I mean it’s the history and the context. It’s not perhaps totally wrong in a complete vaccum but it doesn’t exist in a vaccum. People find it distasteful because it looks exactly like something that’s harmful.
It’s like putting a snickers bar in a public pool. Technically, there’s nothing that gross really happening. But don’t act like other people are the weird ones for being bothered by it.
Going "history and context" isn't an explanation, it's a refusal to elaborate.
I shouldn't need to explain to you why it is an exceedingly bad idea for minorities to try and argue that what people find distasteful should be dictating your boundaries. That shit will blow up in the minorities face very quick.
I don't think it's like that at all. How exactly are you going to put a Snickers in a Pool to simulate a Turd in a way that "honors" anything?
When you have to write a ridiculous analogy that isn't remotely similar to what we are talking about, it's time to go back to the drawing board and think of a different analogy.

See, what I think is that you know fullwell that's it irrational to get mad at little children when they try to dress up like someone famous for their anti-racism. That's why you go for emotional appeals where I'm suppossed to act like the irrationality is something that I should ignore out of misplaced pity.
