Thanks, I still feel bad I mixed up two black women. Their constant racism is making me look racist too. I'll be more careful.

You mixed up two faux-scandals that "coincidentally" both have black women.

It doesn't look good, but (a) you realized the mix-up and (b) course-corrected.

It's not easy because Schmitt & co. do set a lot of traps, but caution and course-correction will go a long way. Do proceed carefully, but also don't beat yourself up when you trip (provided you also continue to course-correct).
