    I wouldn't be so sure that no men here have beaten women and or abused/oppressed them in some way. I'm sure you're wrong.

        How many people on Apolyton, do you think, believe violence towards women is ok?


        More than a few, though none would admit it. Still the amount of women hating threads on this site disgusts me. I definitely do not count you among them. While I think your even handedness is misguided, you are one of the few that consistently sticks up for women and against women's oppression. I think you may be putting your feelings on others.

                  It can be (though, I may feel bad for laughing). Just as violence against men jokes can be funny if done right... but I'm an equal oppertunity humor finder. It doesn't matter to me who is the "oppressed class".

                  People can think its wrong to joke about violence against men and still think the jokes are funny (just as I know I've laughed at a large number of Holocaust jokes, but they were soooo wrong).

                  It is quite rare among the regulars on this site to hate women and I don't think I'm in a minority about it. There have been threads where people have been slammed for their anti-woman threads (ie, any David Floyd thread in the last year).

                  So then I don't think that complaining about violence against men ads is wrong. I don't think you get to equality by demeaning the "oppressor" class. You just create resentment. For people who really liked the Obama race speech, you people really missed the white person anger part of it .

                  As for putting my feelings on others, maybe that's why I've become more liberal... my optimism in others must be growing .

What these people are doing is making it look like minorities are not dominated at all because they are also oppressing the rulling group? You don't see how transparent people's actions are?
                      Dude I think you are seeing a conspiracy here. Lots of people on poly are borderline faschists but I don't think I've seen them speak out in this or any other thread with racist or mysogenist comments, if not for any other reason then because they know they would be crucified by the vast majority who supports human rights.

                            Yes it is but people call on each others "straw men" on poly soo much that I almost don't notice the word when I read it anymore. I supsects its the same with other posters here. I'm abusing human psychology by finding unusall ways to say normal things in order to add weight to my argument.



                            As you know people are biased when it comes to size, the longer the post the more impressive it seems.

                              Invalid comparison. The NoI is never going to come to power in the U.S., even were they to get 100% of Blacks to support them. You're also wrong about the Nazis not oppressing Jews before they came to power.

                                How do you know this? Also I am refering to black supremacism in general not to NoI specifically.

                                How do you reckon that? If they didn't have the power to change laws or enforce policy they only had the power of commiting crimes against Jews or encouraging the authorities to turn a blind eye to those crimes, the same power black supremacists already have to a small extent and will only continue to gain more of.

                                Honest mistake, it can happen to anyone. I'm not exactly paying attention to what I type, I suppose I should when arguing about importatn stuff. But tell me when was the last time you changed someones opinon in an online debate? Do you think its worth investing energy into?

                                And no I don't use English often, you see there are a whole bunch of crazy countries aroung the world where they don't use the language. And I resent you insinuating that just becasue of the occasiona grave error, or bad spelling when I don't feel like wasting time, my arguments are somehow moot just becasue I happen to have been born in a different culture or that perhaps I suffer mildy from dyslexia. Also have you seen how some people on other sites use the language?! And those are native speakers.

                                If you just meant to alert me to my mistakes you could have easily pointed it out, but you aren''t interested in trying to educate people you are interested in proving your point, in getting your way, in proving that you are right and I am wrong. You may say, yes that is the point of debating. And I would say no to that, the point of a debate is the pursuit of truth. I am always open to arguments and I do not go into a battle of wits hoping to win, I go in hoping to come out wiser.

                                But to call this thread a battle of wits is just...
