I know bigots get upset when anyone calls bigotry bigoted, but can we agree that calling a group of human beings "animals" is bigotry? https://twitter.com/elisefoley/status/996839161972903936 …

I was biased towards believing this as it has been widely presented, based on Trump’s often inflammatory rhetoric. However, this is a video clip that provides the context of discussing MS13 seconds prior. I don’t think the take is as clear after watchinghttp://youtu.be/3tmT7-dhOWs

Replying to @tomassidenfaden
I think you’re right. I reacted to reports rather than the whole video in context. Still critical of the fearmongering, and there are racist overtones, but calling a violent gang animals is definitely not as bad as calling a large swath of illegal immigrants animals.
