Interesting question. Here are some possibilities:

It would be easily defended using the same standard Boston POC "electeds" used:

“It is not at all divisive, it is creating spaces for people and communities and identities with shared experiences to come together,” said Ruthzee Louijeune, a Boston city councilor at-large. “We are still breaking barriers and it is so important for us to carve out and create that space.”


Ruthzee: do you employ dishonest double standards, or not?

One mishap by some idiot in Boston isn't comparable to the thousands of years of abuse minorities throughout the world have experienced at the hands of their oppressors.

It's not a mishap. It's racism by democrats. Just like the anti-semitism by democrats. Stop trying to talk your way out of it. There is no rationalization for this.

Okay so it's somewhere between a mishap and racism. Still not a big deal. No one was hurt. I wasn't invited and could care less.

You’re not a member of the city council.

How do you know other people weren’t hurt by this obvious snub? How dare you assign feelings to other people.

Children are dying of starvation all of this world and you think I'm worried about some council member in Boston having their feelings hurt due to not being invited to a party? I'm not

Here’s the thing. No one cares what you think. Your opinion is completely irrelevant.

The taxpayers and city council memo of Boston do care.

Do you live in Boston? I don't and I don't care about their city council or any privileged nut jobs having their feelings hurted cause they weren't invited to a party. Do you know what children in Israel, Gaza, and Ukraine are going through right now? Get over it.

Uh, no, and while it's not nearly the same as other racism that POCs have gone through or what the GOP does every day, it's definitely not a good look. And suggesting we get over it is like suggesting POCs get over every "microaggression" or racist exclusionary act that someone has done to them, capeesh? You want DEI, then start acting like it.

The crazy thing is that they could have just pretended that it was never meant to be racially discriminatory. But for some reason they decided to explicitly disinvite people. It became not only racist but extremely rude. Standard etiquette is that if you accidently invite someone then you leave it be, pretend it was intentional, and accept the expanded guest list.

Yes, and crazier still: the mayor’s only apology consisted of “I am sorry you found out about my racially-exclusive, government-sponsored party.”

She really needs to resign.

Ok Karen. I'm sorry you weren't invited to the party because you are white. You are special, you are somebody, and you should have been invited.

Hahaha. You think that? Nope. Don't care about the party. I'm sorry if you're a little snowflake caught up in DEI concerns (which, by and large, are overseen by white progressives rather than, you know, diverse groups (the irony!) )and then, see an ostensibly progressive mayor and council turn around and do the opposite. It's exclusionary on the basis of race. I'm not special and would never profess to be. What I am though is asking for actual inclusion - you know, inviting people to party or doing something together because you like hanging out with them, not because they meet a proscribe racial profile. I clearly hit nerve though because you don't like having to answer for this kind of hypocrisy.

Not saying your wrong but it is this really, really all that big of a deal for non Bostonians that are not effected by their lousy mayor? I think you are all over this story because it's a circumstance where white people are being discriminated against. It just really isn't that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things.

You're right, it's not that big of deal. I'll also be sure to remind you of that next time there's a mildly discriminatory slight by someone who is not a POC to someone who is. Sometimes people are just clueless or boorish and it's not maliciously intended even if it's insensitive. Remember that next time you experience a microagression or some other non-inclusionary action that ostensibly violates the Harvard Wheel of Power and Control. Oh wait, that's not the way it works in power dynamics? If you're a persecuted minority (but of course, not Asian or Jewish or other minorities like that), you can never be in the wrong and can just get to dismiss such things out of hand if it's from your group? See the problem with here?

Actually I have. I am a minority. Just not one recognized by DEI. Others do have power over me. I also recognize that POCs can be racist and anti semitic and power dynamics don’t give them a free pass either from practicing what they preach.

Oh I definitely won't be the one pulling the race card every chance there may be a slight against a POC and I'd appreciate it if you didn't either. If you are pretending to be offended by Boston's idiotic mayor just to make a point, then you are doing the same thing that annoys you when it is the other way around.

Fire the entire party for racist exclusion not in line with DEI.

Interesting question. Here are some possibilities:

It would be easily defended using the same standard Boston POC "electeds" used:

“It is not at all divisive, it is creating spaces for people and communities and identities with shared experiences to come together,” said Ruthzee Louijeune, a Boston city councilor at-large. “We are still breaking barriers and it is so important for us to carve out and create that space.”


Ruthzee: do you employ dishonest double standards, or not?

One mishap by some idiot in Boston isn't comparable to the thousands of years of abuse minorities throughout the world have experienced at the hands of their oppressors.

It's not a mishap. It's racism by democrats. Just like the anti-semitism by democrats. Stop trying to talk your way out of it. There is no rationalization for this.

Okay so it's somewhere between a mishap and racism. Still not a big deal. No one was hurt. I wasn't invited and could care less.

You’re not a member of the city council.

How do you know other people weren’t hurt by this obvious snub? How dare you assign feelings to other people.

Children are dying of starvation all of this world and you think I'm worried about some council member in Boston having their feelings hurt due to not being invited to a party? I'm not

Here’s the thing. No one cares what you think. Your opinion is completely irrelevant.

The taxpayers and city council memo of Boston do care.

Do you live in Boston? I don't and I don't care about their city council or any privileged nut jobs having their feelings hurted cause they weren't invited to a party. Do you know what children in Israel, Gaza, and Ukraine are going through right now? Get over it.

Uh, no, and while it's not nearly the same as other racism that POCs have gone through or what the GOP does every day, it's definitely not a good look. And suggesting we get over it is like suggesting POCs get over every "microaggression" or racist exclusionary act that someone has done to them, capeesh? You want DEI, then start acting like it.

Ok Karen. I'm sorry you weren't invited to the party because you are white. You are special, you are somebody, and you should have been invited.

Hahaha. You think that? Nope. Don't care about the party. I'm sorry if you're a little snowflake caught up in DEI concerns (which, by and large, are overseen by white progressives rather than, you know, diverse groups (the irony!) )and then, see an ostensibly progressive mayor and council turn around and do the opposite. It's exclusionary on the basis of race. I'm not special and would never profess to be. What I am though is asking for actual inclusion - you know, inviting people to party or doing something together because you like hanging out with them, not because they meet a proscribe racial profile. I clearly hit nerve though because you don't like having to answer for this kind of hypocrisy.

interesting you never asked to be included during the previous white mayors. But you are suddenly offended when a non-white became the mayor.

Not saying your wrong but it is this really, really all that big of a deal for non Bostonians that are not effected by their lousy mayor? I think you are all over this story because it's a circumstance where white people are being discriminated against. It just really isn't that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things.

No, it is the absolute phoniness of the people who think like the mayor. That phoniness is on full display! "Good for me but not for thee."

Or you could say that the mayor thinks, "Rules for thee but not for me. "
