I'd like to think I can constructively contribute to this thread..
While some of these personal attacks are hilarious, when it comes to the actual issue/ subject line...you are talking past each other.
And by "you" I'm mainly referring to uh-n&Diode, and N-wordJim&Diode..

@uh-oh,
I guess as far as being a white male who doesn't feel the ills of society to the core on a daily basis, the main question would be about the future, and the sustainability of systemic issues which you might not feel now but could certainly feel later if/when the shit hits the fan.
I don't wake up in the morning and worry about college debt, stagnant wages, and Citizens United. But am I grateful that people are out there bringing attention to these matters and "fighting" for causes to help the situation?. You better believe it. If those 3 things I just mentioned don't sound like "big deals" to you, then I don't know what to say to you. I mean, you're a smart guy. Answer me why you make 12 bucks an hour with your intelligence. I've got a feeling it has more to do with the 2nd issue I mentioned than any reflection on your value in the marketplace.
I could continue but I hope you see my point.
Just because "we" don't "feel it" now, does not mean that major structural issues could not fuck this country entirely.. to the point where even white males who can afford decent food and prostitutes would really feel the Ills.

@Diode,
you seem like a reasonable guy but then again I have not seen all of the context and past arguments for why NiggerJim holds such opinions of you. I'm willing to hear you all out, but tbh I would not go out of my way to do so, and am not too concerned.

@Nigger Jim,
I understand you're using an extreme example to make a point, but the Dick Cheney 70% charity example is pretty laughable. The guy was a corporate and industrial shill in Congress and a war criminal as VP. And, to tell you the truth, I don't think those are subjective opinions; they're facts. Now, let's assume the 70% figure is correct, let's ask ourselves if the 30% is still more than he needs (Yep), and how many lives and environments did he "indirectly ruin" to get the 100%?.. You seem to be well-versed in Christianity..Will the 70% get him the wink and nod from St.Pete?, or will there be an *asterisks*- so to speak- regarding the awe and shock of hundreds of thousands of dead?, or the destruction of American values. I don't know a percentage, but I can tell you with certainty that not every person we tortured at a CIA blacksite was a terrorist. God bless
