I am surprised I missed your post before. Your claim is unsubstantiated at best. I did state that people who perpetuate stereotypes about black people anger me. A stereotype is perpetuated by bad conduct. It’s perpetuated by a commission and in certain circumstances an omission. The thread starter has received numerous responses from people stating what irks them. Why do the responses
vary in nature? It’s because they are opinions and opinions are subjective in nature even though they tend to be informed by certain experiences we have had.
Please tell me how stating my opinion derived from my experiences and observations can be perceived as perpetuating negative stereotypes about black people.
Whether or not a stereotype has been perpetuated is something which can be judged objectively. Simply because some of the things I have said don’t sit well with you, it does not mean that my conduct, by proffering my opinion has perpetuated anything negative.
