[cw; racism in the time of Facebook] Ah, fuck me. Here we go again.

And here I thought I'd blocked all the more overt assholes.

Lo and behold my old Toys R Us coworker Monte rears his head

"Did Senator Hiroshima really ask Barrett that question?"
LiberBEARian
I wrote back that that was a racist thing to say AND NOW WE WAIT.
Hyatt
Senator Hiroshima?
LiberBEARian
He means Senator Hirono. :\

Giving him an "oops, autocorrect!" out to correct.
LiberBEARian
But waiting to see what he'll say
spooky queer
LiberBEARian
I shouldn't be this nervous calling out racism but YET MY HEART IS FOREVER IN MY THROAT
Hooded Figure
that's because you actually care 
LiberBEARian
3 thanks. I think I'm scared of being dogpiled on and also scared about defending myself to an unfeeling group of people. BUT GUESS WHAT. SCARED OF UNCHECKED RACISM MORE
LiberBEARian
let me tell you, it suuuucks to weed into a "haha yeah Dems are stupid" group of 20 people and be the"well, actually" person
LiberBEARian
god i hate this so much. .-.
LiberBEARian
Okay we're good. he took the 'autocorrect' route
LiberBEARian
Which may or may not be true but I'm glad he's not double downing on that AND corrected it
Hyatt
I mean I wouldn't be surprised by it being genuinely autocorrect

my autocorrect does indeed autocorrect Hirono, though on my phone it changes it to "Hiring"
LiberBEARian
I stand (auto) corrected!
𝔚𝔦𝔱𝔠𝔥𝔠𝔯𝔞𝔣𝔱
haha I mean still suspect tbh because I'm not sure what phone would decide you were talking about a nuclear bomb site tragedy but
LiberBEARian
He's PMing me now apologizing and saying he would never insult race or gender because it lowers the debate. I feel better
𝔚𝔦𝔱𝔠𝔥𝔠𝔯𝔞𝔣𝔱
that's good!
Hooded Figure
Oh wow, I'm glad!
