Entirely untrue. I read and shared the entire article. Of course there were racial tensions, hypersensitivity is being stoked to absurd levels and some people's reticular activating system are being misdirected to overreact to trivial things in the environment. It's becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy. Just ask Robert Lee at ESPN.
Bullshit. You left out the previous incident, which informed the reactions to the incident you posted about. That is pretty much the definition of stripping it of context. You didn't seek to understand why they responded as they did, you simply called them snowflakes and called it a day.
Lazy, sloppy thinking. Of course, because those slurs weren't directed at you, you have the luxury of being blasé. For all your philosophy, you're very weak in this thinking thing -- it's obvious to me that you're unable to see beyond your own precepts and try to understand something from another point of view.

Pretty sure he's making it plain in one little corner of the world here, especially when he doubles down after having the context restored and still he ignores it.
There's no excuse for ignorance once the correct information has been supplied. At that point, he is actively choosing to ignore how shit like "Harambe bait" on a noosed banana might affect someone whose race has been both slurred as "gorillas" and lynched out of hatred ... and at that point, he's drinking the hate whether he knows it or not.
I hope that religion of his gives him some morality before it's too fucking late -- but I'm not holding my breath.
