re: #186 Decatur Deb

This joke has a clever rhetorical structure. It’s brilliantly self-validating in that only a non-white, non-male can safely point out that it’s sexist and racist. A minor quibble, from a pragmatic sense, is that it is intended to wall off a third of the electorate at the moment we Lib/Prog/Dems need every vote to save civilization.

Or am I being too sensitive?

A little. I thought of not posting, but realized that’s it’s a very true statement. I’m an old white man, and I’ve had my share of good and bad because of this, but I’ve had more good breaks that bad by a factor of 100. And the white guys who whine the most have had the most fortune in life. So here we are.
