I've been refraining from entering this fray because other people have been putting things so well in the Rangers' thread. But I can't stay silent here. Seb's post was spot-on; and the fact that you keep focusing on an insignificant part of his post, and willfully detracting from the important narrative here, the one that this thread was created to discuss, is absolutely appalling. I say that without hyperbole. A black man has shown the courage to repeatedly share his own experiences with racism, and attempt to give a glimpse into the kinds of things that Givani Smith was experiencing, and you refuse to even read his words.
That refusal is obvious because you're twisting his intention, even after he clarified it for you. He threw out the 10-15 number to show that it wasn't one person who said something unacceptable to Givani (which is confirmed in news articles, so this is fact, that it was more than one), but that it wasn't the entire fan base. He used that number to not minimize the situation, but also to not alienate the good people among the Soo fanbase. That's admirable. And you're ****ting all over him. You should be ashamed. Asking for an apology? You have to be kidding. This painting yourself as some sort of victim here shows an incredible lack of insight. Seb is not "casually accusing" anyone of anything. Unless you can point me toward people he has personally identified? THAT would be causing harm, if he had accused identifiable people with no evidence. That has not been done. He was clearly throwing out a random number to make a point, which he clarified to you in a response, and you doubled down like you hadn't even read his reply. Yet you expect him to read and respond to yours.
Lastly, you say you would reply with a constructive response if you were given the material to. Seb and others have given plenty of constructive material to make this a rich discussion, but you're inexplicably chastising a guy who's shown a lot of character here for no discernable reason. That makes the reasonable conclusion that you're either incapable of a constructive response on this matter, or not interested in providing one. Now, this is a public message board so I'm under no illusions here with what I'm about to say, but if you're going to insist on continuing to pursue this illogical point of contention with Seb, I think most will agree that your "insights" are not welcome here. You're merely being antagonizing.
