There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.
Quote:When someone makes a statement about the apparent superiority of one group of people over the other, whether indirect or implied, I am not going to engage in an argument with them.
Yet you still have to provide said argument. Otherwise, this is just: "I don't like what he said, so I'm going to get angry".
Emotional babbling is not debating.
No. It is this: "I think what you said is moronic which makes wonder whether you have ever had any sort of education". I thought I had put across my thoughts very clearly.
The OP's reasoning went like this: "Opinion of Europeans >>Opinion of Asians because I think Europeans are of superior intellect compared to Asians." Basically implying that Asians aren't smart enough. Or stupid, in other words.
My retort went along the lines of: "I think what you have posted is idiotic (or something of very low intellect) and your opinion doesn't really matter."
So in a way, I am only using the OP's line of argument.
Now, I could go ahead and post a detailed argument, but there are a few problems with that approach:
1) This is not a history forum.
2) Asia is the biggest continent on earth, it's history, the cultures and civilizations it gave birth to are too diverse and immense for people with pea sized brains to understand and comprehend.
3) You might like to debate with ignorant bigots, I don't.
4) When, and with whom I choose to have an argument, is entirely my prerogative.
