@Urimnak You’re not European.
100% that you are from India or Bangladesh and are brown.
Lolol you army of pocs don’t know how to respond and face me I say it because I am for real not actors like you I’m so candid I tell everything you the others don’t want and refused to know and read which make you very sangry and upset and offended that’s why lot of my comments are deleted cause they are so direct and honest.
I say the things the non-white like you aren’t able to think and notice so that’s another proof I am.
passingtime85,
Don’t take Urimnak seriously, he’s a troll. Anything he says can be discarded as nonsense.
To tell the truth, he may be from 4chan or a similar message/image board because they love to pick on people for their race/ethnicity and ethnocentrism is a big issue in general, but on 4chan times 100. The race obsession there is bizarre and I think that may be the source of Murican aka “urimnak”. He’s got a dozen counts on here by now.
*accounts, not counts
Yes, exactly. I have seen a lot of 4Chan-like trolls on here, might also be the same insane person with multiple acounts. Since this site has no moderation, seeing these kinds of people here is expected, best thing to do is ignoring, i suppose.
Follers please ban Jonas. He I right his ubnoxiousness has no moderation
Isnt’ nice when someone else hurt you, right? Hahaha. I write the simple truth in good manners and I don’t target and persecute nobody not a specific race like you like to do.
I’m a regular good user and I’m only in this site never been in others I don’t even know that one just only by its name which I discovered it randomly on other sites.
@l!ttletimmy I got you I hit you deeply yeah it’s so good and I like it so much I hit your ethnicity as I said you’re an Indiansh!t or a Spik or a Mohamed the usual three categories who love to harass, insult, provoke and throw up their inner burning natural immense anger and shocking racism against every person they meet on net and in person.
You sh!t from the third world countries are so annying and troublesome there is never a time you can be good but always and only mean.
You have this nonstopping need to hurt and sowing discord anytime and everywhere so get ready to receive the same treatment.
Learn to respect the people and the other races not to play your eternal game of the poor victims of racism because both of you and your bad folks are the first and the real naziracists and intolerant you always showing and proving it.
You get back what you give.
I am not racist or hurt. I’m simply annoyed with Jonas and his 70 IQ
…..I talk to the other two imbeciles above.
Jonas 100% is. I won’t disagree with you on that one.
It’s kind of weird that you complain about racial obsession when you’re on a site about ethnicities
Yes, I agree. But people shouldn’t be attacked over their ethnicity, that should be something to talk about in a positive light. Culture and ethnicity should be celebrated for the most part, at least the positive aspects of those.
Have you heard of cultural relativism?
And race =/= ethnicity
Mercury was the standard brown pooped pajeet before he became famous was very chocolate skinned and with big lips and with large nose was a sub-Negroid we can see in his pre-fame pictures.
To satisfy himself and to be accepted by the autistic Anglo fans he had undergone surgeries to reduce his features and to bleach his very dark natural color, after these still looked non-European lololol.
Understand non-Europeans? You can’t be us you don’t have out traits and you will be always sooo different from us, you always be Negroid! Hahaha!!
You’re not European.
I doubt he’s even a socially functioning human, honestly.
Hahaha!!!
