- tal8d 6y agoThis looks like a familiar pattern, so familiar that there is a new vocabulary for it: "micro aggression". Has "manspreading" sufficiently killed that as a useful tool to the aggrieved? Also, if you are going to name all the ethnicities except one, that is going to be read as a pretty pointed statement itself. What up 907, Eskimo nation represent.
- motogpjimbo 6y agoBy listing every race other than whites as the victims of this "harassment and intimidation", are you making some kind of oblique argument about who might be committing these acts? If so, perhaps you should have the courage to make your claim openly and not hide it behind sly language. In any event, what do you think the breakdown of murders by race looks like? I'm genuinely interested in who you think is committing the most murders in the US and against which groups of victims.
- mywittyname 6y agoI'm merely referring to articles like this one [1]. The articles don't go into the race of the perpetrators, hence, I never bothered to call that out. I haven't seen one mentioning caucasians as a target for harassment due to COVID or "migrant caravans" in the USA, but if you find one, let me know.
