That is an incredibly euro-centric POV. Your notion of where the center lies is relative.

Only if by “generally center-right” you mean solely in comparison to European concepts of right/left. Most of the world is still vaguely authoritarian and right leaning.

That is true for any racist not just Trump supporters.

To be fair Hampton had to be stopped. If permitted to continue AIDS and crack wouldn’t have hurt nearly as many nor could the state ensure a new wave of prison “workers” every few weeks. /s

that’s because we teach kids that racism is really bad and onlt bad people are racists. These people cannot be bad people therefore they aren’t racist.

The issue is if you are raised in a racist society, as most are, you will internalize and express racist views from time to time. You are only a bad person if you don’t try to reduce or stop expressing these views.

No, it’s about restoring the history of White America to White supremacist Americans. They aren’t thinking of indigenous people at all.

Im wondering how they ate compliling that number now.

He should have been removed week one.

I think you need to learn what non-problematic drinking is. Most people do not have a problem and your responses ITT are quite childish and ignorant

That would be an extraordinarily rude response to those statements and I would seek to stay way the fuck away from anyone with that obvious of a behavioral issue.

“I drink infrequently”

“I drink a few drinks a month”

“I dont drink more than a few times a year.”

Nah, there are lots of ways to do this

Go read all of Matthew 10. It might take 2 minutes tops. It’s very clear. It isn’t violent in a “imma kick your ass violent” it is about breaking apart families that refuse to follow Christ which IMO is a different problem.

John 14 makes sense in context and at the time it was written the Church was poor.

I think your perception of John is colored by a misunderstanding if the place slaves had in society and how they were viewed. Jewish slavery laws are NOTHING like chattel slavery. Slaves were humans and while less than their master it isn’t as evil as a modern American might think. Literally every society had slavery at this time.

The don’t look off to you because you don’t see them in their fuller context and you seem to not understand how specific things like slavery were different.

That’s my understanding for mostcultures outside of cultures like the Inuit who died younger due to the lack of plants in the extremes they lived in.

Your posts are proof you have an axe to grind and hold illogical views. You are writing off all the events of the Bible because you have decided that your bias is truth when we don’t know what the truth is. That’s not an indicator for being informed on a subject.

More than I could do on my Apple IIe at 64k.

In this case Im not though. You just have an axe to grind against Israel and take that to an extremely illogical and uninformed direction.

Source for life expectancy being much shorter?

First no you don’t know this otherwise you wouldn’t be making such an overtly ignorant claim.

We have no idea if it is a fabrication. We have no evidence that supports the idea that Hebrews and Judeans were enslaved by Egypt but we have nothing that refutes it either. Most of the forms of evidence you would expect to find would not survive thousands of years. We suspect it did not happen but we don’t know.

Why would it matter? Most nations and people have inaccurate understandings of themselves and theor neighbors unless you have a very specific axe to grind .

Do you think those laws matter? You aren’t living in the democratic republic you were living in six months ago.

Because Sierra games were doing it in the 1980s?
