Munchies:
This is true. This did not need to escalate.
Then why escalate it? You're doing something then complaining said thing happened.
Munchies:
He could have said something along the lines of, "I wasn't trying to be racist. This scene comes from this movie. This is what was happening in the context of the movie. I was trying to make a joke based on this line from the movie.
Why do I need to say anything if it's subconsciously understood?
What racism did I commit which I need to atone for?
Munchies:
But I can understand why you might think that."
But I don't understand
Munchies:
mentioned my past trauma involving the KKK, he just ignored it.
Badtagragtat:
If whatever I say won't fix your trauma why say anything?
I wish whatever bad thing happened to you didn't happen but if I wish it that doesn't mean it's going to magically erase that bad event.
Why am I still pushing this? Because stuff like this isn't welcome here. Misogyny isn't welcome here. Racism isn't welcome here. Bigotry in general isn't welcome here. And if the community doesn't push against such things the moment that it happens, others will think it's welcome.
I've explained my thinking more than once. You simply refuse to see your actions as a problem.
So this is what's going to happen. I've already reported this thread to the admin team. They will lock the thread. And since you've proven to delete anything that makes you look bad, I will continue to quote and respond to you to preserve evidence. As such, your own words will be on display for all to see even if you delete everything on your end.
