"We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be." -Kurt Vonnegut, Mother Night

Popehat's Law of Goats:

He who fucks goats, either as part of a performance or to troll those he deems has overly delicate sensibilities is simply, a goatfucker.

He claimed he was just pretending to be racist to trigger the social justice warriors, but even if he is telling the truth, Popehat's Law of Goats still applies.

Unfortunately this is a similar mentality to that which can cause kids of one race to not hang out with kids of another race.

I don't follow, at all. Can you explain?

I have absolutely no idea what you're getting at, or what you could possibly mean by that vague statement. What mentality is that, and why would kids act that way? Can you explicitly explain what you mean, and provide some citations, please?
