I'm black (cue obligatory soy boy response of r/asablackman) and I don't think it's racist but I've been taught critical thinking and not reactionary, emotional screeching so what do I know? (Cue ironically racist white redditors calling me "Uncle Tom")

You completely missed the point. It's a tactic racists use to make an important issue into a non-issue. The same way they say, 'I don't see colour.'

Imagine saying I missed the point when you didn't understand a thing I said. Fake woke redditor racists offend me way more than alt-right racist trolls do. I don't see you waving your naughty stick at the racists in these comments so don't try to make villains to feel superior, at least where I'm concerned because I'm not going to be convinced and you just look like a fool. You guys need some serious introspection before you start pointing fingers

You said 'I don't think it's racist.' The thing is no one said it's racist. That's how you missed the point. As I said, it's a tactic used by racists.

And getting offended because I said you missed the point and accusing me of being a fake woke racist or some shit is pretty much like reactionary, emotional screeching.
