    I still have no idea why you think he’s wrong. But that’s ok, I don’t care anymore.

    See post 1032. About personal responsibility.

    I totally stand by that. Critical Theory teaches that behavior is conditioned by one's position as an oppressor or a victim of oppression. Any call to "personal responsibility" is racist.

    If you think I'm wrong, it's because you're looking at it from a perspective of White Privilege.

    Care to cite that? I might not have any argument with the first part, but I disagree with the second part about personal responsibility.
    There's a lot of things I don't know about how other groups live and interact with other groups. But you haven't met me nor my wife, so you are making assumptions about what sort of privilege I may or may not have, nor what I've seen. As one example, I was with a colleague who made good money as a chemist and could afford a nice Mustang and he got pulled over while we were going to lunch someplace- after a license and registration check, he was free to go. He explained it happened to him commonly. So I know that bad things happen to responsible people.

    I’m free to make all of the assumptions I want about you, your wife, or anyone else who disagrees with CT. If you disagree, you’re a racist and you see everything from a White Privileged perspective. It’s that simple.

    Clearly it’s hogwash, but that’s what they say.

    I'm done. No citations, the mysterious "they" mentioned in "that's what they say".

    I'm having trouble following which bad actor we're talking about. Did it shift from Baldwin to Cosby? Or is Baldwin identifying as black now? Not that there's anything wrong with that.

    Could we get back to black power ballistics and discussing the legalities of shooting members of a Hollywood film crew?
