Just so it becomes absolutely clear to every reader, here, I was never ever rude to "luckyr" in any way, shape, nor form.

What, exactly, was it in my writings for you to come to such a completely Wrong and Incorrect conclusion that I was?


Why would I look up any thing's elaboration of another?

I much prefer to ask 'the one', directly, for 'their own elaboration' on what 'they', "themselves", have previously said or mentioned.


I agree that if some one, here, says and writes some thing, then it would be so-called 'nice', and appropriate, that from 'their own words and/or illustrations' that they clarify, elaborate on, back up, and support their own views and positions. And, for the very obvious reasons.

Do you ever want to volunteer about something you like?

I have been 'volunteering' what I like, continuously, throughout this forum since I arrived, here.

Which is, knowing that when you human beings become open, and remain Truly open, then you will, also, really begin to recognize, learn, comprehend, and understand, what is actually Irrefutably True, Right, Accurate, and Correct, in Life. Just as long as you also have curiosity to really want to learn more, and anew, are Truly honest, really want to change, for the better, and have let go of all of your beliefs and assumptions, then you too can not stop learning, as well.

Have you not noticed me very frequently volunteering what I like?

Again, what I like is to find people who are Honest, Open, and who seriously Want to change, for the betterment of all, so as to have peaceful discussions with.

In order to have discussions with others you first need to take the risk of giving something of yourself that leaves you open to criticism.

So, you just continue to do what is negative, and thus Wrong, in Life, for some, yet to be explained, so-called 'mundane reasons', correct?


Just what the simple irrefutable fact is, 'I' wanted to make them, and then just made them.

If, and when, 'you' also know, Who 'I' am, exactly, then 'you' would also have gained 'the understanding', here


'Trying to' deflect and deceive, instead of just being open, honest, and forthright, is also a negative and Wrong behaviour, in Life.

I've been reading Lucky's posts for years and they have always unvaryingly open , honest, forthright. If you disagree with Lucky or any other posts you must quote what precisely you disagree with.

It's true that it is bad manners to ask personal questions without taking your turn to say something about yourself.

I am not sure why you have been 'sucked into' the detraction, deception, and deflection, here, but I just asked the question,

'What even is 'racism', to you, exactly?'

To wit "luckyr" responded,

'Racism is discrimination based on "race".' And,

'Race, of course is a subjective term that has no objective meaning, that is it means whatever folks want it to mean. Or to put it a different way, races don't exist first, then individuals use racial distinction to discriminate. Instead individuals choose to discriminate first, then races are created along the lines thst the individual prefers to discriminate along'

Which, I have just been trying to get "luckyr" to elaborate and back up, and support. I would just prefer "luckyr" concentrated, and stopped 'trying to' deflect, and to deceive you readers, here.

Interesting. So you need me to "back up and support" my quoted statement, eh? Funny that your original response to that statement was:

Now 'we' can accept and agree that every adult human being, in the days when this is being written, is 'racist."

Sounds like you agreed with me completely.

In order to have discussions with others you first need to take the risk of giving something of yourself that leaves you open to criticism.

But, just writing or saying any thing to others could be considered as giving some thing, to be critiqued.

If one is actually open, or not, to criticism however can be and will be recognized and seen in how they then respond to replies.

Is there absolutely any thing in what I have said and written anywhere throughout this forum that you would like to critiqued?

Again I Truly love to questioned, challenged, and/or critiqued over absolutely every thing that I have said and written because as far as I am aware I have already obtained the irrefutable proof that could and would back up and support just about absolutely every thing that I say and write, here.

So, please be my guest and challenge, question, and critique me over any and every thing that I say and write, here.

But, just writing or saying any thing to others could be considered as giving some thing, to be critiqued.

That's not quite true.

What is the exact 'actual thing' that I said and wrote, which you are now trying to claim is so-called 'not quite true'?

Is there absolutely anywhere in what I have said and written that led you to believe that I have alluded to absolutely any thing about, 'Asking questions is sufficient by itself to allow for reciprocity'?

If yes, then where, exactly?

Belinda wrote: ↑Mon Aug 18, 2025 9:46 am You also need to say something about your very own beliefs concerning e.g. racism

1. Once more I only have one belief, and it certainly has absolutely nothing at all to do with 'racism'.

2. I have already said and claimed that you adult human beings are 'racist'.

Now, if you really would like to criticize 'that claim', then please, by all means, go on ahead and just do it.

What?

I claim that you adult human beings are 'racist'. Did you miss this?

And, why do you continually refuse to answer the questions that I pose, and ask you, for clarification purposes?

That racism exists is implied in the original question at the top of the conversation. You added nothing new.
