You are wasting your time responding to HSFB Fan with mitigating facts or a different point of view. He sees the world through a different set of lenses than we do.

Nolebull813 Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 She's a racist piece of garbage and the NYT is complicit in her hatred. They love this type of stuff. The baseball players should be tossed as well. Thats the one positive thing about current technology. There is easier ways to expose people and them expose themselves. Anyone who makes pedophile jokes should have their front door kicked in and their house raided. People are sticking up for James Gun. That's just as scary. Cajun is a self exposed racist. You have to be careful what privileges and access to give garbage like this 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her tweets are over a period of years and are standalone, not responses to other internet trolls. I think she really is racist / bigoted / biased (whatever descriptor you see fit), yes I do. In my entire life living in NY and seeing other parts of the country and the world I have encountered a variety of bigots - comprised of all colors, ages, and sexes. In this case, her bigoted statements are easy to defend, because her targets are white. If that makes me naive in your eyes, so be it.

Upon further review, my initial responses may have been premature. I only know this story from this web site postings. First I've heard of this controversy. I also do know how ruthless and insulting us older white privileged individuals can cut and carve people up. I need a little more digging to make an informed opinion.

Regardless of race, gender, or age.

I'm not proud of some of the things I've said to you and others. But in the heat of the moment hurtful things can fly. There are some places I will never go, regardless of what A-hole I'm dealing with. Others have no filter. What did those brothers say to that young Asian girl ? I got a pretty good idea, and so do you. It was horrible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect her antagonizers were equally immature and hateful. The New York Times is a world class newspaper with a long and distinguished history. It's a privilege and honor to have the NYTimes byline above your name and article. She crossed racial lines she shouldn't have, and lost her cool.

America needs to get over itself where racism is concerned. When it does, this thread will have no meaning or purpose. In Jamaica we routinely called each other: White Boy, Black Boy, Coolie, Brown Boy, China, Syrian, Blacka, Reds, etc., etc. In most instances nothing was meant by it, as it was known we are a visual people who called out to each other based on your features: Thick Roy, Bigga, Fat Man, Slim, Maga Man, Taller, Short Man, etc., etc. It was only when the tone and context showed harmful intent that such names led to anger. And, then, it was settled one on one ... may the best man win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
