UB, in this space was a well-thought out post defending my position that The Wire is a shitty show with undertones of racism towards whites. I went on to explain that although I did not think this makes me a racist, bigoted, elitist prick, I can see how someone who is not looking for this type of thing could easily miss it and misconstrue my feelings, somehow, as racism.

But then I realized that I don't give a fuck if you like me, UB. In fact, after that post, I don't think I like you all that much. You're the one who sounds like an elitist prick when condemning someone as a piece of shit because they don't like your show. I've not once said a harsh word in your direction while I was explaining the many reasons why I don't like The Wire, yet I've counted a vast amount of insults from you with absolutely no provocation. I'm sorry that you buy into the whole white guilt thing, but I make no apologies for not doing so myself. And I'll be god damned if I'm going to praise a show that deliberately and exclusively casts white people for characters that are weak, insecure, unstable, and blatant villains. If you can see past that shit, good for you. You can praise the fucking show all you want, I don't give two shits what you think.

The fact is, 99% of the racist things that I say on here and in real life are said in jest. Perhaps I have a bit of a twisted sense of humor. Many of my best friends growing up were part of minority groups. I have much love and respect for them and their families. My beef isn't with ethnic groups, it's with the institutions that manipulate public opinion through subversive messages regarding race and racism.

I try to be a nice guy, both on the boards and in real life. I think many of you can attest to that fact. The whole Michelin-rated restaurant thing was an obvious lie, said for my own amusement, which would have died there if you did not feel the need to try and belittle me with your response to the obvious lie.

I'm not even going to address all the other bullshit you brought up, because I'm "real" and secure enough to not need to. Frankly, you said some harsh shit to me, that, if someone were to say to my face, I would spit in theirs.
