I mean, mistaking this for a professional news website is the only embarrassing thing happening here, but you do you.

Did you have anything of value to add or are you just here to try and distract from the actual issue?

so you admit that it's not any sort of legitimate news or discourse happening there.

As for your question, I'm not sure how to add to or debate such an idiotic string of statements. I disagree with everything the author said. I think just shouting "racist" at everything is idiotic, shallow, and anti-intellectual. It's just such a dishonest framing of the issue and of events that it's impossible to actually discuss the issue with this person and people who think like him. He isn't experiencing the same reality that sane people are.

I’m sorry you feel that way. I’d encourage you to listen to the voices of those who this sort of racism affects. They say this sucks, but I’m happy you’re comfortable around casual racism and barely masked dog whistles. Enjoy your privilege.

Also, no one but you claimed this was a professional or “legitimate” news source you dingus brain. In typical right-wing fashion, you created an issue to get bent out of shape and argue about that didn’t exist before you created it.

Yes, someone shared their thoughts in what appears to be a blog and then shared it here on Reddit to create a dialogue (and promote their blog, I’m sure). I’m sorry that string of events triggered you in this way. I hope you can pull through this difficult time. Sending healing vibes 🙌
