RE: PSA: Hate Speech
I wouldn’t even say it’s understandable, but I would say I don’t feel bad for the racist jerk who got beat up

You could be right. Growing up I was always told that southerners were racists (among other things). Maybe I was too sheltered to see that it wasn’t just southerners.

This year I've been brought up short realizing that my city, Minneapolis, has one of the worst records of racial disparity in the nation, and Minnesota has a long history of racial disparity.

Living in Indiana I learned that racism isn't area specific. The y-donor was a Kluxxer.

Interesting enough, the "N" word is fine over there.

Making an innocent joke about a thread title, isn't.

Go figure.

My post was removed.

You see the menstrual cycle thread?

I said something like, "The thread title makes me think of a dyed cycle on a washing machine." The original response I made was funnier, but I can't remember it.

Yeah, that seemed to be offensive.

Yea I just saw that 😂
It wasn’t technically removed, just split into a new thread and placed in the sewer.
That’s hilarious

The person who removed it provided the original line:
"The title makes me think of a washing machine setting for dying clothing."

But where did you see it in the sewer section? Where is that?

Well, I had to do this:

It's totally understandable, it's not like you can refer to the actions in the video as senseless violence.   I don't think anyone is confused about the derogatory use of the N-words possibility of resulting in violence.

I'd fully expect to get my ass kicked eventually if I ran around saying such things.
