Don't worry, the scroll wheel on your mouse isn't going to break. If you're not interested, just keep a-scrollin.
Think about how much more effort it took to make several posts in this thread than it would have taken just to move along.
You, like another poster, want to dismiss any question of the value of this video by simply saying "lol don't read it then". That's conversation stifling nonsense, and it's avoiding the issue. If you want an echo chamber, find another board. I'm genuinely curious why the board has reached the point where any sort of commentary on race that exists on the Internet and is agreed with merits a thread, which implicitly grants the source material a level of validity that's not always warranted.
This is some lowest common denominator ish that produces agreement from the same posters and the occasional dope who drops in, makes an offensive post, and gets piled on, and low odds that person learns anything because they're likely to retreat into thinking people who attacked their opinion are the problem and not their opinion in the first place. What does this achieve? It makes the participants happy, I guess. Woo?
Starting threads with this as the basis for discussion isn't promoting a productive discourse and I think that's bad given the importance of the topic. I'm pointing this out to try and improve the discussion, but hey, questioning the thread can be dismissed as just thread shitting amirite?
