There's a difference in connotation, depending on what "great" is modifying.

Calling a tragedy "great" says it was big or notorious. On the other hand, calling a man "great" says he was noble or excellent.

Which is why it's disingenuous to call Hitler or Stalin a "great man" and, when you receive pushback, claim you were just saying he was historically significant or newsworthy. That's not what "great" means in that context, and everyone knows it.

If you’d listen to the entire podcast you’d know exactly what he said. But you won’t because you’ve already made your mind up based on a clip.

Semantics. Just for fun, maybe one day Nick should go to a local basketball court at a park in the Lower 9th Ward of New Orleans, and tell all the guys playing basketball that they look so gay. And then as he’s about to get a beat down, he can quickly explain how they don’t understand the true context and history of the word gay, and that he actually meant they all look happy. I’m sure they’ll all be understanding and appreciative of the English lesson. 🙄

Can you expand your thought process on this? Why the lower 9th ward in New Orleans? Why a basketball court?

I'm so sorry someone is disrespecting your cult leader. There, there.
 
I’m going to try and copy and paste a podcast of him explaining himself. You’ll need to fast forward it to a certain point but I’ll put the time stamp. It will be later today.

Would a football field in Texarkana, Texas make you feel better? Somehow I don’t feel like a golf course in Martha’s Vineyard would quite be the same.

What would be the difference? Sincerely. Just seemed very specific.

The difference is certain groups of guys are not going to take kindly to a smart mouthed little weasel calling them “gay” and then saying it just means they’re happy. It’s an example to show how idiotic your defense of the little weasel calling Hitler “great” is. Any other questions or are you satisfied?

Then just come out and say it instead of beating around the bush like a little ninny. The fact that you “went there” with the R-card makes me think you’re the racist one.

Unlike calling the VP a "race traitor" for marrying a "jeet," which of course is just being a good neighbour, right? :rolleyes:

See how easy that was to twist your words out of context?

sending money is not being at war..... it;s supporting a war...... sending weapons is still just supporting a war... ... sending troops and physically being involved in the fighting is what qualifies as being at war.....


you are talking about things that require sacrifice and being willing to live a conservative lifestyle... ...neither of which any 25 year old i hear complaining today is willing to do........ if they were willing and actually started doing the kind of work it takes to live that kind of life they wouldn;t have time to complain..... . and when they did have time to complain they would be too tired to do it....

the problem is the country is saddled with a generation of young adults who grew up very spoiled.... ...they expect to walk right into ownership at age 25 of the same kind of big house and new cars their parents currently own.... and which their parents worked an entire lifetime for.........

it doesn;t help that television and social media bombards them with stories of super rich kids their own age who made fortunes doing unique things like making youtube videos and starting businesses that offer a service previously un-offered or un-known.... ......... what neither they or the news media will tell you is they almost always had help..... big help from family members who would just as soon sit back and let the world believe their fair haired child did it all on his own coz it;s just as big a bragging right for them as it is for their kid.......those kinds of success cases are also very rare.... .


what year was that?...... the decade and the average wages of others the same age you were are numbers just as pertinent to the argument as how much money you made and what you were able to do with it......... ....it also matter what part of the country you lived in when you did all that........ .and what kind of job you had - who did you work for - were you given that job by your dad or an uncle or did you earn itself etc etc etc......

Sending money to support a war with our tax dollars and bailing other foreign countries out with our tax dollars and not agreeing with it but asking our government to bailout the American people with our tax dollars is Americans being entitled, can you explain this, please?
 
NOW - Trump says 600,000 Chinese students coming to the U.S. is a pro-MAGA stance because "you would have half the colleges in the United States go out of business... I know what MAGA wants better than anybody else.

This is not putting America First.

You are incapable of seeing the obvious, if you think Fuentes's racist rhetoric is anything more subtle than hating Indians and interracial marriages.

Either that, or he's just another Internet troll.

The hilarious part is that either way, idiot or troll, you think he is a serious person worthy of hearing out. I gave you a opportunity a while back to persuade me of that, and you didn't even try. Says it all.

I’ve tried but I’m unable to so…..
Just because someone says something racist in a joking way doesn’t mean they’re racist.

If someone believes that they only want to marry someone that’s the same race as them doesn’t make them racist.
