Did 97 agree he was trolling you? Yeah, he did. Just like I told you he was.
You are a smart guy. But you are not as smart as you think you are.
Where we differ is in thinking " when i publicly say openly racist shit im just trolling libz lol snowflake!" is a reasonable excuse to handwave away saying openly racist and bigoted shit.
You're welcome to defend that behavior, and if you want that behavior to be acceptable defending it makes sense. If you don't, then obviously it makes no sense whatsoever.
Have you ever considered that simply saying that shit in public and this board not pushing back on it is a negative even if that person later comes out and says "lol i was trolling u!"?
You've had a few chances this morning to practice what you preach and defend decency with the same vigor you defend bigotry. You declined. It's just who you are.
