The real reason i made this thread is to laugh at how horrible their posters are. Some of the gems from this weekend include this thread titled
"The one thread to discuss the non-football stuff from the game
Which has posts like this...
Quoted post (Really don't know what we should complain about?)
Response: How about the fact that a state funded university is promoting a marxist political organization that promotes violence and destroys crap?
"How does a “black national anthem” help move us forward? I really want an answer to this"
"One significant worry I have moving forward, as I raise my 4 year old and soon to be second child, is the garbage taught and told in our public education system. Seeing A LOT of politics projected at all grades. Keep that crap out of the 4th grade math class, please."
"All you have to do is obey the police. That’s all and no one gets shot. You ever hear Chris Rock’s advice? “ Just shut the F**k up and no one gets shot”. Anybody that runs, fights, or brandishes a weapon deserves what they get."
I am just thankful that most posters are civil on this board and understand the basics of human rights.
If you see more crap like this on KSO feel free to post it here.

"black lives matter is a marxist organization" is heroin for lite racists
It really is, it's amazing the hurdles of the mind one has to do with it to get to that point.

They're so good they can even come out and admit they're a Marxist organization and the cRusty's of the world will say they aren't.
Props to them.
They've even got a convicted domestic terrorist serving as the CFO I believe.

And they have no idea what that means, if I'm not talking to a bot, I'll usually ask them to elaborate why that's an issue for them. They have no idea it's an economic theory, they think is a social construct.
Also wrong board, and we already have a thread here for mocking the lunatics over there.

Partrise Cullors openly admitted in an interview in 2015, "“We are trained Marxists. We are super-versed on, sort of, ideological theories. And I think that what we really tried to do is build a movement that could be utilized by many, many black folk."
So it's just laughable to think that no one can question the ideological make-up of BLM or any other organization when they openly admit to the foundational doctrines that they have used to derive the core beliefs of their particular body politic.

Who said "no one can question the ideological make-up of BLM?" We're mocking people who act like their issue with BLM is they believe in Marxism when they have no idea what that even means.

Yeah, it's a combination of most of them not knowing what Marxism is and others simply not being honest about what their real issue is. Focusing on Marxism as a critique of a social issue organization is so stupid and transparent. There's no threat of our country ditching capitalism, so why worry about it? .

First of all, if the protests in front of the LA Hospital where the two deputies were sent from this weekend, were BLM members, then we definitely say that at least that faction of BLM absolutely hates cops and wants them to die.
:lol: :lol: Given that BLM has a direct line to organizations like 1000 Currents and in particular noting some of the people that sit on the board of 1000 Currents . . . and then saying BLM is purely a social change organization is an absolute stretch to say the least. It absolutely gives rise to a proper question as to the political intent of BLM.
The "don't worry, capitalism isn't going away" defense is a :lol: 'able strawman of the highest magnitude.

No, if we're going to continue this conversation you're going to answer this question, there's a reason why you literally can't. There's no parsing anything, you brought it up, now you justify your words. What constitutes a BLM Member? It goes to the heart of this conversation.

You're in full blown deflection mode (as usual) you didn't even tackle the second part of what I posted (completely expected) and now you're trying to get into a game of semantics. Okay, if not "members", sympathetic to BLM, participants in BLM actives, I could go on for days.

I don't know what your second point was? Are you referring to your assertion that BLM isn't just a social change org because of 1000 Currents? That doesn't mean anything to me, I don't know what 1000 Currents is.
Was this your second point?
Quote
The "don't worry, capitalism isn't going away" defense is a :lol: 'able strawman of the highest magnitude.That wasn't a strawman and I wonder if you know what a strawman is. The discussion is what fake fears people have about BLM. Caring about a few powerless people who believe in Marxism in a capitalist society is as relevant as caring about if their kids believe in the tooth fairy.
BTW, any organization that accepts donations along with having local chapters (1416 in the case of BLM) can be construed as having some sort of membership/affiliation status for its constituents.
Cool, you want to provide proof of membership of those people laying in front of the ER or nah?

:lol: :lol: There's now an entire wing of the Democratic party that believes capitalism is inherently unfair and needs to be dismantled. Good grief, the lack of awareness. :frown: :frown:
1000 Currents is the administrative arm of BLM.

The reason goEMAW is king is the strict masterthread policy which kso would be much better off with so it would be easier to sift through the crap.Multiple white posters from rural central Kansas are chiming in to confirm that systemic racism has not existed for at least 50 years.

"One significant worry I have moving forward, as I raise my 4 year old and soon to be second child, is the garbage taught and told in our public education system. Seeing A LOT of politics projected at all grades. Keep that crap out of the 4th grade math class, please."
"All you have to do is obey the police. That’s all and no one gets shot. You ever hear Chris Rock’s advice? “ Just shut the F**k up and no one gets shot”. Anybody that runs, fights, or brandishes a weapon deserves what they get."

When I said BLM accepts donations and has 16 Chapters across the country. That is obviously and clearly indicative of an organization that allows people to have some sort of official affiliation or constituent level.

Which is totally fine until it inevitably infiltrates a sports thread. This isn't a new phenomenon either. I mean now is totally obvious and the subtlety is completely gone, but before player empowerment there's always been an intolerance with listening to and discussing broader ideals. It usually goes or went something like this, in a conversation about football someone might make a comment about the mental acuity of a quarterback that happens to be black. If you dare broach the possibility of bias in that observation the thread instantly devolves into posters digging their heels in and instead of discussing the topic the discussion then turns to the person raising the topic of bias.
I've been on that board since 2015, this has played out so many times and as one of very few black message board posters, in this fan base it almost always falls on my head. Does Zac Diles post anymore? I know his post volume is way down. These sports message boards are often much more hostile because it represents for a lot of people a place where they can go and talk to people who supposedly think and look like they do, without the constraints of feeling like you're in mixed company. So as someone who doesn't perfectly fit within these confines, those message boards can be very hostile and frankly exhausting. People do not talk in there the way that they would in a room of even the same people. I think for a lot of people I represent an interloper and my mere presence is threatening. BTW the rivals.com boards are much worse, honestly I think if yahoo and the general public knew what was happening on that board, there would be massive changes. Yahoo has no idea that there is open and persistent white supremacy happening on those boards.
Anyway, I left the first time because Fitz had very little interest in making that board less hostile, which is his prerogative. I went back because I knew that the presence of J Mart would clean some of that up and I was right. Since he left it got bad and since Matt Hall left the hostility on the board is at an all-time high. I've spent my last dime over there.

Guys, many peeps on here tried to warn others about the eventual doom for this board going full “pit”. Most got shunned and called MAGA durps. Not sure what we gotta do to get back to normalcy, but a 4 to 1 ratio politics to sports can’t be good for business. Chings, can you run the numbers since 2016?The free market has spoken

I'm not going to rip you, I'm just interested in the logic. You think that people came to the politics board then based on that decided that they don't want to post about basketball and football anymore? Then they decided it was better to post on a board with an even more prominent political board? Wouldn't it be easier and more logical for these people to just not read posts in the pit?

Facts sys was the boards best basketball poster before oscar, sorry Rusty. During the Frank Martin era sys, fan, kat kid, fatty, rusty, myself, and kougar were probably the most frequent basketball posters.
It was amazing that literally overnight sys went from being the best basketball poster to nearly single handedly running all the basketball posters off with fuckery and unrelenting shitty posting. Sys and trim mumped that board, made it impossible to have good conversations. 2015-2017 bruceketball certainly didn't help.
JMart, fan, and LHC Bill Snyder circa 2015-2018 killed the football board. The coaching search got the football board rocking and rolling again but it was short lived.

1. That the posters who generated interesting content got older and couldn't post as much.
2. Topic-based message boarding as a whole is withering away
I could blame other things, but honestly I don't think they really matter that much.

this place is just a giant group text without having your phone constantly alert that you've got new texts. and that's how I like it. people will come to me sometimes and be like "let's make this place great again! get press credentials! talk about sports more again!" and I'm like, I don't want to do any of that crap and honestly I don't want more friends because I've got a lot now and I want to give each of them the attention they deserve. plus I could ban like 85% of the posters and this place would still pay for itself and give us money left over to buy domains like emaw.com after years of cut throat negotiations with this son of a bitch named Ravi.Steve. I use tapatalk which gives me notifications which is fun and fine. Im still in mhk TBT AND I could be your press guys. Buy me a polo and ill show up to everything. Blog about all of it.

Dakkk the only person here called a racist is you, because you're a racist that posts racist crap.BoardLunatic calls anyone that questions his insane political dogma, racist. BoardLunatic (and others) call questioning the policies and politics of politicians who just happen to be POC, racist.
One of the reasons fewer people participate is that at some point in the process BoardLunatic (who bitches about everything BTW) will show up and call them a racist if they aren’t a total sycophant to BoardLunatic’s political leanings and ideals.
