    Calling white men racist seems to be the new "have you stopped beating your wife"

    I thought the consensus was that white men are automatically racist. Why is it necessary to even ask the question?

        Seems you are asking the exact sort of loaded question that btc oppose to. He wrote:

        "But what of those of us who don't? How do we answer that loaded assumption without agreeing with it? How do we NOT give an answer without appearing evasive or silently confirmatory?"

            Reminds me of the claim/joke that denial of a drug problem means you have a drug problem. But what if you never drink alcohol/smoke/consume illegal drugs?

              My post was entirely sarcastic.

                Wouldn't a better comparison be "have you stopped being a rapist"? Another question to not answer in a yes/no fashion.

                I never beat my wife, because I am not even married! And I'm a woman that couldn't actually beat up anyone.

                  "I never started".

                    Then they'd claim you were lying! Or insist that you answer with a yes or no.

                      That's sexist. Women can beat up anybody they want!

                        I personally don't have the strength to beat an adult in a fight. And I don't want to hurt a young child. My plan for self defense is look out for danger and run.

                          Exactly. And how can you prove you never started?

                            Well, I'm single. But I do have a reputation of being too kind and sweet to ever actually use physical violence.

                              Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...
