This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

By saying intra instead of inter, you're suggesting it's within the races, instead of between (different) races. I choose to believe this was intentional and witty
I used Intra correctly.
I know, I was literally saying you used it correctly. At the time of my comment you had several downvotes, I assume because people misunderstood what you were saying, which is why I added my comment for clarity.
Thanks for explaining. It's amazing how much up and downvotes can change the context of a comment. When I saw this, I had upvotes and you had downvotes. Seems to be just a misunderstanding.
Agreed
That's how language works. Congratulations?
It aligns with the context and their post history suggests they know how to use words. There is nothing bad with explaining rhetorics, but doing it like this comes through as belittling.
At the time of my comment, they had several downvotes. I posted my comment for clarity because it seemed like people misunderstood OPs comment
Meh, it stopped me from having to google something i already knew just to confirm it. Looks fine to me
Your point is...?
Given that the races aren't homogenously mixed, there is no way that it wouldn't be true that most violence is intra rather than inter just by sheer proximity. These are just the correct words to use.
