SaysWho? Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 27 minutes ago, sblfilms said: It doesn’t mean anything, even when Trump says it. The audience imbues the phrase with meaning for themselves. If you ask a person wearing the MAGA hat what it means to them, you’ll get all sorts of answers. I do think one can make an educated presumption about some of the broad positions held by a MAGA hat wearer that are fair prior to any revelatory information by the wearer. As an example it is more likely than not that the wearer favors policies like building the wall. I think that is a completely fair presumption based on both personal observation and policy polls. It does, backed up by his very specific platform. He wasn't giving platitudes and saying, "We're gonna make America great again!" He gave a very specific xenophobic platform and very conveniently brought out rural America for it. I've argued that this wasn't the whole thing, and that as much as I make fun of "economic anxiety," we can't disregard trade and the rust belt. But his main platform was xenophobic and racist, and he won. And you've said yourself a while ago -- you don't give many of your white friends the benefit of the doubt anymore. They know the racism is there. They just don't care. Make America Great, or Pat Buchanan's Make America First (who Trump compliments now after saying in the 90s that Pat hated Jews and black people), all revolve around getting back to the "glory days" of a whiter America, less immigration, and getting rid of the "others." 13 minutes ago, Anathema- said: How can you tell when you beat a new atheist in a debate?

If someone else argues the same point as me and if I quote them then you’ll just have to deal with it. I’v made my case and most will agree that it’s the correct answer. You need a break for your sanity. Just listen to how your talking to me right now. Here is my point: Not everyone who wears a MAGA hat is a racist. MAGA has many meanings to many different people. Most? Who's most? I saw tons of people disagree with you and even make fun of how long threads typically involve you. You don't even know what your case is. Here, let me break it down: You don't belong in the conversation because you haven't made your case whatsoever, purposefully misconstrued other people's posts, and don't even know what they're saying. You're letting others argue things you didn't even say and taking credit for their posts (which only one person is actually saying anything, the other doesn't know what's happening here). I'm having fun in this thread! But it's because you don't get challenged enough on your bad arguments and bad-faith debating, and it's fun to call it out. Most people agree that you're not being honest or being ridiculous (which is something we can prove with numbers ITT!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ort Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I don't think anyone who wears a MAGA hat is a racist, but I have no problem branding anyone wearing that hat as an idiot. Even if you don't have an ounce of racism in your soul, you have to know that wearing a MAGA hat comes with a lot of baggage and just wearing it is sending some strong messages to different people. But I guess that's pretty much the whole point of that hat these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made them over and over for you and all you can do is call me names. For it the last time here it is again. Not everyone who wears a MAGA hat is a racist. MAGA means different things to different people. if you disagree with either of those points, then you are wrong. Period. There is no other argument from me. That is all there is to it.

Anathema- Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I'm not obligated to, nor do I see it as a wise, prudent, or intelligent course of action, to give the benefit of the doubt to any MAGA hat wearing fuckface. If they don't want people to think they're racist lickspittles then it's pretty fucking easy to just doff their chapeau except that's the whole reason they donned it in the first place.

The points you made have nothing to do with what I said. My point is distilled to, "MAGA is racist, but people who wear it can simply be ignorant," and you've gone on several pages thinking I was saying everyone was racist. Just admit you fucked up and move on. I said at the beginning that I thought your debate tactics were bad even though your heart was in the right place. That should have been enough.
