    I really, really, really hate the phrase “Oh sweet summer child”. Is it possible to be any more patronizing? Couldn’t you just say it normally?

      Not that I care about either of you guys or your argument, but I gotta point out that it’s a phrase intended to be insulting and condescending. You’re just letting the other guy know they got to you by writing this.

        Based, but I never denied that. I gave them the benefit of the doubt because I’ve unironically seen people saying stuff like this without realizing that it has a negative connotation.

          I guess the fact that you were more willing to believe that Black people have a natural inclination towards drug use than to understand that cops are bad leads me to the conclusion that you aren’t a great person with smart ideas, and didn’t see the necessity in being super nice about it when responding to you.

          I could have laid into you for the racist-leaning narrative, but instead I insinuated that you were naïve, so truthfully I did give you the benefit of a doubt in regard to the racially insensitive question you asked.

              I asked specifically because I knew there had to be a better explanation.

              You asked a racist question because you thought there was a non-racist answer? I kinda understand what you mean here, but those are some horrible optics that still involve you asking a racist question.

              Fuck me for wanting to learn from other people in a conversational manner and not researching like I was preparing for a debate

              No, just don’t ask questions with racist implications, such as suggesting that Black people are intrinsically more likely to use drugs.

              Fuck you!
