    You know how you can tell if someone’s a racist? They’re the first to bring race into the equation, and they’re the most insistent that no other explanation is even possible.

      Ah yes because desiring to know the race of the victim in order to compare two situations, and demonstrate the inequality of treatment based on race makes me racist.

        No. Actually, it’s the fact that you care only about that particular piece of information and nothing else.

          “A Black person will never say ‘I don’t see colour’ because our race and culture are not the centre of the universe,” explains Shereen Daniels, author of The Anti-Racist Organization: Dismantling Systemic Racism in the Workplace. “We do not have that privilege.”

            As I said before… definitely racist.

            “My race requires of me that I judge everyone else by their race.”

            Come on now. That’s BS and you know it.

              Feel free to believe whatever you’d like but don’t project your beliefs on me.

                Bold of you to ask for mercy with a username like that.

                  I suggest you try reading my comment again if you believe I’m asking for any mercy.

                  Plus resorting to ad hominem usually means you have nothing further to add to the conversation.

                    Not an ad hominem to call you by the name YOU chose for yourself.

                    And asking a favor of anyone is ALWAYS asking for mercy, whether you realize it or not. Neither of us deserves anything in life, especially not mercy. The sooner you realize this the better your life becomes.

      You know how you can tell someone’s a racist? They’re terrified of it ever coming up in conversation.
