Evolution = racist

Gravity = racist

The Earth revolving around the sun = racist

Light bulbs = racist

Black lights aren't racist.. stop generalizing light bulbs.

Notice my word choice.



Clearly referencing it as a scientific term and not commenting on its different historical usages.



Oh look. You're conveniently denying that it's a scientific term. Unless of course you're just not communicating clearly your intent with specific word choices.

Quit putting words into my mouth in order to discredit my moral integrity and ignoring all the times when I made clear that I wasn't speaking of its non-scientific usages. That's called an "ad hominem" logical fallacy and it's bull****.

You did not which is why I briefly stopped going back in forth with you because some of your statements were offensive imo.

I believe the politically correct term is "African American lights". Also, scientifically it's acceptable, but I wouldn't use "negroid lights" in a social context.

If you thought anything I said was racist then that's because you're actively choosing to misinterpret my statements in a way that justifies your erroneous claims. Don't blame your biased lack of reading comprehension on me. I don't appreciate being called racist simply for not agreeing with every single thing you say regarding race.

We get it. It is a scientific term that also happens to be a racial slur. No one is debating that. The only point I'm trying to make is that context distinguishes the words meaning and Batlord acknowledged that (you said he didn't).
YOU may get that but the batlord needs to articulate his own thoughts, not you.

And he did not clearly articulate that point.

I never called you a racist but yes your earlier posts on this topic were biased and outrageously offensive.

Don't try to act like a saint now since your getting called out.

That's why I quoted you this:

I'm not having a private conversation with him outside this thread. You and I are both reading the same words Soul. If that quote isn't articulate enough to show he can tell the difference between the words usage Idk what to tell ya.
