Society/Culture Why I blame Islam for the fact it's raining today....

[Lakeside Swan]

Again, I didn't call you it, I said you were being one (see: your behaviour) because you went on the attack when you were corrected on something.

But see below in response to this:

I frankly don't care about the insults (as in they don't impact me, they just prevent discussion), but he keeps posting about how unfair the mods are, and how everyone keeps insulting him, yet spends most posts insulting users/mods.

Apparently you and me are in the clique, yet both of us have been banned/thread banned recently. Their confirmation bias even extends to how they rate the admin.

So if I say "you're a XYZ" that's different to "you're being a XYZ"? Do you seriously believe that? It's exactly the same thing. I was simply pointing out the hypocrisy of your comment.

Guys, this thread is deteriorating a bit into ad hominem.

Were basically arguing over who called who what now. Can we agree to lift our games?

That was my original intent. Sorry. I should've left it, just dislike someone hiding an insult and then posting over and over in every thread complaining about bans and insults.

Well yeah. If I say "you're being a child" it doesn't mean you are a child. English language nuances. I'm not being hypocritical, I already explained above

Okay. So that means I can say that you're acting like a S.A.D. from now on? Yes or No?

Guys come on.

I wont say it again. Cut it out.

I'll get us back on topic.
I was in Dandenong today,as I walked to get some lunch some Muslims were approaching me from the opposite direction.
One of the women had on the Niqãb and as they got close a gust of wind lifted her veil allowing me to see her entire face and hair.
"I just saw your face" I said.
She seemed embarrassed.
She was positively stunning facially btw.
Shame to hide that dial away on account of the make believe.
I hope she doesnt feel like she let herself and faith down.

Maybe she was just creeped out...

Would you be creeped out if a tall athletic handsome man said to you "I can see your face"?

 

[Malifice]

Would you be creeped out if a total stanger walked up to you "I can see your face"?

Fixed that for you.

Probably if it was in the same manner, I'd assume there was something wrong with you, not exactly something I've ever heard someone say to a stranger

You'd assume?!

 

[Brunswick Trap King]

You'd assume?!

You have to admit that it sounds pretty creepy haha

I've laughed quite a few times today imagining someone actually doing it.

 

[chelseacarlton]

Fixed that for you.

Is that by law that you personally were capable of changing that?
Like Australian law?
Does your opinion ackchually have ant relevance apart from your misguided somewhat opinion?

Don't get so aggressive. Your story was genuinely hilarious.

My son hates me for reasons that I am embarrassed for.

campaigner thing to do, not exactly an uncommon thing in sport. Had a bloke last week refuse to shake our entire teams hand, because he was carded, because he elbowed our captain in the face.
Sports generally just another avenue for people to show their attitudes

Yeah but thats different though, refusing to shake hand for political reasons. If i refuse to shake your hand cause you are white, its different than if i refuse to shake an umpires hand cause i am pissed at umpiring.

Different reasoning. Both just showing that the person is a campaigner/racist/bigot off field and can't seperate.
Wasn't disagreeing that his behaviour was bad. Or that him being strong in his beliefs were the cause. Just saying that it's not uncommon for morons to bring those beliefs into sport

Agree, but people get pissed off at umpiring at all times, its not really bigotry, thats what i mean but in this case, thats more demeaning. You are an Israeli, so i am not gonna sit next to you or shake your hand. When millions of people do the same thing its definitely bigotry.

I'm not disagreeing mate. I'm just saying it's common in sport for off field attitudes to come into it
Have a very bad story about an afghani I played with at my old club

Wish this was just limited to sport though, in the spirit of the game, one should look past politics IMHO

Well that's why they're off field attitudes, they're not limited to sport. They just bring them in with them.
Part of the reason I left Ammos and went back to my old club. Somehow city clubs have worse racial attitudes than country ones

I think that the Olympics have proven that Muslims are the most bigoted and intolerant people in the world. As "Islamophobic" as I am, even I would treat every individual, including Muslims, with respect and would have no hesitation in shaking the hand of a Muslim person.
