This is the really disturbing thing. Why would someone want Twitter to have race-based image cropping? And yet the behavior of many in the various threads is precisely as if they did! I think it may actually make them happier if it's true. Who are the real racists, again? It's hard to tell sometimes.

And after all, doesn't the Twitter OP acknowledge this inevitable result when calling it a "horrible" experiment?
