Reply #14: How is a racist site a refreshing change?

[Violet_Crumble]

There's nothing refreshing about racist sites, and my guess is that if anyone were ever to link directly to LGF, they'd be treated the same way as anyone else who posts links to bigoted hate sites. Of course while the fact that someone at DU is so enamoured of LGF that they've been inflicting a torrent of articles that LGF posts and makes comment on is disturbing and does make me question the motives of anyone who regularly visits hate sites, they're not linking directly to LGF. You try to make out that EI and other sites you don't like are just as racist as LGF. They aren't....

Would this folder be more to the liking of Democrats and liberals if we all resorted to talking in grunts and leaving posts consisting of nothing more than leaving one-line obsessive comments about Arafat and acting as though one Israeli death is equal to several hundred Palestinians? Maybe we should all follow the example of LGF and call them Pals and speak of them as though they're of no more value than dogs and go on about those dirty Ay-rabs who are evil disgusting violent Muslims? Even better yet, we'll all studiously ignore any human rights abuses against the Palestinian people and any time some unsuspecting soul mentions it we'll hit them with a barrage of one-line grunts about suicide bombers. Then we'll all hold hands and visit the FA folder and wonder why folk have got no time for us when we pop up in a thread about Chechnya adding ever-so-valuable contributions like memorial lists for all victims of terrorism that includes the name of Russian troops killed, and thinking up creative ways to repeatedly describe Chechnyan suicide-bombers as the swill of the earth, call anyone who disagrees with our sparkling posts Russia-haters, all the while being very careful never to actually address the reasons why the conflict exists or discuss anything in any depth. That'll teach everyone not to be a good liberal!!

There's several things that DU should shit-can and the I/P forum ain't one of them. I actually like how I can now read about other Foreign Affairs things without having to wade through a deluge of I/P threads to get to them...
