Why is bringing up a potential issue wrong? It might not be a problem now, but who's to say how the future plays out? Are people really only allowed to talk about issues after they've already happened?

Because it's a made up black supremacy threat that's nowhere close to happening. He's complaining about some make believe black supremacy movement while BLM is complaining about police brutality and monuments for racists, same story since the literal 60s for both. For anybody who has been living under a rock, police brutality has been a common theme in rap since it existed and it's been a thing since the 70s. Little has changed in decades, so why even entertain his moronic fear mongering take just because in the end he's calling for peace to a threat that he made up himself, to appease a group who like to pretend that threat actually exists so things can remain as they are

KeeperOfShadows posted...

He commented on a situation he didn't understand very well with anecdotal evidence, and attempted to apologize when it offended people. Again, why is this wrong? Maybe he doesn't research things enough before trying to talk about them, but his heart seems in the right place.

Not everyone thinks in extremes, crazy as that may sound on the internet.

Yet this whole BLM exchange with him on Twitter started with him addressing this nonexistent (in his own words shortly thereafter) black supremacist threat which is a pretty extreme take and has evolved to this

And let's not even play into his pathetic clarification gimmick. He's doing it right now, and he's done it before after "consulting" with a LBGT co-star and saying he wasn't insulting same sex parents and was just speaking from his personal experience....even though he doesn't have same sex parents or is in a same sex relationship and was clearly insulting same sex couples raising children.

Terry makes one or two "maybe let's not burn everything down" tweets

It was a few more than that. What's a ballpark estimate for the number of freebies he's given

It's been a year or so since he's pissed off LBGT folk too by volunteering his super hot takes, so when he says another moronic thing about same sex parents as well in the upcoming months does he get another pass as a former internet favorite

There is theorycrafting from just making a gigantic, longwinded, theory based assumption off what Terry Crews said, yes.

Since something not even the size of a short response in high school is "gigantic" for you, I'll dumb it down even more

Jan 2020: Terry Crews hops on TV to go out of his way to back up American's Got Talent instead of Gabrielle Union and witnesses. Couldn't even just say "it's unfortunate it happened", had to go the "I doubt it happened they are very diverse" route.

June 2020: Terry Crews hops on Twitter to randomly tell BLM supporters to not be black supremacists.

Also June 2020: https://globalnews.ca/news/7040596/terry-crews-black-supremacy-tweet/

Also since the entire existence of BLM: people of an oddly common background on social media complaining that BLM is racist because it somehow advocates black supremacy all because it's missing "too" as if that actually would make a difference to them

All of these things happened. Where's the theory? Here's more "theory" taken from his own words

I understand, Tyler. I was not saying Black supremacy exists, because it doesnt. I am saying if both Black and Whites dont continue to work together bad attitudes and resentments can create a dangerous self-righteousness. Thats all, Crews responded to James Williams.

So at best he's just talking to hear himself talk, at worst he's complaining about something that he himself said doesn't exist and people aren't currently doing for ?????????? reason exactly?

Oh crap I realized this was more words than before. Hope you don't revert to "theory" mode halfway through this because there was zero speculation involved

In another surprise of the century, after looking up the Don Lemon clip of course Terry Crews pulled out the tried and true "how can you say black lives matter when there's black on black crime", because we know that random people shooting each other is comparable to paid public servants doing whatever the hell they want to minorities

Why can't I contain all of this surprise

Your take seems to fit that bill better than me, your post was some weird theory crafting from hell, mine was commenting on that.

Yeah so are you done attempting whatever you're doing not addressing any relevant point while talking about other people not reading stuff themselves, or do you want to show the board your ass a little bit more

There's no theory crafting from mentioning what happened earlier this year and the fuckwads on Twitter and Facebook parroting his shit

no reasonable person is saying white people are bad. no reasonable blm supporter wants black supremacy.

so like...okay? thanks for your input terry?

Pretty much this. All he is doing is "confirming" suspicions that racists have about BLM, that there's some secret plot for black supremacy. This not so long after the Gabriel Union fiasco, invalidating her experiences with racism just because he didn't experience it himself, sounds especially questionable, so he's just adding himself to the list of Candace Owens, Kanye West, and Ben Carson where rednecks can point to and think their viewpoints are now legitimized now that they have another black person to add to their small collection parroting their public facade.

But given this board's hate boner about anything BLM, there is literally zero surprise that people are blindly agreeing with his false kumbaya schtick and laughably telling others to reevaluate themselves. Hilarious.

also asking gfaqs for pc advice, my condolences.

Built my midrange PC in 2012 and a month ago after getting advice from GameFAQs both times and I've had zero issues so I don't see the problem. The 2012 PC can still play games, it's just slow primarily from all of the random shit I've installed over the last 8 years and not having and SSDs

If TC wants a comparable build, here's mine from a month ago

https://i.imgur.com/zDnjrnj.jpg (coffee mug placement wasn't intentional >_>)

CPU: Ryzen 9 3900x
Mobo: Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite Wifi
GPU: GTX 2070 Super FTW3 Ultra
Air Cooler: Noctua NH-U9S
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 32 GB 3600 MHz
Storage: 1 TB WD Black SN750 (Windows 10 Pro OS) + 1 TB Samsung Evo 860 + 2 TB WD Blue 5400 RPM
Storage: 1 TB Samsung Evo 860 (Ubuntu)
Case: Lian Li O11DW Dynamic (Black)
PSU: EVGA Supernova 750 G+

Minus the extra accessories like the monitor, keyboard, mouse, and extra case fans + extra cpu fan (installed after above pic was taken), it ran me just north of $2000. Drop some storage and upgrade the graphics card to a 2080 that isn't overpriced and that's pretty much what TC would have.

Since you like RGB, the cases that seem to be really popular right now for showing RGB setups are the Lian Li Dynamic and NZXT H500

I have a Lian Li even though I don't do RGB but fair warning if you go that route, with the hidden compartment behind the motherboard, it removes some clearance and my graphics card (EVGA 2070 Super FTW3 Ultra dumb name) barely fit in there and I couldn't use an EVGA Powerlink I bought

The 2080 seems to be slightly overpriced and you can get a Windows 10 key from ebay in <30 minutes for $10, but otherwise looks good

Edit: https://www.newegg.com/asus-rtx-2080-super-dual-rtx2080s-o8g-evo/p/N82E16814126354

$730. Don't think a slightly faster OC is worth $300 imo. Actually that might be the same model, but anyway that is a huge price difference

You brought up Stephen A Smith. I addressed that by saying nobody gives a shit about what that clown says so it's odd that you pick him as your "even this guy" example. The only time he isn't yelling at 150 decibels indoors on television acting like he's in a minstrel show is when some random athlete dies, and then 2 days later its back to business as usual. Where's the "strawman"

Not seeing anything he lied about there because this was before it became widespread. He said your average person in beginning of March 2020 shouldn't wear the mask, because he was concerned about the mask shortage for health care workers. Flat out stated in the video. Anybody with a functional long term memory should recall all of the Twitter pics and news articles about healthcare workers wearing plastic bags because there was a PPE shortage all while being inches from infected people.

The clip ends with him saying we should make sure masks are first available for those who need it. Dude also spent all April telling people to social distance because, just like he says in the above clip, the masks alone aren't going to prevent you from getting infected

So at worst you can say is that he initially downplayed how widespread the virus would be in the general population, and then adapted his stance as it got more serious. This totally sounds like a liar to me (this sentence is sarcasm btw)

What's the background on this topic?

Just a minor thing pulled from a rando website where there was a chart showing the percentage of students by race who applied and were accepted to a medical program and it was higher for black applicants compared to asian applicants, but the chart left out the number of students who applied so the percentages were an entirely useless statistic.

For example, a 20% acceptance rate when 10 black kids apply (did 10 black kids apply, who knows that's the problem) for a total of 2 black medical students compared to a 10% rate when 50 asian kids apply for a total of 5 asian medical students is pretty misleading and that rando website clearly had an agenda. Also making it suspicious was that it also didn't account for where applicants applied, so there's room for more statpadding if one group applied mostly to very competitive schools and another group settled for something easier to get into.

Ok I swear this is the very last time I'll bring it up >_>
