      I’ve been told many times that hearing it from a white person is very unpleasant for many black people. Maybe it doesn’t bother you, but I kind of doubt you speak for a majority of black people, so I’ll keep trying to err on the side of not offending people. I know I don’t like being called a racial slur, even though all the ones for white people are very tame and lack any serious historical baggage.

            Not only am I black, I’ve a handful of degrees and a PhD, a couple of firearms, and lots of money I took from your retirement and donated to others like me with far less education. Neolibs are more afraid than MAGA.

              Yeah, I get it. You look down on me and presume to know my politics purely because I’m white. I, OTOH, look down on you because you’ve gone out of your way to be an asshole.
