You can't persuade fanboys. You'd be better off trying to convince a wall. ~CodeNamePlasmaSnake~

A positive thread on this board is as rare as gold, so it deserves a reply.

I agree. It was nice to see a man of color boldly and unapologetically speak his mind. 

Yeah, way too many white people overreacting to his speech, and getting all defensive as hell about it. White people can't stand to hear themselves or the systems they set up called into question by black folks, or their racism called out--that's really why they're so damn mad at him. Some idiot even started a petition to get him let go from GREY'S ANATOMY,but Shonda Rimes just blew it off, like, nah, that just ain't gonna happen. I was cracking up abouth that.
