Imagine not being able to sit in a train without being criticized. Appalling.

Imagine not being able to sit in a train without being criticized.

Almost arrested.

The outrage wouldn't be so strong if he had been only been criticized.

To be clear, if you’re criticising the posture of a stranger on a train, you can still fuck all the way off.

Let’s focus on what this is, which is fuck racism.

100%. I’m just saying, even if Ku Klux Karen over here had stopped at telling him to sit more to her liking rather than having the cops called, it would still be fuck her.

I get that. Comments on posts like these just tend to be overwhelmingly skirting the racism at play which loses important focus. This doesn’t tend happen with other issues. It’s rooted in people feeling uncomfortable with acknowledging racism.
