I must admit..in "real life" I run with people = advanced education & tenure... so I am not worried I might meet someone with your disposition.

I highly doubt that is true. I mean most advance people with education and tenure don't go around saying, "I run with people".

Keep it coming...

(smug face)....I saw this first = As if you know. Okay ...education = I'm an X..not just an ordinary X but an X with influence...Ponder that as you sit in the cheap seats and wonder what if.....(eye roll).

I will come back to your prior...

Nothing thinly veiled about it.

Yet, you're completely wrong. Go figure.

An x with influence

[Crashed~N2~Me 970]

Good grief, one, no it isn't. Two, even if it were so what? I don't think that's any of your concern either way quite frankly and three, you are the one who insults people by suggesting that the only place that a low income person can afford to shop to make ends meet is Walmart. How utterly patronizing and a totally blinkered point of view. Why do you make such an effort to protect Walmart's image? that is beyond bizarre.

...I don't have the quote but you posted something about "idiots"...? = insult.

I'm not defending Walmart...c'mon Cleo...you are smarter than this...How many years have I read your posts? Enough to know you are smarter....are you baiting me or is this a serious inquiry?

BOD = Capitalism is the topic with Walmart the test subject.

Grandiose delusions (GD) or delusions of grandeur is principally a subtype of delusional disorder that occurs in patients suffering from a wide range of mental illnesses, including two-thirds of patients in manic state of bipolar disorder, half of those with schizophrenia and a substantial portion of those with substance abuse disorders.^[1][2] GDs are characterized by fantastical beliefs that one is famous, omnipotent, wealthy, or otherwise very powerful. The delusions are generally fantastic and typically have a supernatural, science-fictional, or religious theme. There is a relative lack of research into GD, in comparison to persecutory delusions and auditory hallucinations. About 10% of healthy people experience grandiose thoughts but do not meet full criteria for a diagnosis of GD.

Do the people you run with condone your internet forum grandstanding?

Keep it coming little man

1) Really where did I deem my pov more relevant than anyone else? Can you quote that.

2) I don't understand what left handed racism is.

1) you present the old "flames" as hot today....I'm not sure if that is appropriate or not..but who cares.

2) you seek a different treatment = to your race.

Keep it coming little man

& yet...u r a reasonable kind of guy.....

I did, it's not a smart place to shop if you want value. That does not equate to calling poor people idiots. The people who shop are Walmart are the sort of people who clip coupons. They think they are saving money but that's just another marketing ploy. You may spend less if you are using a coupon on something that you want anyway, but most people buy products with coupons simply because they are cheap not because it is something they need or normally buy (that's not smart no matter what way you slice it) and the only way to save money is to put it in a savings plan.

Really? come on I would expect someone who runs with people with advanced education and tenure would come to a battle of wits; with a plethora of data to substantiate a bunch of nonsense.

What flames are you referring to? This was a discussion about Walmart. There was no discussion of race until you brought it up.

If you don't like me because of my race that's fine. Because your comment about people of my disposition is what you were referring to, since you clearly know nothing about me personally. You don't know where I work, what I do for a living, what my level of education is, etc. All you know is that I am a Black man and that's because I have previously shared that.

Your comments say more about you as a person than it does me - matter of fact I don't ever recall engaging in any discussions with you on this forum before. But if you have a problem with me, then I am sure your own personal problems with people of my disposition has a lot of history in real life.

Yeah I think i'm done with you. Have a blessed day fella

1) I never considered your race but obviously you do. Too bad so sad ...for you.

2) I present a rationale thought...beyond your myopic....I'm sorry you feel so very down & under the yoke.

3) Denial...gotcha.

You really hate it that much when someone criticizes wallmart? That's hilarious. BTW, I thought you were better than resorting to misogynistic insults, but clearly not.

I'm not sure it's family friendly either. I'll have to consult those that know...

Why don't you report it and see what the mods think? You can dish it out but you can't take it. Surprise, surprise. And you have the Brit sense of humor too. None.

[novedsac 355]

In some communities where Walmart has driven out all other competition people don't have a choice but to work there.

Being forced to work against one's will is illegal, isn't it?

It's a bunch of BS … they always have a choice … a different job? commute? move? perhaps not the choices they want, but that's life, get used to it.

Sorry, who started with the personal insults? Keep it going, it's so classy.

Not to mention, wherever there is a Walmart, there is a Home Depot, several restaurants, an auto parts, now they are adding an urgent care, and various other stores. So, saying Walmart is the only employer is an evil lie, and it always will be an evil lie.
