropeanChampion]

I still voted "no".

 

True, it was *before* I read that thread... Which, actually, I still maybe should. Huh.

[Guest alfdogg]

I also voted no, for what it's worth.

 

Rant, you have to remember that the person calling you a bigot is the same person that said AS was as big of a troll as Smarkzone.

[Guest MrRant]

It is worth a lot to me that you voted no as I am not a bigot if so I think I would have been banned ALONG time ago. He just makes no sense. My sister is a lesbian and so is my fiancee's cousin and one of my best friends so why would I hate gays? I talk a lot with Dames and he isn't white as well as Flyboy. Its bullshit and he knows it.

[Guest bob_barron]

There are times when AS has been like a troll.

 

There were a couple threads about cruiserweights where AS basically was like: Bah cruisers suck.

 

But AS is still a very good poster and I find him a lot less annoying then I used to

[Guest alfdogg]

But as bad as SZ?? Come ON.

[Guest bob_barron]

Smarkzone got under a lot of people's skins but some of his posts weren't that bad.

 

But the fact he has come back about 9,321 times kinda makes AS better by default

[Guest cobainwasmurdered]

Bah He's no biggot. Rant is good people.

[Guest alfdogg]

No, Rant is a good PERSON.

[Guest treble charged]

Guys, Rant is neither good people *OR* a good person.

[Guest MrRant]

You think I'm a bigot?

[Guest cobainwasmurdered]

No, Rant is a good PERSON.

It was slang slapnuts....DOUBLE J pwns you!

[Guest goodhelmet]

big·ot n. --

One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.

 

"Word History: Bigots may have more in common with God than one might think. Legend has it that Rollo, the first duke of Normandy, refused to kiss the foot of the French king Charles III, uttering the phrase bi got, his borrowing of the assumed Old English equivalent of our expression by God. Although this story is almost surely apocryphal, it is true that bigot was used by the French as a term of abuse for the Normans, but not in a religious sense. Later, however, the word, or very possibly a homonym, was used abusively in French for the Beguines, members of a Roman Catholic lay sisterhood. From the 15th century on Old French bigot meant “an excessively devoted or hypocritical person.” Bigot is first recorded in English in 1598 with the sense “a superstitious hypocrite.”

 

1. A hypocrite; esp., a superstitious hypocrite. [Obs.]

 

2. A person who regards his own faith and views in matters of religion as unquestionably right, and any belief or opinion opposed to or differing from them as unreasonable or wicked. In an extended sense, a person who is intolerant of opinions which conflict with his own, as in politics or morals; one obstinately and blindly devoted to his own church, party, belief, or opinion.

 

n : a prejudiced person who is intolerant of any opinions differing from his own

 

 

 

-i think you are confusing the term bigot w/ racist. -

Ahh... but I don't think I am right all the time and I am tolerant of other's opinions or I wouldn't enjoy the Current Events folder so much.

 

We have had many discussion over AIM about various topics and have never said that you were wrong and that was it. I was very open to your opinons and discussed them in an intelligent manner.

 

 

But yes I am blindly devoted to NO MA'AM.

I'm getting flashbacks of the "Should RobStone be banned?" thread.

But where are the n00bs disrespecting the ESTABLISHED POSTERS?

[Guest MrRant]

Am I established yet? I still haven't figured that out.

[Guest Incandenza]

If Risk were still here, he could tell you.
