I’ve gone after the NAACP more than once when they’re over the line, but to call them racist or ‘professional race baiters’ is so far off the mark its ceases to be funny. It’s just sick.

BTW, ice, check out the love letter I left on the main thread for the haters.

Hearing what Mark Williams had to say I was reminded of this site.

Depends. Are people still shit-stirring there and concern trolling over how terribly wrong it is for people to get mad about it? because if so, I’m not interested.

i never saw that before! Bookmarked. Perfect!

Yet all of a sudden something happens to put a dampener on your sharing of your enviable intellect and incomparable capacity to fully perceive and understand All Things. It’s someone who belongs to the group of people you’re discussing and they’re Not Very Happy with you. Apparently, they claim, you’ve got it all wrong and they’re offended about that. They might be a person of colour, or a queer person. Maybe they’re a woman, or a person with disability. They could even be a trans person or a sex worker. The point is they’re trying to tell you they know better than you about their issues and you know that’s just plain wrong. How could you be wrong?

Don’t worry though! There IS something you can do to nip this potentially awkward and embarrassing situation in the bud. By simply derailing the conversation, dismissing their opinion as false and ridiculing their experience you can be sure that they continue to be marginalised and unheard and you can continue to look like the expert you know you really are, deep down inside!

Yeah, sounds about right.
