Hateist?

Someone made a Joke today that surprisingly hit me like a good kick to the liver..
IE, it hurt me, made me feel sick, and triggered some deep thinking within myself {except, instead of thinking about how to block said kick, it was what the joke meant... like, really meant}Someone said, I won't go into the whole conversation, but ( Read more... )

That was an odd comment to make... did your friend see the end of American History X? Or the middle? Really anything after the curb stomping scene... That's kinda like making a gay/aids joke based around Philadelphia or a cancer joke about Brian's Son.

You hate people who hate. Your a Bigot(Squared). B2.

Also, you're a sexist. Just sayin'. Not a horrible guy but sexist. Totally.

Bigots are people who hate those that hate people?

And I'm a realist... not a sexist.

And you are right, thank you.
He was a douche bag anyway...
So, yea...

Looking forward to seeing you soon...

'I'm a realist... not a sexist' what does that even mean than?

For future reference, the suffix "ist" means you are "pro" something. Like, if you are sexist, you believe one gender to be superior, or if you are racist, you believe one race to be superior. It's not really a suffix that is supposed to describe negative discrimination and stereotyping. Like, nationalism for example is generally a word that uses the suffix correct. No one accuses you of being a nationalist when you say that North Korea is severely fucked up. Because nationalists believe one country to be better or superior, generally speaking, their own. On that note, I definitely am a nationalist. The only real appendage you can put onto a word to dictate hatred is "anti" so you can be like "anti-black" or "anti-fucktard" for example, and honestly, I think anti-fucktard is the word you were looking for anyway ;)

"-ist" in the case of racist means a proponent of racism, yes, but what does that have to do with anything? Even if John didn't know exactly what that suffix did, he's using it in a possible way. Hateism isn't a word, but if it was, it could mean the belief that some hates are better than others, which is really what he's talking about, it sounds like. As in, gosh, I hate people who hate other people for no good reason, which is why I always have a good reason, haha. "-ist" doesn't denote hatred, it's the root it's attached to, and "anti-" doesn't necessarily denote hatred either. I could be anti-frown, anti-sadness, anti-killing, but none of those necessarily mean I hate the thing I'm against.

And, for the record, it would be a pretty good laugh to listen to John talk about being against people who discriminate if it weren't so sad. You're a sexist, John. And, just so you know, the statement "I'm not a sexist, I'm a realist" reeks of asshole.

I'm starting to wonder if any of you have ever met someone who believes women should only work in the kitchen and take care of children and are incapable of doing anything else at all, like, think for themselves.

John isn't sexist, he just makes it a point to point out the raw physical difference between men and women. I don't remember him ever saying that women are inferior or that men are superior... ever. I do remember him saying "women can't do x as good as men" and technically speaking, the Y chromosome predisposes men to be better at certain things than women... the genetic difference doesn't stop at the penis/vagina differential.

Alright, this argument is so hilariously wrought with holes. My god... You hurt John so badly every time you take his side. Seriously, he's flat out told me he'd prefer it that you didn't. So before you go on about how you know him, take that into account ( ... )
