She went on the defence so hard. The radio host was the most patient guy ever. Jeez.
Them crocodile tears mean fuck all.
She is a racist, albiet probably with some mental issues..m she did say she was bipolar.
Also why is the go to excuse for vile bouts of racism either attributed to a bipolar disorder or some serious anxiety issues. I know family members who deal with similar issues but they have some bit of self control and awareness because you don't magically lose both. This isn't some racist jekyl & hyde thing.
Maybe my anecdote is incorrect and maybe the worlds racists are just bipolar and/or have serious anxiety issues but that still shouldn't be used as a defense.
Because mental illness is a scapegoat, instead of people just being racist. It's the idea that racism is an isolated thing.
Plenty of people have mental illness without being racist.

An estimated 26.2 percent of Americans ages 18 and older — about one in four adults — suffer from a diagnosable mental disorder in a given year.1 When applied to the 2004 U.S. Census residential population estimate for ages 18 and older, this figure translates to 57.7 million people.
Many of those people go through their whole lives without spouting racial slurs. She can in fact, be bipolar and racist. She can hold racist beliefs and bouts of bipolar anxiety cause those feelings to surface, that's still two separate things.
Im quite clearly racist, the secret is out. All I said was it'd be interesting to see it from the off and they both said he did something to alarm the children (this being starting the car) I just wanted to see what was so terrifying about it. blimey good byesarcasm
Who said anything about you being racist? I just said there's a problem with the question. Start with saying "hey, that was super racist" and then you can ponder that question afterwards, instead of posing the question and then when called on it, saying "oh, well she was racist, too. I just want clarification". You were called on it, because it's a rather normal tactics to avoid talking about the racist actions.
