| "Nowadays" - meaning: "I'm sounding like an old fart". Not referring to any specific person. A generation, maybe... Jamaican: as in what I thought was Hamilton's birthplace. I was wrong. OK...so... a Nevisian Hurricane. Racist? Really? |

| Your post came across as a little racist. I don’t think it was intentional. But you’ve got a bias and it poked through. Or your phrasing lacked clarity in such a way it was misinterpreted. The thing about racism is that other people decide if what you did felt racist to them. Your intentions don’t matter because you’re likely not aware of your biases. It’s tough when this happens but it’s also a great opportunity to take the note and say “oops. It’s like when you have broccoli in your teeth. You can’t see it. And you wouldn’t cry “Hysterical!” if someone pointed it out. You’d say, “oh geez, thanks.” No one is saying you’re a bad person. I always like your posts and look forward to more of them. |

| Just a sidebar that's worth restating: the notion of systemic racism is that it is not intentional. It is nefarious because it does not express itself the way that red flags are raised when a racist demagogue does. | |

| In other words, Microagression 101, at very least. I would also surmise that Genealley went into watching the show already knowing/determining he wasn't going to like it. That's fairly predictable. |

| Love all these parsings of what I meant and didn't mean. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. |

| Does anyone MEAN to be racist? The most racist people almost always say they’re not racist. A cigar is a cigar indeed. | |

| Nobody is parsing what you meant. What you meant is not the point. | |
