Someone is telling you there are issues with your posts, you then went looking at your own posts and saying to yourself "no, the rest of these are fine"

Do you not see the issue here?

You didn't know any of them were not fine in the first place, that's why you posted them, because you were ignorant about the context and implications

Not an insult, ignorant means you were unaware. Continuing in ignorance after it's been pointed out, however...

That's some dumbass shit right there

To reiterate: it is almost unbelievible to me that someone could see this situation and genuinely be clueless as to why it matters that the asshole in the post is an old white man.

That and the fact that hours later you still seem not to grasp why that stance was treated with such hostility, is why we're treating you with even more hostility

Because you're either a lost cause

or

you know exactly what you're doing and you're doing it on purpose

  1. Yes I do believe that most of what I posted here is fine apart from two comments.

  2. Ignorant is often used as an insult, but I se and concede your point.

  3. I am annoyed at the post talking about skin color when it wasn't needed to make the point. I suppose I get pissed off since I am a white man who tries his best and get lumped in with this shit, I remember back ten years ago when femenists talked about ceyibg men and how they were drinking male tears, I webt through a very tough period of time then and cried a lot, and I guess I took and still take it a bit too personal.

  4. I am fine with a bit of hostillity, but do get extra annoyed when people just assume the worst and come in all guns blazing taking everything I say as being completely terrible and decide I am a horrible person.

It's rare, but it does happen on occasion :)

Try to keep that in mind, and I will try to keep in mind that some comments are just too much work to post.

Well the time is almost 23:15, gotta get to sleep so I can get up and wash my very dirty car tomorrow, have a great weekend!
