If you keep thinking you're hearing "dog whistles" everywhere, even among allies, you're going to slowly go bonkers.
I agree, my apologies. I was just finding the post ugly and absurd, and I was flippant with my sarcasm, so I commented while I was walking without much thought.
But I agree with you. These are times to be clear and direct about being an ally. It's reasonable and justified to be suspicious when the stakes are high and the world seems dark.
I still don't get it. How is it a joke?
What? Race is a social construct that has very little to do with biology. If that's the joke, it shows lack of education at best.
