It seems like the only way we can deal with our problems is to air them out passive-aggressively, because when we try and do the adult thing and address them to one another directly, the person on the receiving end feels attacked and responds like an angry bear, discouraging anyone from trying to speak to them again. It's just not healthy for any community, but now it's the cycle of our culture. I'm tired of trying to bury my bones and watching them come up through the soil. I'm tired of fighting over corpses and being the last dog to eat. I'm tired of the societal structures and the turf wars. We're just pack animals.

Actually, I want to go further and ask why you think/thought Vanilla's episode was based on her race? There was zero evidence to support that, except that she mentioned it was an Indian guy who handed her back her phone. But had she not mentioned he was Indian, you'd surely see no reason to tag this as a racist idea, so why is it that just because he happened to have a different skin colour you immediately jump to the conclusion that the incident was racist?

I really wonder about your thought processes. It's the same with the baby. How on earth could anyone link that to racism? It just defies belief. If the dad had said "eff off honky" or even "she doesn't like white people" then ok, but you seem to have made two simple incidents into possible racist ones, neither of which support your contention in any way, save that the first is a really, really basic assumption that is probably totally wrong. He probably handed Vanilla her phone because he thought she was hot... makes more sense than your interpretation does.

He did not offer to help her. I find that incredibly rude he would have the audacity to tell her she needs to watch where she was going.
If you are confused about my thought processes that is only a reflection of how perplexed I am about why others behave so strangely around me.
This all goes back way further TBH
Last month an Indian man glared at me like he was going to kill me. I glared back at him then dismissed it.
Later I recalled it unpleasantly to try to find out what the man's problem was. Somebody told me it was bc I look like an Indian princess and I was with a white man. So you see it's not really my thought processes...

Well since it is taking you quite awhile to figure out (dont feel bad - w an IQ of 130 i cant wrap my head around it either) i am going back to sleep.

She was fucking texting and walking of course she needs to pay attention to where she is going. Walking texters are the worst! She's lucky he even handed her back her phone.

Yeah I get that, that he was rude and ungentlemanly. Doesn't in any way support your theory that he didn't like whites. That was a conclusion you leaped to with not the slightest shred of evidence. Maybe he didn't like women. Maybe he was just a prick. Doesn't mean he was racist. It's nothing to do with IQ, thanks for that little slight on mine: it's purely impossible to follow a thought process that seems to work like this:

Woman falls down, man does not help, man is racist. Oh yeah, man was Indian.
I mean:

or what? Seriously, what do you base your accusation of racism on? You have nothing, except for the fact he was Indian and she is not (as far as you know). There's absolutely no basis for racism here at all. That's what has me confused and upset, that you could make such a totally baseless claim and don't seem willing a) to explain it or b) to retract it?

I have to admit, were it me I would certainly have rushed to help anyone up, but being a gentleman it would definitely make it more urgent if it was a girl, and being a dirtbag it would be moreso if it was a hot girl. No, she shouldn't have been walking and texting, but is she the only one in that city, even on that street who does it? And how do we know this guy doesn't also do it? A lot of people do: I don't, I stop and sit down or just wait till I have a chance to respond.

Definitely a prick not helping her up, no condoning that, other than he may have been concerned about a possible lawsuit if she was hurt (not saying Vanilla would do that, but he might have worried she could be the type to take advantage) but there's absolutely no way that could be construed as a racist incident, no more than could the other one CV spoke of.

I always used to text and walk when I was going to classes, I never ran into anyone/anything. We're not all that bad
