kind enough to take out my own emotional labor to educate you, as per the request of your past friends. This is an emotional labor that comes from years of experiencing traumatic racism, and also from your aggressiveness that occurred during the conversation.
Though you have changed your identification to hide from your mistakes, it does not undo the damage you have done.
However, please know that I am not calling you out in order to have people attack you: I am merely calling you out because you deserve the right to be educated on

why what you said was so harmful to minority communities, including mine. I truly hope you learn from this.
Additionally, even though I profusely apologized for them being uncomfortable during the situation but remained direct throughout, this is what they had to say about me to @toastywaffl3z after repeatedly claiming to my face that I was attacking them. I hope this all makes sense.
