My point is that we don't know for sure what went on in his head and in his heart that day, and there is no evidence we've seen of any prior racist behavior, yet everyone is jumping to the conclusion that he must absolutely be a POS racist asshole. I've said multiple times that maybe he is, but it doesn't seem like it to me. I've also said that I understand the decision to fire him in this political climate even if I disagree with it personally.

    I did say I think he should have his job back and that we should accept his apology at face value; I suppose that counts as defending him, but I'm hardly the only person in that boat (plenty of famous names and other progressives are there alongside me). And to be frank my point of view on that issue matters a lot less than the point of view of someone who is a person of color; the injured party is the one I would respect most in this scenario. But I can recognize that and still express my thoughts on the matter.

    You know I'm black right?

    Oh I see more pages of complete asshattery as expected.

    Black Labs Matter

    Megan Taylor was on the bus in St Helens, Merseyside, with labrador Rowley when the woman heckled her and claimed he was not a real guide dog due to his colour.

    When Ms Taylor tried to explain it helped with her disability, she claims the woman called her a liar because 'guide dogs are yellow labradors and your dog is black'.

    The smarter thing to do is roll with it, you get nothing by attempting this look.

    You're not wrong, but are you saying it's wrong to be intolerant of intolerance?

    I was just reading an article about the woman in a vegetative state who was raped in the nursing home. It had some statistics in it that were disturbing. It said women with disabilities are sexually assaulted at 3-4 times the rate that able bodies women are. They are exceedingly more likely to face other forms of harassment too. Fucked up.

    The more different the person is from what is considered the norm or what is right, the more discrimination or problems a person faces and the easier the rest of the people in the norm group ignore or excuse that discriminatory behavior.

    But it's individual person to person discrimination, not like the systemic campaign to marginal straight white men. That's the real discrimination.

    To be fair it does appear black to her, how could she have known?

    I'm sure there are plenty of guys that will help him be gay for that month. I think some... relaxation... at a bath house could be really educational. Know what I'm sayin'
