      When you are talking about the US specifically it is pertinent. I know you want strip racist aspects of these things from the conversation, but that is stupid.

        Why would we talk about the US and why would the race matter there? Why are you adding the racist bits?

        You can’t just say a thing without bothering to explain to a person who clearly doesn’t understand something

          Did you not look at the post you are commenting on before you decided to comment? I do not understand how you didn’t know this post was about the US when the person in the post is talking about the US’s independence day holiday, and the announcement of the passing of US legislation on that day, but believed you had a valid opinion on the subject. The whole thing is about the US. If you read a post, and you are uninformed about what it is talking about, or otherwise do not understand it, maybe rather than commenting what’s what about it, you instead look it up, or ask someone first.

          Kevin Nash, the person who made the post in the screen shot, is talking about the US when he mentions white billionaires. There is a long, detailed, well understood, history of racism within the wealth disparity of the US. Racism that favors white men. If you would like to know that history, you can look it up, it is an easy subject to find information about.

            Butterthumbs, attempt just attempt to do something more than making statements! Pretty please?

            What difference would it make that we narrow the borders of the world to your(?) countries borders? Does your white billionaires act differently than any other billionaire?

              If you attempt to understand that you are replying to something on the subject of the US, specifically, I might take time to explain something to you that could much more adequately be explained by reading an article found from a search on the subject.

                You have time to reply 40 times but you don’t have time to explain whether there is a difference between white and any other billionaires, and whether there is a diff between american and other billionaires…

                  I am not typing out an academic paper for you to explain why someone talking specifically about the US would use the modifier “white” when discussing these issues, as they pertain to the US. If you are not able to grasp the concept of a conversation having a subject, and not discussing things outside of it, I doubt you would be able to grasp something more complicated.

                    A very short oversimplification would be fine too, but pretty sure you won’t be doing that either as I am growing ever more certain that there is no difference between american or any other billionaires! And I think you think so too, for refusing to even say yes or no; reckon as a sort of deniability

                    Buttercracker, I know that despite living in by far the most dystopian country that is hardly even becoming first world you think of yourself as special for some strange reason! But no, you can discuss about things that are universal or even completely other topics under any post! Even if its about the us!

                    This is now your… 6th reply to me? Don’t lie to yourself, you have all the time in the world! So no you are not not answering the question for your lack of time

                  Also, I never said white billionaires were worse than others, I said that there is a reason to call out white billionaires with this piece of legislation due to it being american.
