One more time.....
Martin,
"Get an ugly girlfriend" has you outraged, but epidemic rape of women and children in Africa compels you to respond only in terms of imperialism and racism? By the way, you still have not given me the courtesy of responding to me directly on that thread. Does anyone else here see a problem with this? Feminists, where are you?
I said this in the thread about rape in South Africa, but I believe it's worth repeating: Martin's HATRED for certain things and states seems to trump his concern for human rights. Because it's black men doing the raping, racism is the issue, but when white men are mysogynistic, all of a sudden women's rights matter most. WTF?
Now that we've covered my faux pas and my ignorance regarding the rules of posting here, will anyone respond to the heart of the matter I've put forth?
I've noticed a trend with other topics too. Do we discuss issues based on truth and facts? For instance, I note that discussions on human rights (or lack thereof) in the Muslim world seem to be taboo. Why? Discussion of women being stoned to death or slavery or gays being murdered in the middle east has nothing to do with Islamophobia, yet those topics are not discussed here. What gives, folks?
