Hey! What does 'scepticism is "a point of pride if intellectual rigor is found primarily in the anglo-saxon world"' mean, again?

Come on, don't leave us in suspense, thinking that the racist dumbshit said something racist AGAIN and then said we "just didn't understand", and then stopped commenting AGAIN.

I mean, that leaves us deciding that the ignorant racist fuckwit has once again said something fuckwitted and racist and ignorant and then, ONCE AGAIN, run screaming from addressing her racist ignorant fuckwittery. And you can't want *that* to be the impression you leave in your last ever comment here, can you?
