But can we talk about how public transport has gone to shit with black people acting like circus animals to the point that Japanese people are putting up posters like this?

i dont agree that it should be removed either way , but i genuinely did not read it as "inherently ", i read it as it was meant to be read which was that it refers to their behaviour
Sure, but is their behavior not a largely inherent trait? Or at least (without debating nature vs. nurture and genetics), the tweet is saying it is. It just says “black people and immigrants do X.” Not “when they behave badly,” not “at a disproportionate rate,” not “obnoxious black people and immigrants do.” Literally just “black people and immigrants.”
Now, I don’t have a problem with people saying that. I think it being removed for rule 16 id retarded because I largely think that rule 16 itself is retarded. But, I don’t think Dom is incorrect in saying that it does violate that rule even though I think he’s wrong for having that be a rule.
