… But aren’t you also being an apologist for someone who advocated genocide using the comparison of a surgeon removing a gangrenous limb? And no. I’m not advocating homicide or physical assaults on Jenny Hyun.

I don’t go on Twitter. I pay attention to what I see mainly on Tumblr, and on my dash. I don’t really pay attention to things on Twitter for a reason, as I find Twitter to be way too impulsive. Impulsivity which easily gives hateful and emotionally unstable individuals like Hyun a source for their racist frustration. I’m not saying that Twitter is a “mouthpiece” for racism (no, I’m not making any kind of correlation, so please don’t twist my words), I’m just saying that this is why I don’t like Twitter (as a personal opinion.)

I try not to pay attention to stupid racists. If Hyun truly had the means to commit genocide, I’d pay attention. Everyone hates her now, and for good fucking reason. Who will help her commit the “genocide” she hatefully wishes to dish out? No one. She’s harmless.

This is retarded. While, you people I’m sure, as a mass, can go to hurt her, one single (and stupid) individual, much more than she can go to hurt you.

I still can’t believe the insanity that has come about in regards to this issue today.

Speaking of impulsivity… Have you any idea what I’ve posted today in regards to this situation and pervasive anti-black sentiment within the APIA community (as an APIA individual) and the need for us to address and remedy the roots of this ingrained racism that many of us have adopted? Have I called for a mass of folks to assault her? If you’re not really sure what she has been saying on twitter or her blog… how are you contributing to a dialogue instead of distracting? Do you really think there is an angry crowd outside her door, armed and ready for violence? This isn’t about her individual capacity to effectively accomplish genocide, there are deeper ‘in-community’ and ‘Black-Asian solidarity’ issues that have been raised and engaged over the course of the day. Her racist rants on twitter have been switched to private rather than publicly offensive. So don’t come at it like the only thing that happened today was that some folks got pissed and spat some violent words over a racist who was calling for their removal from the human race.
