why are you asking loaded questions?
- jessaustin 6y agoJust trying to help! How do you know what you think you know about people you've never met?
- yters 6y agoi would ask you the same thing you have never met me, but seem to know a whole lot about what i do and do not know how did you get this information about me, and how do you know it is true? or are you just making a bunch of baseless assumptions?
- jessaustin 6y agoEveryone in this thread knows you live closer to Minneapolis than to Ürümqi. You started the thread by discounting the difficulties of black people in USA. You wanted someone to give you some "facts" to "support" the claim that racism is a problem. All of us made the same assumption based on that evidence. We don't need to imagine anything else.
- Minor49er 6y agoI, for one, have no idea where yters lives
- yters 6y agohow would you characterize your efforts to understand what i am saying and communicate in a clear and unbiased manner?
- jessaustin 6y agoI've made no particular efforts in that vein; you are an open book. In reply to this observation you'll whinge on about how mysterious and unique and totally-not-racist you really are, but will offer no discernible arguments in favor of that proposition. It's really an HN trope by this point: say something totally privileged and douchey, and then insist that you may only be criticized by perfect and omniscient beings when other people call you on it. You're not the first person to do it; you won't be the last.
- yters 6y agoit seems you believe i am racist. how did you arrive at that conclusion? or do you assume people who disagree with you are racist?
