What I said was that broad generalized statements are generally misleading at
the least and usually false. I supplied definitions of terms prejudice and
racist. And I said that if you say all people of Western European ancestry
are racist you are making a false statement and there is no basis to
communicate.
I made no inference to your intellect.

I know I'm supposed to defer, but my strategy is just to remember. No
lawsuit here, but people DO ask me my opinions of other people in the
permaculture community, especially as it pertains to social justice
lens. It's called 'digging your own hole'.

Darrel Frey (I think?) said of my comment about white people being
racist was something like &quot;what a load of bullcrap, what idiot thinks up
this stuff?&quot; erked me.
Academics working on anti-racism have thought it up by the way, which I
echo. I let it go. But Lawrence, that was okay? You probably have access
to exact wording. Or it might have been you that said it.

And when Christopher said &quot;self righteous self flagellating
masturbation&quot; that was too much for me. Crude, personal. But not for you
Lawrence?

I see Chris has a private email to me that I've only glanced at. But in
case you're thinking of dropping me from the list, how many insults are
we supposed to accept before saying that we'll remember?? I am not going
to recommend people travel to Belize to take his PDC if a student wants
to learn from a strong social justice lens. Jason, is that a threat? I
could have been more clear in exactly how the mayor lost his job, maybe
you were thinking I was threatening a smear campaign. No, nor is it
necessary. Lots of students want to learn from people who see
permaculture through a strong social justice lens. Just as lots of
people want to vote against a mayor who uses insults as a way of getting
things done.
