because he is white

Well, that, but mainly because of my account age being #3 on saidit. But m7 and d3rr only beat me by 40 days! heh Possibly #1 irl, but I'm just guessing.

Nah, I'm just kidding. It's totally because I'm White, but being tall, handsome, and articulate hasn't worked against me either. 😊

Jokes aside, you may note that the occasions when I've called subscribers to this sub a bunch of moronic scum have been pretty rare... If it's not my handsome White face and engaging personality, that might have something to do with your perception of a different reception.

But jew or not, one can't help but feel some affinity for a fellow misanthropist. Although I suspect it's the case for both of us that it's more about their low-budget OS and software, rather than their humanness itself.

Ran across this site while researching for the above comment. Not sure if hating the human race versus hating the human species is a valid distinction.

What is the difference between the Human Species and the Human Race? My guess is that the Human Race is us now and the Human species is us originally.

Misanthropist is a synonym of misanthrope.

As nouns the difference between misanthropist and misanthrope is that

misanthropist is a misanthrope; a person who hates all mankind; a person who hates the human species

while misanthrope is one who hates all mankind; one who hates the human race.

Maybe I'm dumb, but I'm failing to get the point of this semantic runaround.

Yeah, I don't get the difference :p
