I know that’s not what you were doing, but that’s what we deal with constantly, and because others in the thread had already gone into detail about why it matters this guy was white and male, I did not need to explain again

I actually just posted what amounts to a short essay about this, if you’re interested in more of my reasoning you can check it out. Cheers though, wish you well
