And I understand that, but you must refer to a law when speaking about institutions. I can say institutional racism was a thing during Jim Crow because there were laws racist in intent. You can't do the same.

And I agree, but that doesn't mean white privilege. A racist person doesn't mean white privilege and institutional racism.

So, your argument is; "We may not know who the racist people are, we may not be able to point to them, but they exist because I feel like they do"? Your entire argument is based on the assumption that people may harbour racist attitudes, and if the number is large enough, white privilege exists.

But it is NOT HER BODY! People a lot smarter than you have determined this! It is NOT HER BODY! SHE IS DEALING WITH ANOTHER BODY INSIDE OF HER BODY! THERE ARE TWO BODIES INVOLVED! THIS ISN'T DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND. IF IT WAS ONLY HER BODY, WHY DOES SHE NEED AN ABORTION? IF THERE IS NOTHING ELSE INSIDE OF HER, WHAT IS SHE ABORTING?

Okay -- point out something I said that is an assumption.

Why are you getting personal? My religious beliefs have nothing to do with this.

I've answered your questions time and time again. Ask them, and then I'll answer them again.

I think you're extremely confused. I'll clear it up for you.

Slave owners believed; because a human being was on their land, it was their property and they could do whatever they wanted with it.

Women believe; if a human being is inside their belly, it's on their property and they can do whatever they want with it.

It's exactly the same argument.

If I see a man being attacked when I walk home from work, it isn't: "I'm not the one being attacked so it's not my problem", it's: "Someone is being hurt, they could be killed, so I'm going to step in and help the victim"

Your entire argument rests on the idea that it's entirely a woman' body with nothing else inside. If it's only one body, why have an abortion?

No, it's not extreme to say black people aren't suffering from institutional racism. What is extreme, though, is your position. You're saying that blacks are discriminated against and whites have institutional privilege, and you have no evidence of this, none-what-so-ever. Isn't that the extreme position?

You cannot rewrite the law. You cannot say "Don't refer to law because people don't follow the law" The law is written nondiscriminatory because the law doesn't want people discriminated against. We're talking about white privilege and institutional racism -- we have to refer to the law to determine whether whites are treated with preferential treatment over blacks. Unless you're talking about unconscious bias, which is a totally different story, but which I'd love to discuss.

Okay, so how do things work in practice? Explain to me how these institutions are racist in practice?

Okay, so, who believes black people are thieves? You have to name me the people that believe this. You cannot just say "people think blacks are thieves" -- because you have no evidence of that. None at all.

We aren't talking about back when. We're talking about right now. Please don't confuse the conversation.

You cannot claim things without evidence. You cannot say you know what people are thinking because you are not a mind reader and you don't know what is going on in peoples heads.

Again, explain to me how white privilege isn't a myth?

Stop it. You're starting to help me, you're actually humiliating yourself. Get some help.

What? And where did you get this information from? Which medical journal told you that; "If it's under 50 pounds, can't breathe on its own and can't move, it's not a human life".. That doesn't sound very scientific, Birdy..

And I wouldn't gamble human life on you or that advice.

CONTEXT, Dermot, CONTEXT. You don't know about the context he said that in. You cannot just assume what someone means, that's not how this works. You're being very childish.

You're a mental patient.

Again, the debate is about convincing the audience, and what better way to convince an audience than with humiliation? You don't have to agree.

I've refuted your ridiculous arguments over and over and over and over.

So, I can't debate? I'm the only person here providing an argument.

... I'm done with you. You're quite possibly the stupidest person I've never met.

I'm absolutely convinced that he or she is. I have never been in a debate with someone more delusional in my entire life.
