    Someone correctly indicating that mixed race children have lower standards of living in racist countries such as the United States is not someone who should be shunned

      As someone else in this thread already pointed out, you are conveniently ignoring the OP’s assertion that the “friend” had themselves become a racist, and later STALKED OP. I can’t believe it has to be explained that stalkers shouldn’t be defended.

      Let’s say hypothetically OP was in the wrong, and totally misread the entire situation. They cut someone out of their life who didn’t deserve it. That’s STILL their fucking prerogative. They don’t deserve to be stalked for it.

      Also you’re siding with somebody who has since recognized they were in the wrong. Read their later replies.

        I really don’t think OP is a credible source, and I don’t find their account to be remotely believable.

        My point is that, as a work of creative fiction, not only is their post unbelievable, it’s also internally inconsistent

          And you take that as an invitation to do this shit?

          Your opinion has been weighed on the scales of this public forum and has been found wanting.

          You can go whenever.

            To do what shit, precisely?

            Also, if you communicate like this in person then I doubt you have loved ones or friends. Perhaps you should work on that rather than defending racism and believing lies online

              Actually my friends and loved ones display basic human empathy. They don’t berate strangers over the authenticity of their trauma. So I do afford them quite a bit more couth than I feel you’ve earned in this interaction.

              I hope that isn’t projection on your part, by the way. At this point I mostly just feel bad for you.

                If someone correctly stating that mixed race children have worse outcomes in the United States than white children causes “trauma” in anyone, then that person is too mentally weak to be left unsupervised. Let alone vote.

                You can’t just throw the word trauma around, especially when it’s describing an event that didn’t actually happen. Pop psychology is the domain of midwits and advertisers, not thinking people

                  You are all over the fucken place, now the person who told that story shouldn’t be allowed to vote?

                  Pseudo-intellectualism probably plays better in the crowds you roll with than it does here.

                  It’s a good goddamn thing you just think you’re a psychologist.

                    Stop being autistic and hysterical. Take your meds. Go for a hike. Lose some weight.
