I admit to attacking the implication of the thread title.  



It would be best if you stopped assuming implications, because you are attacking arguments that no one has made.


There are two types of responses in a thread, the type that responds to the topic of the thread, and the type that gets into an argument with another user.  You are assuming I got into an argument with a user, I didn't, I commented based on the thread.  In a way, my comments are more relevant than yours.  Allow me to clarify what the thread topic is

Side one:  White people should be allowed in a multiethnicity conversation.(The side that the whole thread took)

Side Two: White people should not be allowed in those conversations (implication, is that white people are the cause of all the multicultural problems in the world and should be excluded)

I attacked the implication of side two.  Is this english clear enough for you or is english not your first language?



That's the thing....that implication doesn't really exist. It was not implied. In fact, if you read the OP, he clearly stated he was hesitant to join the discussion because...

" . I don't even know if I should be allowed to be part of the discussion. I'm not oppressed in any way. I don't know what others are experiencing or seeing. I can't really contribute anything without compromising my own heritage which I happen to like."

He's hesitant because he doesn't know if he can contribute something meaningful. It has nothing to do with him being the same race of the people who caused oppression. So my point stands, no one has made the implication and you are assuming things where they don't exist.
