    1. Is it too crass to say LOL here? I’ll say it anyway, LOL!

      BTW, you forgot to mention that it is only overly sensitive, PC-obssessed white liberals who have issues with your Islamophobic arguments, not the actual brown people you are cheerfully slandering.

      Sometimes I pity white liberals. They get blamed for everything.Report

  1. Completely unfair. As a matter of fact, this is so unfair that I question the integrity of anyone who says “I want to read the comments” and is reading this one.Report

  2. This comment posits that anyone who disagrees with me is a bigot. Also, a false equivalence, an insinuation, and an expression of concern about what some people — who are not me are probably thinking. Which would be difficult to refute.

    Not saying I agree with it, but hey.Report

  3. At least Robert Cheeks acted like he was taking the conversation seriously, and he can’t even post on the front page!Report

      1. One of the photos I put on the dating site was of me with my arms crossed and a grim expression. I captioned it “i are serious (DensityDuck). this are serious photo.”

        My wife said that this photo/caption combination was one of the things she liked about my profile.Report

  4. This is why we give contributors free reign. If one post is deemed ‘unfit’ for the front page, there are always other writers who will step in to right the balance.Report

    1. It REALLY FROSTS MY SHORTS when people say that they “give someone free reign“. The aphorism you’re thinking of is “free REIN“, like reins on a horse. Yes, your spell checker says that “free reign” is okay, butt tats be cause the spill chocker is a maroon.Report

  5. This is a bad pun, intended to lighten the mood of a discussion that’s gotten really ugly.

    Now I’ll make up for that by writing something really insulting.Report

  6. I love this post. The great part about it is that I can’t even tell if this is supposed to be about anything in particular.

    The important thing for me is, in spite of this we need to talk to each other nonetheless.Report

  7. Insulting the president, while misstating his religion, nationality, and political philosophy.

    Calling people who disagree with me politically names.

    Calling members of other religions subhuman.

    Using a lot of big words to demonstrate my deep knowledge of philosophy.Report

  8. I’ve been choosing to do other things than come to this site for a while, but gotta say: this post is awesome, Alex. It reminds me why I fell in love with it in the first place.Report

  9. Nuanced point only partially germane to the post. Follow-up statement about how this is alluded to (badly or incompletely) by a comment on a previous post in the last five days.

    A witticism.

    Finally, a long-suffering sigh about framework arguments.Report

  10. This is a post necromancy comment so I can tell myself I “won” the argument by getting the last word in.Report
