@abraham.su I’m not complaining. I never lost a fistfight in Hawaii. Are you a complainer? Once racism can be justified, it can be used against you just as easily, perhaps for “antisocial behaviour” or “noncompliance.” Set those terms, and your enemy will adopt them. History proves it. Nobody wants that!

@chadstanton.blacksky.app Also, ‘privileged’ as an argument-ender is a strange move in 2026—you’re essentially saying I have some superpower you lack. Taken to its logic, calling someone privileged means you think they need a handicap just to make the conversation competitive. That’s not an argument.

@chadstanton.blacksky.app Ironic, since this is gatekeeping too—deciding whose experience ‘counts’ as valid input versus whose gets waved off as privilege. I told you what I saw firsthand in Hawaii. Dismissing that as privilege rather than engaging it is the same boundary-policing you’re accusing me of.

@chadstanton.blacksky.app Witnessed this firsthand at UEA in ’90-’91—posh students downgrading their accents and buying deliberately crap cars to dodge class resentment. Thatcher-era backlash made poshness a liability, at least on campus. Point stands: gatekeeping cuts every direction, not just downward.
