Saying “old white guy” isn’t referencing POLITICO, it’s using POLITICO to say something racist. Inferring that Melissa Gott’s rejection had something to do with her being Latino doesn’t reference POLITICO at all. It’s just being racist.
Wect, the Enquirer, anti-conservatism, diversity in schools, shuffling kids around, every media outlet that ran a similar story ….. the only thing you didn’t try to blame was the kitchen sink (and I suspect you would have if you had thought of it).
Hickey was angry and insulted that things didn’t go his way. He screwed up, lost control and lashed out with racist remarks. Too late. He said it, he owns it.
That’s a game changer. Period.
For you to continue to defend it is to perpetuate it. Period.
Spin it all you want ... Racism is still racism
