McKinney is a DAMN good writer, and I'm beyond certain she didn't need anyone to drop off some "Argument Triangle." What, you think black folks can't "argue right"? We doing the whole, "If only you did it right, you stupid black people" again? Cause that's what it feels like.

Really what that argument triangle is about is a capitulation to whoever is demanding you engage in their argument. This is a triangle for people who have never had to argue for their very life and existence.

The truth is that trying to hit some higher level of discourse is very much something White America is obssessed with. You care so much about the process that you give up on the outcome. Black folks aren't arguing about latte's. We want to not be shot by police.

I do not OWE you kindness when you're arguing for my dissolution. I do not OWE you a friendly "argument" on your ground. And I do NOT have to do things YOUR way, to make YOU feel better. I'm NOT going to calmly talk about Racism. Not once not ever.

And it's once agian fun to see how my words are used to show, "trolling". I am in fact highly capable of having a high level argument. I will NOT, however, have that argument about race, sex, or gender. Bigots don't get to spar with my intellect.

Also, the sheer fakeness of the end. Nothing about this makes me want to talk. It's performative. This shitck they're doing is performative. And you can hear how hollow it is. They want speaker fees. Not change.pic.twitter.com/TtRbv39xEC

you.... don’t want me to finish the convo? Do? Not sure. Anyway here is where the essay was from. http://www.paulgraham.com/disagree.html I agree it must be infuriating to have people police tone when cops kill black ppl. It’s horrible and a double standard, but the high ground is empty.

No, you're trying to make yourself look good. And proving this. You can't seem to accept that maybe yes, YOU were out of pocket and that in fact, we do not need your opinion.pic.twitter.com/COEWebNX99
