Yeah, I absolutely don't.

But again, I have no problem with racists being exposed. The Amy Coopers and the Jacqueline Delucas? Good! I'm glad they lost their jobs.

The problem is that black people like Joseph want to pretend that any time their feelings get hurt it's racism. Lying like this makes actual racism harder to fight. And while I don't think that I should decide how other people feel, yes, we as adults expect certain standards of behaviour from other adults.

If you saw an adult sitting on the floor crying and throwing a tantrum because they dropped their icecream, you would, correctly, identify that as unreasonable behaviour. Trying to ruin somebody's life because they said four words to you is also unreasonable behaviour. If his "PTSD" made him overreact, he should apologise instead of doubling down. He should also seek therapy instead of pretending this is acceptable behaviour.

The worst thing, as I've pointed out many times now, society is only willing to normalise this when black people do it. You must be able to see how infantilising this is.
