That guy stepped his own doo doo

then tried to say it wasn’t his and that he never really stepped in doo doo at all. He then proceeded to take his poop covered sneakers and spread the foulness around as much as he could.

His cartoon was dumb anyway. He wasn’t cancelled, the public just quit caring about him.

You're missing one element.

He stepped in his own doo doo on purpose. What purpose that is, I have no clue, but that's his MO.

You’re giving Adams too much credit. He’s a hard core self promoter and he thinks he’s the smartest guy in the room. I’m sure he thought there was some 3D space chess move he was playing here.

anything Adams said. I subscribed to his YouTube channel a year or two ago, having no idea who he was. I still had not made the connection until thus incident. Something of his popped up on my Facebook I thought was interesting, next thing I knew, they were popping up every day. I tried to listen to a few of them, but never lasted more than a minute or two for the reasons you noted. It was mostly boring drivel to me, and either it all went way over my head, or he sucked. I thought he made a worthy, valid point with his take on the poll, however.

I'd like to understand more about the poll - questions asked, number of participants, etc. - before putting a lot of stock into it's findings. In a perfect world everyone would see everyone else equally, but if these results are based off of a small number of respondents then what does it really mean?

There is a link at the top of the poll to an article explaining it. It's not a long-term, in-depth study; it's just a poll. Polls when done properly use relatively small sample sizes to yield accurate results. There us no way to know how accurate this poll is, but if it's anywhere close to accurate, it's disturbing.

1.) It's Rasmussen.


Mar 1, 2023, 8:14 PM [ in reply to Re: I just think the poll results are far more significant than ]

2.) This is the first sentence from their article about the polling, "Despite years of progressive activism, a majority of Americans still don’t buy into the “woke” narrative that white people have a monopoly on racism."

3.) The questions were seemingly simple ones, "It’s OK to be white.” and “Black people can be racist, too.” But what does the "It's ok to be white" mean? Is it talking about just people who have white skin? Is it about white culture? What is white culture? What does "White" mean? What does "Ok" mean? Can someone hearing it put it into a context that may or may not be fair in connecting it to belief in systemic racism? Do respondents know the phrasing of "It's Okay to be white" is often used by white supremacist trolls on 4chan? Or could it be taken as "Yeah, I hate white people and think them all evil so, of course, I don't think they're "Ok"? It'd be like asking "Black Lives Matter?" It's a poorly written/defined question.

4.)The reason for the ambiguity and simplicity of the questions is the point of the poll. It's to offer a chance at confirmation bias which you'd think someone as smart as Scott Adams could see through but didn't (mainly because it confirmed his biases).

I don't understand.


Mar 1, 2023, 11:01 PM

What do you mean by "hopefully"? It's so confusing. And "help" in what way? How? Why? Is there a hidden motive? And "adjust"? I mean if we are talking about adjusting as in adapting, that's one thing, but if you mean like a chiropracter giving you an adjustment, that's something else entirely, and I have no idea and no way to know what you're talking about. I mean, how am I supposed to know if we are talking about the Boston Red Sox or ancient Chinese architecture? Your staement is so unclear.

He has nothing to apologize for. The only people who should apologize are the racists who either think it's not okay to be white, or aren't sure.
