The Official Thrift / Discount Store Bragging Thread Part III (Sept 2018-)

[kbadgley84]

Maybe that's your perspective, and I applaud you for it, but I can say with absolute certainty that a lot of people see white privilege as something to be done away with, to lower the baseline.

I gotta Add tho i was Not a first time offender at this point and had a history of narcotics sales and was very well known in the area

Damn you know your watches man, it actually says cocktail on the band. It runs great, small crack in the crystal tho a men’s version would be badass

That's possibly a men's.
They're were very small even the men's sizes.
Gold plated movements too.
Cool watches

bro that’s the whole point—white kids Way more often get the benefit of the doubt, and, not to speak for kbad, but we want to see all people given the opportunity and the resources to live a good life.

What are you doing to address this issue, other than arguing with a guy who is doing something?

Making *Ad hominem* attacks on me and the attorney vs answering *this* question (which was just a distillation of his more politic approach) is part of— maybe even the essence of— the system you’re on a style website decrying.

But I’ll play ball, because I’m trying to educate you, as my little contribution this morning.

Im a guy who has devoted the last decade of his career to resolving social injustice through my professional endeavors, rather than taking jobs that would allow me to buy this sort of clothing firsthand and discard it without thinking. And that’s how I found your thread.

you seem to be the type of well-meaning but superficially introspective people who have consequently (and unwittingly) perpetuated the system you’re complaining about through your apathy, disguised as righteous dissatisfaction with your self-inflicted impotence.

but why don’t you tell me who you are instead— or better, why don’t you be the person you wish you were rather than attacking me and @Pyrrhomaniac ?

Anyone have a thrifted thesaurus I can borrow?

i just asked because i don't recognize you from the thread. that's all great, if you care to notice i didn't even comment on the issue posed by Pyrro or other people in the thread. i know for a fact you don't even know where i stand because i didn't share it. to me you're like a guy who overhears some friends on the porch arguing over politics and jumps over the fence to interject and give his unwanted two cents. there are a lot of sensitive topics that get brought up on this thread and people who want to jump in can, all while knowing there's a certain rapport among the regular posters and level of respect. you coming in here after things have already been settled and moved on just to stir the pot and word vomit all over with no context is just completely unnecessary. but please gtfo with your "you seem to be the type" comments because you don't really have any clue what is going on

while you're at it go jerk off again while looking at the mirror and patting yourself on the back for all the great things you're doing for the world that you feel the need to share with a bunch of randos on a thread about thrifting within a style forum
