If you& #39;re reading this thread and agreeing with it& #39;s premise and message, do me a favor. Read the thread as if the words "white" and "black" were switched. Do you still agree? Does the sentiment still come across? I was horrified reading this originally and with switching words. https://twitter.com/ProfessorCrunk/status/1274698133289738240">https://twitter.com/Professor...

I even tried something a bit libertarian: what if we just replace white/black ppl/supremacy with individual/individuality/liberty? Still reads like a Jonestown thread. You don& #39;t expand and protect liberty by protecting those with the largest voice, protect those at the margins.

Thanks to @kmele for bringing it to my attention. This is a bad-faith argument if I& #39;ve ever seen one. Love thy neighbor. Be compassionate toward others. Engage in the broad marketplace of ideas. Doing this does more to end racism than the thread& #39;s line of thinking ever will.

In that spirit, I hope @wethefifth is able to host @ProfessorCrunk to talk about this more. This type of thinking deserves more than a moment on "Some Idiot Wrote This."

This">https://twitter.com/thomascha... thread will be a good place to start. Looking for reactions from @coldxman, @GlennLoury, and @JohnHMcWhorter to complete the pentumverate.
