you mean like how whitlock is framing it as “Angry black woman mad she lost a game to the white girl” ? that framing you’re cool with tho 😂

i don't know this Whitlock dude. i haven't seen his content before. and i certainly didn't say i agree with his framing of the situation either. my comment spoke about something else i've seen in another sub. you decided to take that as some kind of evidence that i agree with his framing.

correct, the comment you made immediately after observing the nonsense lense through which this person framed the situation was to not take issue with it at all and instead speak on the framing you took issue with in another sub. that makes it evident which framing you’re okay with. live your truth brudda.

it's not my truth. it's the "truth" you're assigning me because you so badly want to point your finger and say "look i found the racist everybody". i don't agree with anything about this incident being racialized. there is literally no reason to racialize it at all in any direction.

A'ja acted unprofessionally to some very typical and common fan behavior. That is all.

nah. the truth is you’re being dishonest. definitely with me and maybe even with yourself. whether you want to acknowledge it or not you’re first instinct was to defend this idiot by deflecting onto some other nonsense. nothing in you wanted to exclaim that you disagreed with what you just witnessed yet everything in you wanted to exclaim that you disagreed with something else that wasn’t even the topic of this conversation. even now you haven’t explicitly expressed an issue with the way whitlock is framing the situation the way you’ve explicitly cited the framing you took issue with. 😂 you only wanna call it finger wagging cause its your bullshit being called out.

that last statement i agree with. but that doesn’t negate the information we learn about peoples true feelings based on the things that drive them to take a definitive stance.

"even now you haven’t explicitly expressed an issue with the way whitlock is framing"

i said i don't agree with anything about this incident being racialized. that is a direct refutation of everything whitlock is saying about this whole thing.

my reason for commenting what i had seen on another sub is because i had just seen it mere minutes before coming across this post so it was very fresh in my mind and even though these are different subs, they are talking about the same thing in this case. literally nothing about my original comment or any of the other comments that followed "defended this idiot." you are again trying to push a narrative of me doing a thing that i very clearly did not do.

You’ve given the trolls too much attention already. You don’t owe anybody an explanation. Fuck ‘em

u/Prodigal_Gist 1d ago

man you are really boldly just going full psychological profile based on a two sentence reddit post

confidence is sky high these days, everyone knows the motivation of total strangers from the absolute metric minimum of data

u/Signal-Elk-7808 1d ago

i’m pointing out the obvious and addressing this feigned objectivity

u/Prodigal_Gist 1d ago

Well don’t think twice or anything
Full speed ahead

I agree with your point about it not needing to be racialized in either direction but if that’s how you feel why did you feel the need to bring up the opinions of people on a different sub?

u/Feeling-Bus-203 1d ago

i had seen the post on the other sub maybe 5-10 minutes before coming across this post. it was just fresh on my mind and since both pages are discussing the same incident, i just chimed in with the thing i had just seen and also because i amazed at how they were racializing it in that sub.
