Okay so I finally read those Sarah Jeong tweets and I dunno man, I don't see how they can be saved by contextual argumentation. I think she really is just a garden-variety casual racist, albeit towards a subgroup it's socially permissible to express bigoted thoughts toward.

Jeet there is literally nothing of value you can offer to anyone on Twitter, save your silence.

If you think she’s actually a racist, I’m not sure what you can offer either

You're right about the contextual interpretation, but this is why these kinds of tweets are so destructive. They're easily demagogued, if read literally they're racist and they bolster the totally absurd view that anti-white racism & discrimination is a real problem in the US.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
