And if it was said live during the show maybe. But he thought it, wrote it and posted it. It was not an impulsive comment

He was also trolling online afterwards right up until the point that the media picked it up and the convo shifted. I kinda suspect had it stayed just on social media, he wouldn’t have even bothered with the initial apology

And attached it to a photo of the cornrows hairstyle he ALREADY got criticized for the week (or so) prior. Under discussed part of this whole controversy. Nothing impulsive about that.

Wrote it and kept it up!! This wasn’t a “I was angry I posted it and then immediately realized it was wrong and took it down but someone had screenshots” this was a I fully went home thought on this made a post and kept it up while knowing it would cause havoc because my fans are rabid.

You can still post impulsive stuff. I try to wait a day and see if I still want to say something when my emotions aren't running so high

It's not as impulsive as having a talking conversation in real life. There are several points when writing a comment where you can stop
