    Doubling down just makes it weirder. The author explained the racist stereotype to you. Why are you playing this “somehow” game, as if you didn’t see it?

      You act as if there’s some objective definition of what is and isn’t racist. There isn’t. That is the author’s subjective opinion, which I strongly disagree with.

      Why are you playing this “somehow” game, as if you didn’t see it?

      Why are you so unable to accept that I have a different valid opinion? I’ve explained what I think and why, and instead of addressing my thoughts and points you’re just saying ‘but the article says otherwise!’.

        You didn’t disagree with the author’s factual statements about racist stereotypes. (That would have been interesting.) You pretended the explanation didn’t exist.

          WHAT factual statements? All I’m seeing are opinions. Stop pointing at the author and article and type out your own points because it feels like I’m being low effort trolled here.

          You pretended the explanation didn’t exist.

          No I think it’s a dumb as shit take. Guess what, I’m the same race as the author so I think my opinion is just as perfectly valid (not that race should have mattered in the first fucking place).

              Go back to my first comment. You have addressed literally none of the points I’ve brought up, and I’m done with this discussion unless you have something to actually contribute to it.

                And you’ve addressed none of the author’s points, which renders your first comment unhelpful as anything except a personal attack. “Nuh-uh” isn’t a rebuttal, and neither are thinly veiled accusations of mental illness with a veneer of identity politics.
