Only in Trump’s America Shiloh Hendricks has raised over $180,000 after a video of her allegedly hurling racist phrases at a five-year-old child went viral. You can watch the video on Instagram www.instagram.com/… but beware, it is infuriating. She...
If you call someone a racial slur, you’re attacking an entire race of people, not an individual. Why then would you be surprised that a ton of people get angry at you instead of just the individual you had an issue with? This is some kindergarten-level social competency my dude.
Everyone fucks up, but when you do, you’re supposed to apologize. If you’re so emotionally stunted that you can only “double down”, then you’re just digging your own grave. Society doesn’t need to accommodate immaturity/anger management issues like that, but it definitely should shun racism.

That’s weighted by the situation. If in the rest of it you were right and you are apologizing, you might cause harm.
That’s in abstract, not in this particular case.
This seems dangerously close to considering what crowd thinks to be right. I prefer a machine gun or at least to run away.
Anyway I’m not talking to society, it can go fuck itself.
Just did.
If there is valuable “social competency”, it’s in saying “no” despite any pressure and in holding your ground on your principles. Unless those principles dictate otherwise and exactly till that moment.
So maybe I can teach you.
