    “is this not direct enough”

    disclaiming a question with 20 paragraphs of fabrication and misattribution is not “direct enough”, no.

    “Let me try to find your reasoning.”

    sure, why not keep guessing instead of asking directly?

    working out well for you so far.

    “So I see…”

    you assume.

    “if simply asking if your view is xyz”

    you should try this!

    maybe without all the misleading disclaimers.

    good luck.

      Third time’s the charm?

      is your complaint that the existence of some racist Bugs Bunny episodes makes any usage of the Bugs Bunny character problematic?

        took you nine comments to get there, not three, but good work.

        “is your complaint…”

        nope, but that doesnt help.

          Hmm well your lack of any substantive answer leaves me no option but to guess again - it’s definitely your imperative if you want to be intentionally obtuse though. You shouldn’t be surprised when people don’t receive you well.

          If the racist bugs bunny episodes isn’t what makes Bugs Bunny as a whole problematic to use in a meme, then what is the reason in the first place to complain that Bugs Bunny is racist and shouldn’t be used? Again I go back to the fact that the only things you have mentioned is the fact that it’s racist and that it shouldn’t be used. I’m still looking for an answer to how exactly the two are connected, if you’d be so kind to enlighten me :)

            “no option but to guess again”

            you are incorrect again, you should just try asking.

            you got your first answer last time by asking a direct question.

            “shouldn’t be surprised”

            I’m definitely not surprised.

            “I go back to the fact that the only things you have mentioned is the fact that it’s racist and that it shouldn’t be used”

            not a fact, although not using a racist cartoon in favor of a not racist cartoon is certainly good reasoning.

            the full reasoning is explained above I think twice although I’m going check because it would be really - nope all the comments are still up there; for some reason you’re pretending not to see them.

              you should just try asking

              Do you not have eyes?

              you got your first answer last time by asking a direct question

              I asked that exact question 3 times, and it’s structurally identical to every other time I asked “so is xyz the problem that you have with using this cartoon?”, so either you just forgot to have a stick up your ass about how people ask questions or you’re just being difficult.

              for some reason you’re pretending not to see them.

              I literally quoted every time you said something about your thoughts on this issue, but you already handwaved that away with:

              sure, why not keep guessing instead of asking directly

              What do you want me to do? Look at your previous messages? I did and you accused me of guessing.

              Please, let me know whether I’ve missed a relevant comment that you made that clarifies this:

              the racism and subsequent cultural insensitivity is explained very clearly

bugs Bunny cartoons are historically, factually racist

it sounds like you do understand that cartoon is racist

that super racist cartoon

                “Do you not have eyes?”

                i do, I told you I just made sure the reasoning was still written out and publicly available, which it is.

                “structurally identical…”

                wow, your structures are identical with or without 20 disclaiming paragraphs of misattribution.

                no wonder you have such difficulty asking direct questions.

                “literally quoted every time you”

                you certainly haven’t.

                " and you accused me of guessing. "

                nobody “accused” you, you said “i have to guess”.

                and then you guessed.

                I pointed out that there is no point in guessing when you can ask direct questions.

                  you certainly haven’t

                  What comment did I miss that provides clarification on your reasoning behind some episodes being racist meaning that the cartoon is not appropriate? Your silence is deafening.

                    “your silence is deafening.”

                    I responded to every single comment, even your fabrications and extrapolations, correcting your mistakes every time.

                    I have no obligation to hold you by the hand here.

                    if you want an answer, stop whining about how difficult questions are to ask and stop fabricating things.

                    Respectfully and directly ask a question without misleading disclaimers or insults.

                    if you just want to keep insulting and attempting to mislead me and rewrite my comments, I’m happy to indefinitely correct you and play the game.
