    Watching white people still be in denial about directly confronting their racist half.

This one's been frustrating. Say what you want about Obama, but at least the dude can publicly acknowledge how fucked up our country is.

    Some of y'all got a permanent sick in your asses, so I don't comment

Think you'd comment more if we removed that stick?

Well, yeah. The conversations here are generally great. Some people just walk the line between discussion/debate vs arguing a little too often. I describe the behavior as this kindof very well worded verbal assault. Like: "how can I tell you to STFU in the most reasoned way possible." The aggression seeps through, but maybe I'm projecting.

Nah, I get it. I'm trying to get more casual discussion running by posting to #askhubski a few times a week - we'll see how that goes. I don't mind that tone when it's related to politics or something important/impactful, so I'm hoping that providing more opportunities for people to just talk about neutral shit will help mellow the average discussion without diluting the passion people have for some things
