1) do you think it became "racist" when someone suggested it was?
2) perhaps the guy from oakland is in fact the "racist" (or even "you"?)
3) at least the complainant didn't call the Jing Bao advocate a "turd"
4) unthinking idiocy, and anonymous mud-slinging seem far more offensive
than racism....bigotry is another issue altogether


social engineering = attempting to shape public opinion based upon repeated, usually baseless personal opinion and sometimes even slander - generally levelled at a not-entirely squeekie clean target. example: "George Bush is an idiot" is so often repeated that people start to believe its true. (yet we all know that as a Harvard grad he is not likely a literal idiot.) Social engineers would never focus such a groundless attack upon, say, Condoleesa Rice - she's a "cleaner" target and slamming her would get rebuttals instead of guffaws.

This BBS goes to shit every summer, when school's out
and the critically-thinking student population
is unleashed from their warehouses.
oh, ANYone offended at the word "shit" ?
at least THAT word is not "racist"
