262. Oh blah, blah, blah, I've already answered that multiple times

You've grown boring and repetitive.

Answer one of my questions for a change if you want me to answer any more of yours. Until then, I'm done with you.

Ah what the hell, I'll answer it one more time. YES. I'm willing to accept a small amount of collateral. It's called war. I didn't start it. I don't want it. They started it. But call it for what it is. War. There hasn't been a war in history that hasn't resulted in collateral.

This difference between you and me is I'm not a cowardly hypocrite who denies that there will be a tiny amount of collateral from doxxing racists. But you are too much of an intellectual coward to admit that you are willing to accept a lot of collteral as well, even more than I am, by allowing racism to go unchallenged, and giving those who engage in it legal cover behind a shield of anonymity. Try pointing that judgy finger at yourself once in awhile and ask yourself how many victims of racism there have to be before you are willing to take a stand against those who perpetuate it?

How many? Don't even bother asking me another question until you answer that one. How many victims are you willing to tolerate?
