My point, calling something we do not like a bad name, just means we do not like it. Saying that a group all believes or does something you do not like, just means you do not like them or the thing.

When McConkie ran with the whore of all the earth nonsense, it did not mean that the Catholic church or the Tanners were whores. It meant he did not like them, so he called them whores.

Saying conservatives do not talk about race or that they all believe in Q, for example, just means you do not like conservatives and you have invested about the same intellectual effort as a fake apostle calling a church a whore.
Are you kidding?! Stop reading shite that is not there into what I'm saying. What the hell is this about Q?

I'm not saying that conservatives never want to talk about race. Neither am I saying that liberals aways want to talk about race. I said there is an equivalent version of the liberal 'being woke' that exists on the conservative side of the spectrum.

All liberals are not woke. All conservatives are not the conservative equivalent of woke. But some are.

When Atlantic Mike says that "The new WOKE generation is racist as xxck!! They’re removing anything and everything from sports that has to do with native Americans," he's essentially engaging in the conservative equivalent of being 'woke.' He's categorizing without thinking. Please go back and read the exchange.

I don't think that it's racist every time a Native American logo is replaced with something else. Mike apparently does, though I've asked him to clarify.

What about it? Do you think it was racist to swap out the Cleveland Indians logo? Is a tribe being racist every they ask to have their name removed from a high school team's logo?
Nice, Morley.

This is really going a direction I did not expect, but should have predicted.
Atlanticmike made a comment that was more inciteful than insightful. Shocker!

Anything that gets us closer to this (below) is progress in my opinion. Though, be careful. You are bucking the woke trolls here.

It’s interesting that neither of the folks you’ve posed that question to have been willing to answer it. ; )

Sorry, Morley. The MDB drinking game has no awards when you remind someone that a question is unanswered. Only one person can make you take a shot for that expression. If you have an issue with the way the game is played, please make a report. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
