[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Book deal lady seems like a first class beeyatch but I see nothing wrong with this - a uniformed metro employee breaking the law (or what we all thought the law was until yesterday.) This deserves to get called out and I do t see why race matters to anyone except the wapo reporter and all the faux woke people here.

This isn't the metro worker being rude (if that were a crime ain't enough jails in the world). This was small but criminal behavior by someone who KNOWS better. [/quote]

Because book lady was seen as punching down. It's a bad look for someone who styles herself as an ally to the underrepresented.

I don't understand why it's so hard for people to understand this. [/quote]

Because I don’t think that being an ally to the underrepresented means you intentionally look the other way when they are doing something that you think is wrong. [/quote]

+1.

But, Americans have gone crazy, especially with anything remotely related to skin color.[/quote]

That’s what happens when you do nothing for centuries about the evils of racism. Eventually the pendulum swings the other way.[/quote]
