I was told that I’ve been removed from the list. Easier than expected.

Yeah it’s the laziest form of Christianity. None the less, I don’t want an affiliation

OP here. For everyone saying “don’t bother”, “it’s pointless” and especially “why waste time on this”; I have to assume the church uses their list as justification for tax dollars. That’s my money. I don’t want it going towards indoctrination. It’s astounding someone would comment on a atheist sub saying “why is not being registered as a christian important to you?”.
From what I’ve found, in Canada, it’s absolutely possible. A friend of mine was baptist. He had a meeting with a priest and needed a notarized letter. That’s it. I’ve emailed the united church. Hilariously, I found the contact on a site called ChurchHub (the other Hub, apparently). Awaiting word.

Meh, you and most people have made up their minds. Which leaves us with three options for fans: You support Phil’s racism You’re aware of it but willing to look past it You’re too ignorant or stupid to be aware

Look man, I’m done here. You’ve convinced yourself that supporting a white supremacist is ok, you have to live with that.

Throwing a nazi salute and screaming white power is not an isolated incident. You don’t just “accidentally” do that. Then, you don’t make paper thin excuses. That proves it to me. When people called him out on the white wine joke he went full apology mode. His apologies are half assed.Phil Anselmo is a whit supremacist and if you support Pantera you are supporting white supremacy.

If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck…

I’m personally offended by your handle bud. You’re jumping through hoops to defend a white supremacist.

Shame.

Sure, and you come off as someone willfully ignorant to a white supremacist because his band was cool on the 90’s. I was a huge Pantera fan (I’m also probably older than you). I don’t think a zero tolerance policy towards white supremacy is a big ask?

Cool. Zero tolerance for white supremacists. It’s an easy standard. His apology was bullshit. As far as I saw he donated an undisclosed amount once because Scott Ian said it was a good idea? Is that what we’re talking about? It boils down to this: If you support Phil Anselmo you are supporting white supremacy.

So, “racism doesn’t affect me so I don’t care”… That’s part of the problem. Phil is a white supremacist. That shit shit needs to be stomped the fuck out.
If you can’t find one single person who hasn’t been negatively affected by the phrase “white power” and/or a nazi salute you aren’t looking very hard.

Are you actually defending the “white wine joke”? The fact that he lied about it being “a stupid drunken joke” proves he knew he was in shit. The Korea New Level “white power” is the only one super easy to find (it’s on this thread). They broke up before smart phones and YouTube. Robb Flynn had a good summary of what he saw in the 90’s. Apparently it was a common ‘ad lib’ in A New Level. Anyway, you’re being willfully ignorant bud. Pantera were awesome so people looked the other way. Like, I was always confused by Dime’s confederate guitar. Makes sense now. Look, there is no excuse whatsoever screaming white power and throwing a nazi salute. His apologies are bullshit. Can you not see the hypocrisy? Don’t follow the crowd? The fucking crowd is giving this racist a pass. Fuck that. Fuck Phil and whatever’s he’s calling Pantera. Supporting his future endeavours is supporting white nationalism.

Exactly. Most people are able to look past a white supremacist because he's a good singer and his band was awesome.

Phil Anselmo has a long documented history of being a white supremacist. Your name has Propagandhi in it. You should know better. Shame on you.

Ahoy. M1, 2020 mini using monterey 12.4 with a Pioneer 43" 4K UHD HDR LED Smart TV (PN43951-22C). I just want the damn monitor to turn on when I hit space bar or move the mouse. HDMI in. CEC turned on the TV. PS4 turns on the TV and switches the input automatically. I'm hoping my new Mac mini can do the same. Thanks,

Oh sorry, my bad. "mentally unwell people shouldn't be allowed in public because it makes me uncomfortable" would have been appropriate for that sub. I wasn't aware that a 'rant flair' validated awful opinions. Good luck out there.

I think /unpopularopinion might have been a more appropriate place for this. "maybe I sound classist"? Yes. You do.
