    You just know that whenever anyone says, “I can’t be antisemitic/racist/etc because” they are are about to say some ignorant shit that counters the first half of the sentence.

          “I can’t be racist because, I hate absolutely every one, irrespective of caste/creed/religion/number and shape of genitals/color(also, color of genitals)/age/region/domain/kingdom/phylum/class/order/family/genus/species/base chemical composition/geometrical structure/level of consciousness/lifespan/definition of life, equally.”

          How about that.

        “because” is even worse than “but”. At least the guy saying “but” is acknowledging that the statements conflict and the same rule applies to everyone, even if they’re negating their first statement.

      I can’t be antisemitic/racist/etc because to save time, I only scroll through Bumble while I’m taking a shit. And they say romance is dead.
