In all earnestness, what were you hoping for with this exchange? What were your aims, if any?

I came here to try and understand. And I do. It's been real.

one person's shit leveled at me is another person's critical analysis.
this is the internet. you can pretend you never level shit at anyone. i googled you and learnt about the mary beard affair. did she show up on your blog and start shouting?

Liar. You go nowhere to understand. You go everywhere looking for validation. Stop lying to yourself.

I see people... I don't see their class, creed, nationality, race, gender or sexuality. These things are irrelevant to humanity and the sooner we forget them the better. All of these stupid divisions are as inconsequential as hair colour, height, intelligence or fashion taste. Humanity will never achieve its potential because we are obsessed with our differences.

Serious question for commentariat/twitterati types:
Having turned up, skim read the thread and then decided to stick around for a while, would they have so low an opinion of this thread if it was full of people doing nothing but telling them how wonderful they are? Is it that they genuinely feel they're being unfairly treated or that there isn't enough sycophancy for their liking?

Sorry, I obviously didn't explain that very well. I'm the one who's supposed to make legal threats.
Twitter must have a very short attention span, I probably only done about 20 tweets, most of them about farting
In all seriousness though, welcome - my initial comments were a (probably not very funny) reference to what happened when another twitter commentator turned up. (I assume you're a member of the intersectional twitter milieu anyway. I might be wrong though because, and please don't take this the wrong way, I've never heard of you before). Please do try and see past the abraisive posting style some of us have - we are a bit set in our ways when it comes to that - but if you stick around and engage with us you might like it, and come to realise that although most of us don't have much time for twittersectionalism that doesn't mean we're not strongly committed to ending the oppression that it attempts to deal with. Who knows? We might all even learn something. I've only read your first few posts plus the reply to me so it might have gone downhill since but you already appear to be making a better effort at actually talking to us than certain other commentators have when they've turned up.

If only we had some kind of montage of her time on urban.
Good show all round. Very interesting read, made for a lively hour or so.
Sam liked my post, whatever happens next I feel validated

To play along with the intersectionality racket we sort of have to whether we like it or not I think. But it turns out that it's not fair when we score some points.
And what of say Polish Lithuanian etc people. "Seven attacks in 10 days as racist gang targets Polish community in east Belfast" - Do their experiences matter to the likes of Sam at all?

So many particulars. So many questions.
Dangerous Minds. Michelle Pfiefer. Notable only for the use of Coolio's cover of stevie wonders 'past time paradise' (reworked as gangsters paradise)
any more for any more?

I came, I saw, I put my head in my hands and cried.
Well it's wrong on their part to be so hostile, but just like with anyone I don't think people on here engage very well
It doesn't benefit anyone to go on like this, of course these people have wrongheaded ideas but it's not really helping to win forum arguments with them

No amount of cajolery...
Well I see Sam Ambreen didn't reply to my post but its worth repeating, it is (or should be) common sense. Who do you have more in common with in terms of conditions of life etc? Michelle Obama isn't going to be walking down dodgy streets on her own she's gonna be walking past only the nicest ones with her minders and security guards.
I've got far more in common with the people I live with and the people I work with, no matter what the race or religion they are, than say Ariel Sharon or Benjamin netanyahu or someone like that, because whatever type of discrimination we have to deal with can't be as easily dealt with as what they can, because we earn similar amounts and work in similar conditions and spend a similar amount on food etc.
