Deontay Wilder: I could legally kill Tyson Fury

Yes and it has been reported that is he some delusional weirdo lol its hilarious

 

You think there's "no comparison" between the suffering of the Irish and the transatlantic slave trade?

Dear God, could you be any more uninformed?

Seriously, try doing some research before you make such a ridiculous claim.

 

He really has no clue how much the Irish went through.

 

Just a bit of advice if you're willing to accept it. The oversimplification of the term “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” is almost criminal, although I'm a firm believer in the concept and its symbolism. Your last sentence seems to blanket everyone's boots an ignores the initial condition of the footwear you're lacing up. Not completely sure if my extended analogy does the idiom any justice lol, but I'm essentially saying everyones journey out of oppression or repression is different.

 

Jesus H fhooking Christ! You are the ultimate purveyor of the term 'word salad'.
What complete and utter cobblers........incomprehensible, over the top nonsense and the poster you were replying to was absolutely correct in stating that the Irish have dealt with more persecution, starvation, genocide and brutal occupation than most nations in existence. Just look into the history of Oliver Cromwells military campaign against the Catholics in Ireland and that is just one man during a very brief period in Irelands history.

 

I guess with how fertile some of the land by the Mediterranean is, north Africa can't really be blamed for falling into sedentism. After all that's where Africa's greatest civilisations originated for the most part. Both West and East Africa are still really untapped wells of potential. South Africa is relatively well developed but it's just a total mess in terms of organisation.
A small group of wealthy agriculturalists and industrialists owning large portions of the available arable land definitely limited the opportunity for economic growth in so much of Africa. Combine that with rampant corruption and a ready willingness for foreign nations to exploit that corruption to their own ends and you have a lot of underdeveloped nations and impoverished people.

 

Most don't in fairness, as influential as our tiny nation is, it's still only one tiny nation in this massive planet. Most people from the Americas couldn't imagine anyone white having gone through something worse than slavery since that's the biggest historical black mark on their continent (even though I'd consider the way the Native Americans were butchered a good bit worse, it doesn't get nearly the same attention).

 

Wow, your level of naive realism is above and beyond what I've experienced in quite some time.

I remember being a young man and speaking with my grandfather while in Puerto Rico and him using figurative and allegorical speech to describe what the sugarcane symbolized for us and then segued into similarities of the great famine and the paradox of the potato. No need to get into the details but the sugarcane was both a blessing and a curse for those colonized by the Spanish in the Caribbean.

It would help if you stopped being so presumptuous. I do it too, difference is I fall back when I see it's only hurting my position. Simply put, I'm humbly familiar with the plight of the Irish.

 

what do you mean some? most of furys fans are no different than wilders fans. bunch of emotional fanboys protecting their ego, as if the fighters triumphs and defeats say something about them, because they feel some type of connection.

 

Do most non-Americans think the same way within your circle? I’ve researched dozens of mass struggles within a number of different nations, I've already mentioned it's part of what I do and a good portion of my post grad degree.

That's a terrible rep to have lol, I guess that's why the Parisians were so rude to me when I started pointing out the pieces of art they expropriated while “visiting” other lands. The museum tour guide pulled me aside and told me to go **** on the Arc De Triomphe during the day so a cop could shoot of my member. I was only busting his chops or, as you may know it, engaging in playful banter.

 

I'm talking about the hardcore racist fans, Fury has less than Wilder but also a reasonably notable contingent.

 

i read. im smart. i can see who and what we have here.

 

Americans do have a rep for being quite clueless about history outside of their own, and even then they have a rep for being ignorant of their own history often. I know it doesn't go for all of them but I must say I've encountered a lot of Yanks who back up that notion. By the way I'm born in America myself so I don't hate America or anything, it's just the attitudes I've heard expressed by certain Eurosnobs.
Btw Parisians are rude in general, I wouldn't take it personally. The French have a very high opinion of themselves too, humility isn't in their nature at all. They treated their subject nations arguably worse than the British (they did little to modernse them in any way) and they collectively have little remorse for it, so to levy those charges at them would be treated as a great affront to them.

 

One thing i will say is wilder is really a glass half full type of guy.

There is a way better chance of him getting killed in this fight than killing fury

 

I won't entertain the soft insult, you're taking my point out of context and applying a reductionist philosophy to it. They are different in type an kind. The similarities do not outweigh the deviations.

I'm not being ridiculous, just factual, it isn't an insult but your just not seeing the pertinent distinction in timing, place, cultural dynamic, perpetuity, proliferation, government legislative, cultural stigma, court system, recency.... Like I said we can discuss if you're interested. The leveling contest is unnecessary but you stuck on making the comparison.
