[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s hilarious to see people demonizing Goulet. Absolutely hilarious.

I can understand preferring one candidate over another. But the antics juts make you all look so silly. [/quote]

I guess if you are not offended by his racist and insensitive response to attracting more people of color to the Ward or his support of Mendelson's autocratic tendencies, then sure, hilarious.[/quote]
What he said was no different than what Cheh said and the people most offended were white. It’s all performative. And you calling him a racist as a result is a joke.

But the truth is that is not why you don’t like him. You don’t like him because he doesn’t proscribe to your politics. That’s all this is about and it’s terrible to degrade the term racist over what are petty politics. [/quote]

I guess you missed the outrage at what Cheh said. In fact, I would attribute it as a major contributing factor to her dropping out of the race.

And the issue wasn't what he said, per se, but the answer he gave was to a question about how to attract people of color to live in the Ward, and his response was about how most black people who live in the ward are on vouchers. It was a horrifying statement, except to his defenders. Go figure.[/quote]
I did not miss the contrived “outrage” at Cheh’d remarks and I find this “outrage” similarly contrived. A bunch of white folks calling each other racist is crazy irony in the now gentrified Chocolate City. [/quote]

Just because you think it is contrived doesn't mean it is contrived. You should be proud of your ignorance.[/quote]
