So if white people mostly had bad experiences with black people and usually not with other white people, do you think it would be OK to say derogatory things about black people as a group? Merely based on the color of their skin?
~~I could put in the effort to write a while paragraph I response to this, but we're deep enough in this thread that nobody else is likely to ever see it, and I know you aren't smart enough to change your opinion on things when given good reason to. I'll just leave it at this: nobody in this comic or comments section is saying derogatory things about men as a group based solely on their sex~~
Oh what the hell, I'll write a proper response before I block you
If black people were almost universally taller, stronger, and faster than white people, and virtually every single white person had had experiences being threatened by a black person in a way that they'd never been threatened by another white person, and in a way that the vast majority of black people had never been threatened by a white person, and in a way that the vast majority of black people had never been threatened by another black person, then it would make sense for white people to exercise extra caution around black people that they'd never met. It still wouldn't be okay to say derogatory things about black people as a group merely based on the color of their skin.
It's a good thing nobody is making derogatory statements about men based solely on their sex here.
