If there is 'doubt', then you admit that you don't know the motivation, but that you draw one conclusion because it suits you.
Did someone hack your account? This is a pretty sweeping statement I'm not accustomed to from you.
This is you giving the benefit of the doubt when there is a solid reason to assume that due to all the relevant factors such as the age and color difference that racism is a cause.
No one knows the motivation outright, and we likely will never get it told to us, but we have a history of these things happening enough to make an assumption that isn't entirely off base. Not to be certain but enough to be the most likely case given what information we have.
Because you have even less reason to prove that assumption wrong than anyone does to prove it right, other than "I don't like to." Its just weak contrarianism (as always).
And no, I'm still here and my positions haven't changed over the years either.
This is me not drawing a conclusion without having the evidence for it. Like I said to someone else, I do think it's likely, but I don't want to be like they are and definitively claim racism when it could be any number of things.
Not really. I could have said "it is inappropriate to".
You're just more open about it?
Ah, the classic moral highground argument. Always a great one in making sure we never use the tactics proven to work while we wait for Karma to hand us a victory.
Which would change nothing about my point. That you have zero evidence against people assuming it and there is a decent enough amount for them to do so.
Or we've never had a conversation on this topic.
It only works when they do it.
I don't object to that though. Only to people who say that it is racism outright, like the media did with George Floyd based on 0 evidence.
