Probably not but whether this is bullying depends 100% on whether the kid feels bullied.

If it is some new guy who is really quiet and shy then calling him Nike might make him feel singled out and unwanted, and he may stop showing up.

If he seems chill about it then it's obviously not a problem.

>What a lot of people seem stubbornly unwilling to grasp is that “political correctness,” as a concept, is incredibly simple. It basically boils down to “don’t be an asshole.” Maintaining a basic level of respect, independent of your own personal views, is the type of base social lubricant that societies require to function. As soon as you privilege your beliefs over someone else’s lived experience, you are being offensive. When you rely on stereotypes, you are failing to see the other person as fully human.

The last paragraph applies to you too.

The ironic part of that article is that their liberal hypocrisy can be applied to themselves. They're stereotyping 60 million Americans and putting their own beliefs over someone else's experiences. The cognitive dissonance in this article is simply amazing.

>The great thing about being respectful of other people is that all it requires is keeping your opinions to yourself and treating the people with whom you are interacting in the manner they wish to be treated.

They can do that too. Why are they privileging their beliefs over my own?

Again, another egregious stereotype. Plenty of women, people of color, and LGBT people support him.

I have this on a playmat and I have not had a single person file a legitimate complaint. In case they do, I have the Reagan one, Clinton one, and for the most tried and true SJW, the Lincoln one. I've had a couple people scoff, make stupid faces, but otherwise ignore it.

It's just objective fact. Exit polling data is very clear that Trump did not win on the white vote alone. Hillary lost white male and female votes, while also losing some latino, a lot of asian, and a significant number of black votes. (Romney only won 1% of black votes in 2012, Trump won 9%.)

I have read the article (and I wish I hadn't). It is the same leftist drivel that has been spewing out for the past year. It is a gross mess of hypocrisy. It's virtue signalling for someone trying to disguise their "I don't like Trump" Spoiler: Read their other articles after the election or look at their twitter feeds they advertise under some sanctimonious garbage.

>Don't be an asshole
Who is the asshole, someone wearing a perfectly acceptable article of clothing?
Or the person impsoing their will and beliefs on him through the shame and intimidation tactics they are claiming to be fearful of?

>try to understand other people's feelings
Something the author of the article fails to do themselves. They have no desire to understand other people's feelings. They only want their own feelings understood, and for everyone else to agree with their viewpoint.

Now answer the question. Should I be allowed to ask you (or anyone else) to remove their Bernie 2016 clothing/playmats? If your objection to MAGA is on political grounds, then you must remove your Bernie/Obama/Hillary memorabilia as well.

If your objection is on grounds of it being "offensive" you need to explain why it is. Because if you retort with "no I don't I just think it is offensive", then maybe I find your anime playmat offensive charicatures of the Japanese. Maybe I find your illegally reproduced artwork offensive for commiting art theft. See where this is going?

You may as well just show up to Magic with a plain t-shirt, blue jeans, plain KMC sleeves, and a monocolor playmat. Lest some delicate flower gets "triggered".

>We'll start by killing net neutrality
Look at water, electricity, and other government-controlled commodities. The government taking over services spells the death for competition and improvement. NN is bad, especially when countries like (((Romania))) have better access to faster internet than Americans.

>lowering taxes for billionaires
I wish I was a billionaire in the "middle class". Thankfully, we don't need to tax anybody as much when we kick poor people off their free ride programs.

>gutting climate monitoring programs
America does not significantly contribute to "global warming". If global warming is caused by man (a debated issue; the "97% of climate scientists" figure has been debunked) major industrial powers like China and India, who will never submit to regulation, are the majority cause. America is figuratively pissing in an ocean of piss.

Meanwhile, green energy companies make billions on government subsidies producing "solar powered" buildings that will pay for themselves after 90 years. And we know the government never replaces buildings any earlier than that!

>paying for contracts to increase our nuclear arsenal
That to me sounds like making jobs and boosting the American economy. It is also a natural (and smart) approach when you have every other major world power announcing that they're increasing their nuclear arsenal.

>But that wall will get built
The wall has always been metaphorical. It is much easier to chant "BUILD THE WALL" at a rally than it is to chant "Increase border patrols, unmanned surveillance, electronic detection, and enforce immigration policies suspended by Obama executive orders" over and over.

>and that swamp will get drained

This is pretty funny mental gymnastics tho, gotta say. Trump promised a literal, physical wall which he also promised would be beautiful and payed for by mexico. He said that because at no point did he think he was really gonna be president, he just liked campaigning. Shit, he still did it after he won he likes it so fucking much.

>>50843500
Some areas benefit by a literal, physical wall. Other areas benefit more by electronic surveillance due to natural barriers (spoiler: most of the border is a rocky, treacherous shithole, hence why it is unpopulated.

Did you bother reading anything beyond the CNN headlines? He also laid out how the wall would be PAID for by Mexico, one example being a tax on international wire transactions, Because actual citizens just use their banking app now.

Obama's FCC was pushing hard for the internet to be regulated as a telecommunications device, in the same category as phones.

Landline phone technology was static, ultimately replaced by VOIP, and cellular technology is so regulated and America is so rural that the only selling point carriers need to make is on coverage. Even basic wifi routers have speeds faster than "4G", and that's bumpkin 5mbps internet that is outshined by fucking gypsy jews in Eastern Europe.

Govermnent controlled infrastructure spells stagnation at best, and damnation at worse. Ask how the people of Flint love their public water utilities. Or Californians love their power bills during brownout seasons.

-Funneling more tax money into the military industrial complex is good, yet taxes are bad and giving tax money to the poor is very bad.

Net Neutrality is good, "muh solar" (photovalics, that is) is a perfect example of separating fools from their money, and climate change can't really be helped until China and India either a) get their shit together or b) are conquered and annexed by a more responsible nation

It was nice seeing Hillary get her just desserts and Trump may actually end up being better for my country because he'll (hopefully) get us out of that retarded TPP agreement.

Here's the thing: Zach Jesse did nothing wrong, in terms of playing Magic.

Zach Jesse was targeted by a butthurt proplayer who was dreamcrushed. He doxxed Jesse, found out he was a sex offender, and decided to blast that all over social media. Wizards' reaction, while heavy-handed, was done from a position of liability, not from "safety". Children can and do attend events (and for some reason have privileged straight white fathers who netdeck them Affinity or Burn lists for $1000) and all it takes is one lawsuit and suddenly Standard is a dead format for a year, because all the R&D money went to paying off someone's lawsuit that Hasbro let a "sex offender" molest their kid in the bathroom. Hasbro's reputation as a children's company also likely has a strong role in this decision.

It was in Hasbro's interest to make sure they feel safe... from litigation.

>>50844040
>Islamophobia ran those people over

See the problem with your theory about treating brown people nice is that you assume that
1. The brown people love you back
2. The brown people assimilate to your culture
The endless amount of rapes in Sweden and Germany, combined with "NoGo" areas for europeans clearly shows that the refugees are refusing to assimilate and treat Europeans like trash. Islam does not teach love for infidels, like Christianity does.

In other words, the muslims will hate Europeans regardless of how much dick sucking you give them. They don't see all the donations you've given, they don't see how nice you are. They don't see how much you defended them online. They see an infidel.

>>50844040
But they don't. They flood a country, refuse to learn its language, isolate themselves in communities, and demand that the government allow them to enact Sharia law in these communities.

They literally don't belong. They don't assimilate. They create little enclaves.

Canadian here, our brown immigrants are pretty based. They assimilate well as far as I can tell. There is a schwarma shop on every street corner downtown and 100 cute little Syrian refugees just started going to a bilingual (french and english) primary school in my neighbourhood with hundreds of Canadian kids. I think "they don't assimilate!" is a moot point about immigration, people have been saying that shit about immigrant groups for ages but up here we have a happy cultural mosaic.

The real problem is the logistics of letting a billion of them in at once. It's just unrealistic when it gets to a certain scale.

>>50844116
Not same Anon, but I'd like to add that Muslims choose to kill people of their own free will. We're not forcing them to do jack shit.

lol, nope. They assimilated just fine here in America where we beat the shit out of them regularly. They don't assimilate in Sweden where weak cuckolds like you let them cut peoples' heads off without a word of protest and take the crosses off of churches to avoid offending them (fucking LOL)

A word of advice from the only functional "multicultural' society in the world: Tolerance is the enemy of assimilation. If you allow tons of foreigners into your country and let them build their little enclaves where they all live together, and then bend over backwards for all of their demands and cuck out to them, they won't assimilate, period. They rightly view your society as weak, timid, and homosexual. They rightly see you as a dying race with no religion, no values, and no future. They figure (correctly) that if they just retain their identity for a few generations you'll import in more of their cousins and eventually they'll outnumber you, and then they will simply vote the country into a theocracy, which most of them want.

And when they do, what do you think is the first thing getting thrown out the window? Or, off the roof, rather. You'd better bet it's faggots like you.

>>50844200

>A word of advice from the only functional "multicultural' society in the world: Tolerance is the enemy of assimilation.
This desu; the only thing you should be allowing immigrants to bring from their countries are food, fashion, festivity, music, and skills.
Literally only the most superficial elements of their culture, as well as what they can bring as an individual.

You know, it just occurred to me that this browns talk reminds me a lot of US politics.

On the one side, we have the Dems, who keep going 'hey guys we should try working together on things so the country works right'

Then you have the Republicans who have forgotten how to be decent people to the point that after losing the governor seat in NC, they rushed through a pile of bills to literally render the position meaningless. Didn't even try masking it either, just a naked power grab. And the democrats keep letting them do it and all the other shitty things they do.

>>50844335
So you get a gaming company, Hasbro, known for making children's toys, hosting a tournament using cards meant for ages as young as 8.

They have an application process to get registered with the DCI, and allowed a player with a known sexual history participate in a tournament with minors.

It's not hard for anyone to make the logical leap here. All it takes is some kid getting sexually harassed/assaulted by the big bad evil sex offender, and Hasbro would be staring down a lawsuit of "allowing a convicted sex offender access to children".

The examples in the "dumbest non-sequitur" stemmed from far less logical circumstances. It wouldn't take but an eager lawyer to launch a highly-publicized lawsuit against a children's toy company and hope for a six or seven-figure settlement.

So they told Zach "the Rapist" Jesse to fuck off and never come back.

>>50844382
>'hey guys we should try working together on things so the country works right'
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Oh fuck me, are you serious? In 2008, the Democrats got Obama into office. The first fucking thing they did was lock the Republicans out of the room and refuse to even talk to them. Obama famously said "we won!" in response to the complaints that he wasn't even attempting to reach across the aisle. They changed laws to remove the need for 10 point Congressional margins when appointing key cabinet members, made filibusters harder, gave the Executive branch more power, and generally centralized control under themselves.

Then the Midterms happened, and they lost a hundred seats. What followed was simple turnabout. The Democrats got their teeth pounded out at every turn for the following six years. They had cut the entire Republican Party out of the legislative process and been smug about it, expecting to retain their majority forever because they could simply import more voters from Mexico until they had a permanent majority. Unfortunately for them it didn't work out that way and the Republicans, vengeful as fuck, made them pay for it for half a decade.

And now, after eight years of nothing, the Republicans control every branch of the government--House, Senate, Executive, and soon Judicial--and now they have ALL of the extra powers that Obama gave himself, ALL of the ways to ignore the minority that the Democrats gave themselves, and are scheduled to take MORE of it in 2018 because Democrats never win midterms.

The Democrats aren't in a position to "let" anyone do anything, they tried to give themselves dictatorial powers and now they're paying for it.

Affirmative Action lawsuits still happen, so it's bound to get bumped to the SCOTUS. However, you won't hear another gay marriage case. I doubt that'll get overturned. Abortion stands a better chance of being flipped than Gay Marriage.

The important thing is the 2nd Amendment and the Heller decision in 2008 were under threat. The real litmus test is if that decision is further supported and gun rights aren't eroded.

>>50844498
This isn't about rights. This isn't about public life. This isn’t about Patrick Chapin, or Helene Bergeot, or anyone else you think has some kind of agenda to push. This is about the perception that a Magic the Gathering tournament is a safe place to be. Not reality, but the perception. Is your local game store clean and welcoming? Great! Was the Grand Prix your favorite tournament organizer put together well-run and a great environment for tolerance? Good job! But that’s not the perception of a Magic tournament and therein lies the reality of why things like hateful hats and playmats are NOT fair game.

No, they told him to come harass kids in 30 years when his suspension expires. Because apparently this totally-not-pandering-to-the-SJWs decision to avoid legal liability stops being a concern in the future? Just like how it doesn't apply to every single other Magic player with a conviction?

>>50844545
Trump doesn't seem to care much about the queers, and the Republicans in general are probably willing to let that one go because the public has more or less spoken on the issue. If they're smart they'll just appoint some people super obsessed with the 2nd amendment.

It's less the MAGA itself and more that the man behind it has this habit of saying shitty things, and wearing it is basically an implied admission that you are on some level a-ok with such charming messages as 'grab em by the pussy'

Or something like that anyway, I am not an expert on such things, but I have paid vague attention to assorted other nonexperts talking about stuff.

>>50844653
>>50844685
>butthurt leftist is mad about MAGA hats
The funny thing is, in most cities that are liberal, anti-discrimination laws prevent storeowners from kicking you out because of the way you dress. Policy has to be clearly stated, and applied broadly to anyone who fits that criteria. You can't have a policy that says "no Trump hats". It has to be "no political apparel" or "no hats whatsoever". And the minute they let in a Bernie or someone with an OBEY hat, they've discriminated against you.

>Is it fine if I show up straight after a KKK rally and didn't have time to change out of my dress?
It depends on the state and their discrimination laws. Many states have expanded "religious/creed" to include political beliefs. This is the consequence of regulation. Other countries, like New Zealand, list political and ethical beliefs as protected classes.

>>50844734
>Name one single exception.
Space exploration.
Long term scientific research.
Military.
Police.
Law.

>Aren't you Christian?
No, I'm an atheist.

>>50844742
>prohibit trade unions
Nope. They are fine as long as they aren't statist.

>>50844767
So you are personally associating the hat with a person, and then personally associating comments to represent the worldviews of people wearing said hat.

It's amazing how you don't see the problem with this. It would be like assuming all gay people are degenerates who parade down the street in leather with dildos, because they have a rainbow flag or pin.

>>50844783
If you're going to allow trade unions, go full tilt and let guilds come back.

>>50844780
>Many states have expanded "religious/creed" to include political beliefs. This is the consequence of regulation.
If that was true bakers wouldn't be forced to bake pro-gay marriage cakes.

>>50844783
Alright alright Friedman we get it, just keep the helicopters coming.

>>50844818
Guilds sound cooler anyways. Being a union member makes you sound like a faggot.

>>50840861
This, tbqh familia.

>>50844824
This just shows how ignorant you are on the topic.

Not baking a gay cake = discrimination against gays. Courts have ruled that you cannot use your personal beliefs to deny someone patronage based on their protected classes.

The voluntary decision is you being in business. Don't want to bake gay cakes? Don't want to sell pokemon cards to guys in MAGA hats? "Don't open a business" is the legal answer.

>>50844824
Was it even pro-gay, or just for a gay couple?

>>50844841
>Waste of money.
Son you best be joking right now.
>Only costly because of big govt IP law.
It's costly because any commercial benefits won't be seen for decades or more.
>What are mercenaries?

>What are private tribunals?
A regression in civilization.

>>50844841
Look, I hate the government as much as the next guy, but I'm not 100% on the claim that a privatized military would be more effective.

A large part of troops' effectiveness is their loyalty after all, and loyalty to the dollar is not the right kind.

>>50844875
>A large part of troops' effectiveness is their loyalty after all, and loyalty to the dollar is not the right kind.
You haven't been in the US Military and have no experience with them whatsoever.

The chief punishment for violations of the UCMJ is a reduction in pay. People are discharged for winning or inheriting large sums of money, because the military loses their method of instilling obedience over the servicemember.

>>50844867
>Not baking a gay cake = discrimination against gays. Courts have ruled that you cannot use your personal beliefs to deny someone patronage based on their protected classes.
See below.

>>50844871
>Was it even pro-gay, or just for a gay couple?
The former! It was a cake supporting gay marriage, where it isn't currently legal. It's a cake expressing a political view. Irrespective of the people ordering it.

>>50844898
Did not know that. That's funny as fuck.

>>50844811

I mean, if you can show that the rainbow flag was decided on solely by gimps, you might have a point.

tl;dr I don't like it

This is exactly the same buzzword "progressives" use, by the way.

>>50844914
If you can show Make America Great Again was decided on solely by racists, you might have a point.

Good luck, it was coined in the 80s

>>50844902
Again, you're failing reading comprehension.

A business cannot deny a customer.

A customer cannot be denied by a business.

Your example is only supporting my points.

>>50844930
>>A regression in civilization.
>tl;dr I don't like it
>This is exactly the same buzzword "progressives" use, by the way.

The problem with letting private entities run things like law enforcement is that 99% of them are going to be in it for the money, which is a terrible system for everyone who isn't rich enough to buy their way out of it.

>>50844949
>A business cannot deny a customer.
Serfdom then.

>>50844914
>>50844936
Yet the Confederate flag is being torn down.

>>50844913
Yep! The military is effectively a mercenary company, albeit with enforced contracts. That's really the only difference between public and private, the ability to enforce.

>Additional Duty
You're working more days for the same amount of pay, devaluing your $/hour.

>1-3 Month Reduction in Pay
Exactly what it says on the tin.

>Demotion
A permanent reduction on pay, as rank is tied to pay. Promotions = Raises.

>Imprisonment
You forfeit pay during your period of confinement. You're still in the military during this time.

>Discharge
Well... you're fired, lol.

>>50844930
It's not a buzzword, it's objective fact. What you propose is literally analogous to a regression through human developmental history, from the nation-state, to the city-state, to the "village", and even further to just the individual.

>>50844963
No. It's business law, and a contract made with the city. You voluntarily agreed to subject yourself to these laws. You could have remained an unlicensed business, operating on commission.

>>50844961
>is that 99% of them are going to be in it for the money
Just like 100% of current statist law enforcement officers!

>>50845026
>a contract made with the city

There is; you can simply not live in the state's territory. Tax is the rent you pay for being there.

>inb4 but everywhere is controlled by some state or nation!
That's not the problem of any one state or nation; they're under no obligation to provide your kind with something like a nature preserve where you can pursue a taxless existence.

Petty insults, the greatest weapon of the left. Protip, just because you're the one saying someone else isn't acting like an adult doesn't actually mean that they're not acting like an adult and that you somehow are. If anything the opposite is true.

>>50845831
And they build the wall on land they dont own to bully another ethnic group. The actual stopping power of the wall is limited as demonstrated by the continiously found tunnels. It has also further divided the isrealites and palestines closing down a lot of social interaction and this makes the two groups less likely to find a peaceful solution.

When you make a broad statement like "their wall is an atrocity" then there's not really any way to continue a discussion from there. You are giving nothing to the conversation, but expecting anyone who responds to you to figure out what your argument is (besides "I don't like [thing]") and then post their own rebuttal.

The vast majority of the "wall" is a fence or a series of fences that can be taken down without any sort of problem. If the "wall" was really the issue that prevented peace then it could be removed a lot easier than an attitude of antisemitism and terrorism that is really preventing peace.

>>50846189
Not seeing all humans as people, baseline the same and relatable is where you go wrong. It is where all extremists go wrong. If you dont see each otger as even human it becomes easy to hate and to hurt one another. Not seeing one another as human makes YOU the most monstorous.

>>50846291
My whole point is that the attitude is worsened by the wall. Now just removing it today might not be wise but wanting to export that kind of situation to the US certainly isnt either.

>>50846295
Why should I see those who don't deserve the title as people?
Personhood is a privilege, not a right. Calling me a monster won't change the fact that many, many "people" aren't worthy of being called that.

>If you dont see each otger as even human it becomes easy to hate and to hurt one another.
Exactly, I don't see them as people because my hate against them is justified for what they are. You're acting like hating someone is some horrible, irredeemable crime.
Hate is quite often justified.
And, to be fair, I do see them as human. Just not people.

>>50846329
"attitudes" are less important than results. I don't care if the wall will piss off Mexicans, because their attitudes and opinions don't matter on the issue.
