Oh, yeah, give me more of that raw prejudice. Got any blood libel?

Do it. The post I'm responding to is in fact raw prejudice. Calling a billion people morally bankrupt. Nobody would tolerate a comment like that about black people.

Ban me for calling it.

It was a shitty comment and I've replied to it, but someone else breaking the site guidelines doesn't make it ok to break them yourself.

I appreciate that. Slight aside -- I wasn't the guy you warned yesterday, I jumped in sticking up for him because I thought he was right about a community problem.

At the time I posted, the comment explicitly calling all chinese people "morally bankrupt" was 6 hours old and it was not gray.

Apologies for my overheated response.
