      Nope. Now think about this, I make a comment “wow! Lots of black names on this weeks court docket!” Sounds kinda racist eh’? That’s why I dont say such ignorant shit.

        “Enlightened” centrist doesn’t understand the difference between punching up and punching down, more at 11.

        Yeah, pretty sure the racist part is that you correlated black names with court dockets as a made up example. A school roster or something would have been a neutral example. You may just have some personal struggles in this area. Not saying things is a very good way to avoid sounding racist but not a good way to confront our personal biases. <3

          Yup. That does sound racist. Mentioning black names and a court docket together in an example leads me to think inherent bias exists in the commenter.
