kamau is not calling anyone a name, they are correctly categorizing the parent post. The parent post is typical of the type of post that is written by racists.

kamau is not calling anyone a name, they are correctly categorizing the parent post. The parent post is typical of the type of post that is written by racists. That is not name calling, that is the act of categorizing. If you give me a box full of cats and squid, and I pull out a creature that only has 4 legs, and I say "Typical cat" I'm not insulting the cat, I'm simply correctly separating it from the squid.
- flukus 10y agoSo if an argument is used by racists everyone else that uses it is racist, no matter how sound the argument is? | If you give me a box full of cats and squid, and I pull out a creature that only has 4 legs, and I say "Typical cat" I'm not insulting the cat, I'm simply correctly separating it from the squid. Now try it by changing squid to white and cat to black and see if you still think it's a good argument.
