Yup. Least common denominator. Fastest route to pointing out who you mean. I hate defending SJ, but the people who are offended at that are the ones who have a problem with race.
Agreed. x1,000,000,000
And you would X1,000,000,000 incorrect. How can you say that someone having an issue with SJ comments mean they have a race problem? That is ludacrous!!!
Because they are uncomfortable if someone points out a difference the other person was born with, ala race. In my experience, people that are truly comfortable with race don't bring the music to a sudden stop because they hear something that denotes the race of someone. It's the difference between noticing the difference and accepting it or glossing over it and hoping no one points it out.
If people of a different race have a problem with something they'll speak up for themselves. They don't need white apologists doing it for them.
Or, a person could simply be offended by the comment period. Kinda like if you tell a woman she has a big booty and someone else takes offense to your comment. Does that mean the person that takes offense to your comment has a big booty issue? Does that mean that everyone that would take offense to your comment has a big booty issue?

I am not the least bit surprised.
