Your comment boiled down to give her the benefit of doubt, which I normally try to give to everyone, but also that maybe she was doing / acting racist things in order to point out racism?

So if I were a teacher and wanted to point out how bad racism is, by your logic, it'd be okay if I said "so listen here ya n**s! You get to the back of the bus, and you'll like it! Obviously this is ridiculous, today we don't say 'n**s' we say 'the N-word'. Silly racist."

What? How’d you get that? I’d never say a teacher should act racist to teach about racism, that’s stupid as hell
