@icedquinn once my body touches don in bed you all are on your own. I dont care if your dying in a hospital and need a pint of my special O- blood to survive... ill be with you at 9am, until then, try not to loose too much blood.

ugh.. I literally just get up to go to bed and get a alert on my watch that someone reported something on QOTO!.. ugh didnt even make it to my bed... lets see what it is...

@realcaseyrollins

So in your opinion treating blacks preferentially is still racist and bad and treating them in a more color blind way is preferable?

@Jojothegoodperson @xarvos

@Jojothegoodperson

Yes he is. When he actually bothers to get into a debate rather than to just avoid it for the sake of keeping the peace, then he almost always has a perspective I appreciate :)

@realcaseyrollins @xarvos

@realcaseyrollins

> They took the civil rights era to mean that they should stop treating black people badly, when in reality, they needed to stop being racist.

Providing examples of what those two would look like would be helpful.

@Jojothegoodperson @xarvos

@Jojothegoodperson Forgot to follow who? I appear to be following your account if thats what you mean.

@realcaseyrollins

Me: We all love you cassey

Cassey: Oh yea? ::hold my beer::

@realcaseyrollins

Well looks like you are going to have to man up and deal with accepting it. Its your own damn fault for being an awesome person. You made your bed now you have to lie in it.

@Jojothegoodperson @xarvos

@Eris

Ok then I have decided to add you back to block. That didnt take long. Best of luck to you.

@icedquinn @NEETzsche @twotwenty @icscarythings @ademan

@Eris

Sure, just be aware I **will** talk with other people. I am just "not here" in the sense of any conversation with you, at least for tonight. We will see if I feel like talking to you int he future. For now ill leave you unblocked.

@icedquinn @NEETzsche @twotwenty @icscarythings @ademan

@Eris

I will keep you unblocked so that in the future when there is a topic I do feel the need/desire to go into full details on where we disagree you will be more than welcome to engage me at that time. For now, this topic is not one I have the time to rehash even if i wanted to. I have actual things i need to do to prepare for my SCUBA trip.

@icedquinn @NEETzsche @twotwenty @icscarythings @ademan

@Eris

Luckily for me I dont have to engage with you whether you accept my reasoning or not. We are done here.

@icedquinn @NEETzsche @twotwenty @icscarythings @ademan

@Eris

I am typing these replies because

1) they take much much less time then me digging up thruough and formal research on the subject like I did before (which was several hours of invested time at the time).. beleive it or not but unlike your responses where you just pull the first nonsense quote off the internet you can find to agree with you (if you even do that much) when I debate something I try to actually do real research. So yes these replies are virtually effortless compared to the time I'd invest in debating this topic in earnest.

2) I actually want to show you some small degree of respect by letting you know why i am engaging you at all. I could have just kept you blocked, and yes you are convincing me slowly I should have done just that. But I felt taking the time to explain to you why I do not wish to engage might be more thoughtful. I guess I was wrong.

I will not comment on this further, as you said it is a time sink and there is no more value in me in explaining this to you in any more detail than I already have.

@icedquinn @NEETzsche @twotwenty @icscarythings @ademan

@Eris

Ok buddy... sure.. when i say I think something is true I am obligated to argue with people ad infinitum until every last person int he world who disagrees with me is satisfied. I need to quit my job cancel my hobbies and devote the rest of my life appeasing every person who wants a piece of my time to debate me. sounds fair.

With 20,000 some followers I barely have time to talk with and keep in touch with the people I actually enjoy talking to, let alone everyone else.
