Fake news! Leash was dead wrong. He tagged me in a patronizing post that he was factually wrong about. I've repeatedly said that day and for months that I have done business with people like his neighbors (folks he grew up around) and that the were prideful people who loved their country and way of life. Like most they're resistant to change but they are NOT racist. This has been repeated by me multiple times. That still didn't stop Leash from starting the offensive trend of posters claiming that I called them racist when I've literally done the opposite.
How the fuck do you know anything about “my neighbors” or “people I grew up around”?
Do you know what kind of faux outrage you would have if I’d made a similar statement about your neighbors or people you grew up around?
“I never said Nas’ community was full of criminals. I said they were people who love their community and their neighbors.”You’d blow a gasket so fucking fast, it’d be embarrassing. You’d attack me for speaking about people I don’t really know, even though you seemingly do it with no hesitation.
Don’t ever talk to me about a high horse. You have absolutely no problem labeling entire groups of people as long as they’re not YOUR group of people. You’re just as prejudiced as anybody else, but you’re the first to throw stones when it’s shit you don’t want to hear.
I spoke directly to you, RR, and LTG because you all three commented on JLN’s thoughts. If you want to conflate that into some sort of victim-craving mindset to mean that i only spoke to black people, then that’s your problem, not mine.
You can sit here and claim I owe you an apology all you want, but you’re not gonna get shit. You aren’t owed shit.
You've shared with the board where you grew up. Earlier this year I shared with you some of the places in the state that I did business in and talked about the dozens if not hundreds of families I sat down with. MANY were veterans that loved their country and way of life and they're very prideful folks. You didn't disagree with that assessment. I've described similar Trump voters as people who wanted the pride of being able to make a living and not a handout. I can relate to that because I was raised by country folks and I've always had a similar pride myself. We looked differently and grew up in different areas but had similar values. I wasn't insulting them. Up until a couple of days ago it didn't appear that you believed my comments were insulting.
If you worked in the inner city I wouldn't have any issue with you making a statement like that. The fact that you are bothered by me saying MANY of the folks who make up the president's dedicated 35% aren't racist is odd because I believe that is the point you've been trying to make while painting with a broad brush.
I mean you can say me labeling the folks you grew up around as not being racist is me sitting on a high horse but that would also be odd. It's fine that you think that I'm prejudiced. It's better to get stuff off your chest instead of holding it in. I still don't think you or your neighbors are racist. I think their support of the president is misguided but ultimately I understand it. I believe that your belief that talking nice or appeasing them will make them stop supporting the president is wrong.
I literally never commented about what percentage of voters are racist. That never happened. LTG literally did what you claimed that he didn't do. I provided proof of that. I don't recall what RR wrote but I believe he and JLN were debating an old topic unrelated to the post made by LTG. Your post came off as patronizing and most importantly it was wrong. You're unwilling or unable to see how that could be offensive.
I didn't expect an apology from you. You're too emotional to even recognize what you've done and how offensive it is. Despite all of this I still think you're a decent dude. I've already forgiven you for accusing me of something that NEVER happened and ultimately starting a trend that I've been forced to defend myself against the past 3 days.
I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and hope you enjoy the holidays.
