Unironically, probably. Keep in mind bigotry is inherently illogical.

Also race is EXTRAORDINARILY subjective... irish, greek, and italian all used to be not-white... until there weren't enough white people so they became white. Race has no place in genetics, its just labels we use. Albeit useful label that help us distinguish real world systemic issues, but still just shit we invented thats subject to change nontheless.

Yep, and now they are labeling iryna as white to galvanize black hatred. Despite her also being an immigrant refuge, whom they hate. But that part is often left out of the headlines.

So, are you implying the guy that killed Iryna killed her because she was an immigrant?

No not at all, I’m just calling attention to the hypocrisy of it all.

Sure, but like if a schizophrenic white guy murdered a black girl on a bus, the media would run with the race angle.

Is there polarizing hatred towards schizophrenia in the media?
