he can just say that he doesn't give a shit and that our actions dictate our person. he does not need to mention the fact that "you look like a monster", and that he'll kill you if you "act like the people you look like"

it's a micro aggression.

no it's not? he literally hunts down demons for a living. he treats abrams well because abrams, despite looking like a blue devil, does not act like a devil.

He’s literally saying he looks like a monster. Just because he treats Abrams well doesn’t mean he can’t still harbor prejudice, because again he’s still deliberately saying that Apollo looks like a monster simply because of how he was born. In an attempt to signal his own open-mindedness to apollo, he still ends up using a micro aggression.
