Like you said yourself: do a few seconds googling and you can find all the counterarguments yourself. If I provided a few articles myself, would it change your mind on the matter? Psychology says, not likely, in fact it would probably make you feel more supportive of your initial feelings. So why waste my time? Honestly though, if you honestly want to know why some people have the differing opinion, just google it, and I'm sure you'll find plenty of articles about it.
Why use facts when you can use your feelings as proof? Dont come in here and make a statement if you dont have facts to back it up. Or else you are just a sucker for fake news.
Lol. Fake news. You should try to take a more unbiased look, and watch news from multiple sources to prevent from getting taken in by biased reports.
I am up on far more news than you, and ex pat in taiwan.
But I get that Trump speaks to you, as you are a middle aged white guy looking for something to blame your problems on.
But unless you provide some sort of evidence to back up your first claim, you lost this argument.
Put up or shut up Dave.
You make bold claims Corey, back them up. You don't know what news I follow, you don't know my life and my situation, you only know what I choose to mention publically on NA, and even with that, you don't know how much is true and how much is just bullshit, glorified or not . As I mentioned earlier, do a google search. You will find dozens of articles regarding Obama and race, and tensions. Whether these tensions should be attributed to Obama or not, hard to say, but I'd venture to guess that such situations, whether warranted or not, is what led up to Trump being selected for president.
So what you're saying in is you have no basis for your argument, just another chump spreading fake news.
Yup, that's all I've been seeing from you pal.
Dave: obama was racist.
Corey: prove it
Dave: see, fake news
and you wonder why nobody respects you.
Corey, I probably have more respect in gamer communities than you could ever dream of obtaining. That's the difference between you and I. At the end of tonight's discussion, I'll go to bed and put it to rest, tomorrow not feeling ill will towards those with differing opinions, and even trying to help those folks out who are frequent active members of the forum, just as a community thing.
By your comments, you suggest that based on having differing opinions and viewpoints, it is a justifiable reason for a community member to not be respected. To come from a moderator makes it even worse. .
Here is what I suggest, honestly don't get so vested interest in something, try to take a more moderate approach during life.
