I think sometimes he even makes fairly astute observations. I don't think denigrating and abusing him is going to do anything more than make him dig in with his fairly entrenched positions on race and power.
Your right he does make good points at times but it is also clear to see that his warped view of racism has consumed him, he lumps all white people together and believes each and every person to be racist which is a massive generalisation and racist in itself.
I don't have a problem, with him going at it hammer and tongs in this thread but it's when it spills out into his other posts on the forum, he sometimes struggles to make a single post without bring 'the black man' into it, as I say he is completely consumed with his own racism and can't even let it go when speaking with a bunch of faceless people online about people he will never know, he isn't going to change the world by spouting off at every opportunity on a boxing forum, he isn't going to achieve anything other than mildly annoy the odd person.
Having said that this thread does appear to be helping him out because he hasn't really been having any underhanded digs about race in the boxing section of the forum whilst all of his energy has been going into this one
You won't find hardly any posts started by me about race.
But you see in your white world, when your around your white friends (mum, dad, uncle aunties) talking shit about black people is just normal, saying slick racial comments is just normal.
You surround yourself in that bubble, that's why my posts hit a raw nerve with you, it comes from outside that bubble.
First off please don't assume that in my white world that I surround myself with people who talk shit about black people who say 'slick racial comments' I can't remember ever hearing my parents or aunties or uncles ever coming out with a derogatory comment because of someones colour, I don't surround myself with friends who come out with that sort of stuff either, mainly because I have black and Asian friends therefore if that sort of language was broken out it wouldn't go down too well, I used to know a kid who I became real good friends with, that was until I got bogged down by his casual racism and sacked him off.
Don't think for a second that your posts hit a raw nerve with me, you are not that important to me, the fact that you place yourself outside of the bubble is what makes me feel sorry for you, for example if you were to come round to mine for a family get together with my parents, aunts, uncles and friends I am pretty sure that you would be absolutely amazed that 'the white man' paid you just as much attention as anyone else in the room and didn't look at you any differently (that is if you could manage to keep your racial generalisations out of a conversation to allow them time to build an opinion on you before they realised you were racist towards them)
and when you say you don't find any posts started by you about race, come on mate you know exactly what you do, you go on the wind up everynow and again, if a fight is coming up involving a white and a black man you always at least have to mention that one of them is a black fighter even though it holds absolutely zero relevance to the fight, as I mentioned earlier you have toned it down in the main section of the forum but for a time it was all you were willing to speak about.
