I would like to take this time to thank Blue for at least deleting some of the more offensive comments in this thread. I'm not sure if he will appreciate my thanks depending on his own personal views, but rules are rules, and I am glad he did the right thing. Thankyou.

A voice of dissent in a sea of madness, it's not an easy thing to live with, I know. I apologize if your enforcement was against your will. I hope this thread will be the last 'ugly' thread I post on. I really only come here for the gaming news, but this is a special case where politics infringes on my escapist hobby.

Thank you for running this site with such a dead set journalistic professionalism that other gaming news sites can only dream of. You report most of which is worthy, for that I thank you, and also for that I will continue to visit for as long as the site is online.

This is why I don't like those rules. Now some 23 post suspect gets to create an account solely to spew a bunch of crap and when someone responds (breaking insult rule) he gets to make a post like this. Let all posts stay, the ugliness speaks for itself no need to "hide" it.

Wow RailWizard, you created an account solely to troll... Helps make you a feel like a big man and hope that it will make those gay urges go away?

You keep claiming that homosexuality is wrong yet offer no proof how it is wrong.

Yes, I have read your comments and to put it bluntly, you insult and try you best to down talk and belittle everyone you can. That isn't arguing, thats acting like a spoiled child that wants attention and refuses to acknowledge they keep being proven wrong. Please, sit down, calm down and when you feel like hitting that Post Reply button try to act calm and mature and try to have some facts to contribute to your attacks against homosexuality.

Mostly this means contributions to technology, but also religion is big factor as well. Remember, I am not religious despite this. When it comes down to it, black people have not contributed anything to society.

In any case, why shouldn't white people have a "White Pride" time set aside? Is there another, of course this encompasses a great many races, race that deserves it more? Others may have invented some of the tech we now hold for granted, but it was white people that put it to work and created the nations you now take for granted. I am not saying I want to see a "white pride day" happen, I am just saying I see the fallacy in "black pride day". If you do not, then once again, keep drinking that kool-aid.

You are no different than those who deny that we landed on the moon. Rabid narcissism, irrational stately obedience, reckless demonisation. These are your tools, not mine. Enjoy them while they last.

Hey, what about White People Appreciation Month!?




Have you ever noticed how dumb that argument is?

No, but I have noticed how dumb your argument is. I would also like to thank you for bringing race into this, as it has many parallel issues with this situation and I was debating bringing it up just for comparisons sake.



I have a somewhat unique perspective on this, as my race(which does happen to be a shade of white) was interned during the last world war, and yet we receive no compensation for it, nor has any been asked for. Yet we(sovereign nations) must bend over backwards for others who had the same happen to them, and it still doesn't seem to be enough because apparently it's a debt that can never be repaid. Of course if we speak out about it, we are labeled as racists/bigots or w/e other cop out labels what have you.

In short, you've been drinking the kool-aid of political correctness for far too long, and you don't want to go down this road with me...

You won't go down the road with anyone, you just pretend like people are too stupid to actually spell your opinions out to, because its easier to write it off as opposed to see your argument get ripped to shreds.

Every response you make is basically 'well your too dumb to get it so i won't explain, BUT I'M RIGHT.' There are few replies you've made that don't take this tack, and it speaks more to the weakness of your argument, and your inability to defend it, than other peoples.

First and foremost example being, only white people can be racist. When black/asian/arab or whoever else does it, it's 'ok' because they are somehow entitled to such racist opinions, purportedly because they are a minority, when in reality, on a global scale, nothing could be further from the truth. If you don't see this, well, I am likely wasting keystrokes on you.

Hahaha, who, at any point, said that non-white people can't be racist? No one made that claim -- You insist they are, but no one did. People of different races are also racist, and they can even be racist towards their own race, Just as white people could!
Stop putting words into peoples' mouths, once again you bring out the straw man because you can't actually support your arguments.

Hey, what about White People Appreciation Month!?

Ok then, explain this genius. That fact is, that you are too dumb to realize what's going on, either that or you do realize but you don't care/are intentionally being obtuse to further a devious agenda. You stink of leftist ideals. Let me guess, you'll be voting 'Obama' again, right? Cause reality makes no difference to you, only your ideals matter.

And once again, you just pretend like people are too stupid to actually spell your opinions out to, because its easier to write it off as opposed to see your argument get ripped to shreds.

But if you insist, lets BRIEFLY go down this road (though it is certainly off topic.) I won't even need to insult you, as you clearly feel is necessary to arguing, as opposed to actually supporting your views...

The simple answer to this is, White people haven't had to deal with any serious racial setbacks. (white people certainly suffer setbacks, but it's rarely if ever due to their race, it usually has to do with their socio-economic conditions.)

The longer answer is, the goal of black history month is to educate people about a relatively narrow period of African history, the time period when Africans dispersed (either willingly or against their will) to other continents. It's also to instill a sense of pride in African American's cultural heritage, because hundreds of years of relentless racism will tend to take that away from you.

In American schools, most of what we learn is 'white history.' Whites have also never been discriminated against as a whole on race. Many white people are able to trace back family trees hundreds of years. Is there any need to instill pride in white people about their heritage?

I know how much you love to bring out the straw man, but lets try to avoid such fallacies and finally, lets get back on topic.

I told him to go find a seminar on privilege, but people like him are beyond help, Draugr. Their desire isn't to learn, but to be miserable and make the world a lesser place.


I know I'm just throwing stones here, but I've been down this road with too many people. There's no helping them. You just bring them around the back of the shed and put a bullet in the back of their skull. It's the only way to get throw that incredibly (and usually willfully) dense head.

Ever think it's because you haven't, either?

All you're throwing out is pointless rhetoric, then somehow connecting it to political agendas.

Incidentally, I'm not surprised you have "Wizard" in your name, as David Duke would agree with every single post you've made. You've been homophobic, racist, misogynist, and all around hate filled. You've puked out a whole lot of bile and, sadly, construed it as valid arguments.

It's painful to read what you say. You know this, too, which is why you registered a fake name to make all of these posts. You don't want to be connected to this. And, if you want to keep tying this back to politics, I'm sure you're the type that's in the bottom 50% but staunchly defends the top 0.1%. I'm sure you think there's nothing wrong with Ron Paul saying "the government caters too much to big businesses" and, in the same breath, saying "we need to decrease regulation and free the market."

Honestly, you really are just a hate-filled monkey.

And Blue, space captain has actually been less insulting of late and more making random, sometimes hysterical, comments. I vote for leaving him. He trolls far less than he used to. Nothing he does is really any different than what, say, Cutter does. Space captain tends to be more on-topic, if anything.

I won't bother educating you. It's not worth it, as people like you never learn. You sit there whining and saying stupid crap without comprehending how much more difficult your life would be if your skin were a different color, your sexual preference a different gender or your lower outie was an innie.
