I've stated my case in the very comment you actually started replying to me from.

I don't recall defending "Demonic pigskin". I defended "I will not be a slave".

There appears to be plenty of emotional reactions to all sorts of arguments here.

If there was a similar argument on the "other side" that convinced me, it would be an argument on my side. I reject your attempts to shoehorn me as a leftwinger, whose arguments must be scrutinized for sincerity if they happen to oppose rightwinger arguments.
If you think there's no discussion with me because I'm partisan then there is no discussion to be had. If you have specific evidence of my partisanship then you can list that.
Is a particular black man responsible for a proportion of other black men victimizing someone or having gotten preferential treatment, that he should not argue for the bottom line of not being made into a second class citizen because of what the others did?
I think you're making the argument that currently, the powers that be are overly protective of the bad blacks in the way that they are not of bad whites. I agree with that assessment.

Is it morally unreasonable for a group to assert that they will not be second class citizens?

I do not care to project my position on every issue ever ahead of time to prove to you I'm not a committed partisan or something. You can check my post history if you're really curious and go with that.

You say all that as if "not being disenfranchised, particularly within the country they're very much not first-generation immigrants in" is an interest that's so uncommon and morally unreasonable for a group to hold that it can only be viewed with amused dispassion. "Look how politically effective their strategy is, asserting that they won't be second class!".
Again, most of those complaints sound like America just doesn't know how to build apartments. How come my country can build apartment blocks that don't shadow each other, and have soundproofing, and aren't dystopian pods 1 step across that you see in movies about South Korea or China, and can be afforded not just to rent, but to buy for many of the middle class?
One thing I'll give you is size of houses compared to apartments, but then again at some point I just don't see the value of having more space other than getting off on 'Murican gregariousness of life... and that point falls flat when in the same paragraph you're complaining that you can't afford a house. You got a family of 10 kids? Then sure, it makes sense to have a big house. How many families have 10 kids again?
I suspect most people live in apartments for part of their lives, and learn to hate them there.
I could possibly count on one hand the number of times where I've experienced something that could be fixed by having my own house in the 'burbs. Many things would be made worse. I'd need to drive to buy groceries, or to go to the gym, or do mostly anything that is done outside my own home. There'd be more shit to maintain. You can still have bad neighbors.

You should say what you believe in about yourself. This is, as far as I see, allowed and encouraged on this forum. "I will not be a slave" was not the bannable offense, "you cracker bitch" was.
There are many people here who I not only disagree with but find their propositions for what the world should be abominable and ridiculous. For some of them, I still hold the minimum of respect, and that is because they do not descend to shit-flinging. This is despite their projects being, in my view, more hopeless than yours.
It is not within your power to stop people from noticing that group IQ differences exist, and some of them will irrationally extrapolate them on all members of your group, in all aspects of life. Those people you can't change. Fortunately, what I see is that such people who zealously believe in IQ graphs and ignore anything in front of their eyes are in the minority.
What you can change is change how you act, and those whose view of black people is informed not just by IQ curve graphs, but also by their observations of how black people act, will see that you do not act as a racist would predict you do.
No, you don't have to plead that you're one of the good ones. You want to actually be one of the good ones. It's unfair that you might have to try harder compared to whites, but it's life. What appears to hurt black-white relations a lot in my observation is when you start seeing "being one of the good ones" as some kind of a shameful thing, a performance you must put on for the snobby whites, you start taking pride in doing the opposite of putting up appearances for the whitey, and then all of you appear worse than average.

Many such clauses.
and that all spirals down to simply assuming he isn't there.
If you don’t, then why do you expect God to?
Most prominent monotheistic religions say He is infinitely better than us, in all aspects which would include caring for lesser things.
If he isn't, one might suspect he isn't perfect in general, and that all spirals down to simply assuming he isn't there.

small
Get a bigger apartment.
dark
Try windows and/or electrical lights, as well as building apartment blocks that are naturally lit.
cramped
Get a bigger apartment.
noisy
Build apartment blocks where walls aren't made of cardboard, and/or police noise.
enter and leave by passing by multiple other neighbors
As mentioned by someone else, hating to see neighbors was historically not terribly common. If it's the quality of neighbors that's your concern, that's the problem of loose policing and selection effects cramming all the bad neighbors (correlating with poor) into cheap apartments because the cheap apartments and the ultra-expensive ones are the only ones that exist.
I must agree with the poster above, the American apartment hate is entirely a unique cultural thing, probably born of the abundance of land. Well, it doesn't seem that desirable land is abundant now, judging from all the complaints about lack of affordable housing.

This is pretty much entirely not what you claimed I said.

You are arguing that we should ban FGM even in cases where both the girl and her guardians want it and the operation is objectively less harmful than circumcision.
Where exactly?
Why, yes, women do nakedly advocate in favor of women and also entice men into advocating for women.
And when men such as you, in situations such as these, can't muster any straightforward advocacy in favor of men in a place where advocacy for men is damn near encouraged, instead tying themselves in knots about how it's so unfair that women get what they ask for while men don't get what they don't, you should know you are the traffic.
Just say you want men to keep foreskins if you think so. Such an argument doesn't have to refer to gender equality of foreskin-removing bans. It can, but you didn't even make that argument.
If not, explain why should anyone want to stop women from keeping theirs if they want. Foreskins are not zero sum, unlike some things that someone must do and so men do them. Communism was a shit system that didn't work and foreskin communism has no substance either.

What are the common sense social media controls you're thinking of, exactly?
As far as I can guess at teen mindsets, having a dumb phone that is not designed to have apps in 2026 is exactly the kind of thing that would make a kid the weird kid in class.

And of course, if men really were these dangerous, secretly malevolent actors who were obscuring their true beliefs, **how in the hell do you feel comfortable constantly antagonizing this group.
The same way Jews are both running the world and are about to be wiped out any second if only USA stops helping.

They don't all have to compete for the top fuckboys. And seeing as we appear to have established that actually attracting the attention of the fuckboys then getting used in a situationship is bad for them, it should be a relief to quit the attention whoring race and get herself someone more her speed.

They are treated worse, by men they choose. Yet it's a choice. I reject the idea that women as a sex are so stupid they can't help themselves, or that the hookup market is a force that acts upon them with no recourse.
Maybe in the 90s the memeplex around dating was "go grrrl", but today there's plenty of wisdom in the air that men [that they notice first] are not out for the women's best interest. One needs but listen and learn.

Professional seduction is definitely more than today's girls are trained in. You have to come on harder than a regular expression of female interest, because you actually want that particular man to respond rather than wait for the most bold one. But also if you make it look too good to be true, you'll make him suspicious.

Less of a vibe than many other legal Schelling points, as discussed in this branch w.r.t. age of majority/consent. You can actually tell when a baby is connected to the mother, versus when it's not.

The value of hard work is pretty much common sense.
The value of hard work is that it allows the less capable to attain, by rote, some of the diligence and understanding that comes naturally to the more capable. It is a virtue when it allows one to be useful rather than not. When selected for in highly competitive spheres that ought to require talent and creativity, it burns billions of man-hours on rat racing against each other and accomplishing little other than letting employers demand higher credentials for the same level of actual competence.

I find birth to be a natural and fitting Schelling point for when one's life becomes the business of society.
Prejudice is when you judge someone before they actually do something. Postjudice is when you do it after they do something.
