I appreciate it, but I'm just a messenger for Daryl Davis and the great work he's done.

Sorry to keep bringing up Mr. Davis, but it is just very applicable to what you're saying here: Daryl Davis, a black man who took it upon himself to answer the question of "Why do you hate me when you know nothing about me?" by talking to (and in several cases, befriending) members of the KKK...

Couple of answers I can think of... (1) There is strength in numbers, so if you can decrease the numbers, you will decrease the strength. Hopefully in this way, those people whose minds can't be changed for the better will be de-powered (to some degree) because their former peers (who ARE...

Well I think Mr. Davis shows us that 1 person can make a big difference. So my answer to your question of "and what about the rest?" is to follow Mr. Davis' example: interact with (and maybe even befriend) people who have misguided views (which are usually based on ignorance and fear), have open...

Mr. Daryl Davis has done this exact thing. He was directly and indirectly responsible for ~200 KKK members quitting the clan.

At comedy shows? Wouldn't that represent a good time for those kinds of things?

You're late, my friend lol

Crimson, how come instead of saying "Skedar, I'm going to have to disagree with you and here's why...", you say things like "That’s an absolutely disgusting way to think." and "If you honestly feel this way, then you need to never touch or associate with whatever sex you’re attracted to, until...

asking this because I don't know and am genuinely curious... how much of EVO is Wiz? In other words, if Wiz is now out of the FGC, can EVO move on from him and continue in future years? Or was he in fact the main guy behind EVO, and so without him it is 100% done?

Your grandpa has a really bad nosebleed man

remember, you wanted this... D:

I explained/clarified this a few pages back, please don't judge me lol

@RoboCop @Lt. Boxy Angelman @ItsYaBoi @CrimsonShadow @Marlow @Juggs @mrapchem @anyone else I've conversed with in this thread I'm going to stop posting in this thread for now. I think I have communicated my points/positions on things enough, and at this point I would just be going in circles...

So is no one interested in discussing this stuff over skype/zoom/etc.?

Lowering taxes

@Marlow @Juggs Yes I see where you guys are coming from. I did clarify what I meant by "consequences of their actions" above. But in any case, I did not in any way mean to make light or make fun of the very real and tragic situations that family of yours had to go through. I apologize if my...

When I say consequences, I meant whether they did or did not save-up money or preemptively purchase medical coverage.

"And the amount it saves the people who do need the help isn't actually enough to help them." How do you know this, though? How do you know that the government-issued healthcare coverage IS enough to help them? It would be great if we had some numbers to compare the two. "I believe access to...

Okay. I am very much interested in people being financially capable of handling sudden/unexpected medical emergencies (heck, even regular/expected medical expenses). And obviously, you are interested in that too. We have different perspectives on how to achieve this. My perspective: shrink...
