The credibility of the claim is literally besides the point. It's about the information that was conveyed to contextualize the question in the survey! Does anyone have media literacy anymore?

They do. They understand you cited ADL in lieu of an argument. If it could stand on its own you wouldn't need the citation and guilt-by-association. They understand the culmination of all the surrounding context reduces to a schmittian friend-enemy distinction where you are placing yourself as enemy. Everything else is sophistry.

God, none of you can read or comprehend anything, it's actually incredible. Although to be honest, it makes sense. It's why you believe a guy who never understood a bit of history and believed the Holocaust was a hoax was some kind of genius... because he drew some comics.

Notorious bigot Scott Adams claimed that all black people were members of a hate group because of a response to a survey question about the surveyed's sentiments in regards to the statement "It's ok to be white", a question which was asks in the context that a hate crime watch group identified it as being related to white supremacist groups. And your response is that black people, who white supremacists groups actively hate and target should've answered that yes, that statement that I saw on the news that the KKK is using? Just fine. Again, literal insanity, from the literal insane. And sadly I'm stuck in this asylum of a country with you.

You’re not stuck. Aren’t there any other countries that would take you?

I could buy a golden visa nearly anywhere. But adults have obligations, watching your president tear families apart should've made you realize that.

You do know that American citizens are being targeted, right? There are hundreds of cases of this happening.

Wait, there are hundreds of cases of American citizens being deported? I've only heard of the one guy (whose name I have in a text file somewhere). Where's a good list of the others?

I read what you wrote and read it as sophistry. You reply by adding more.

"It's why you believe [...]" But you don't know what I believe.

"Scott Adams claimed [...] because of a response to a survey question [...]" But his statement is, if one applies some very basic "media literacy" (as you like to call it), clearly rhetorical, with the underlying message that there seems to be a lot of racial hatred from blacks towards whites in the United States in 2023, and that this racial hatred seems to be institutionally supported, and that as a white person of means he'll use his means to avoid this racial hatred and suggests others do the same. The cited survey is merely one data point he presents to support this belief. Arguing as if he arrived at this conclusion purely off of that alone is total sophistry.

I don't live in the US, so perhaps that will give you some reprieve. Scott Adams might well have been wrong. I don't claim to know here if he was, just that you haven't actually contended with his position at all despite writing a lot of angry words, and that this excess of sophistry justifies a dismissive response.

Lol. Well thankfully Scott Adams won't have to deal with any bigotry any more, he can look up at us in peace.
