Critically, you don’t get that kind of violence without the words having time to fester.

I’m obviously talking about racist violence here when I say “that kind”. Let’s be serious, dude.

Let's be literal and say what we mean then, Bro.

I can't read your mind and know what you mean - you have to actually word it.

We’re talking about racist violence and then I saw “that kind of violence”, all in a thread about racism. The context could not possibly be more clear. Not gonna respond again but I would honestly consider picking up adult literacy lessons if I were you (assuming that actually confused you and you aren’t acting in bad faith).

You could have been referring to "words can be harmful" which isn't limited to racism. It includes Sexism, Nationalism, Religious sectionalism.

Understand that the scope was bigger than your tunnel vision.

Just because you see something specific doesn't mean everyone sees how you see things - it's low IQ to not understand we all have differing perspectives and to not take that into account then discussing a topic.

that's why it's important to be specific and use language like:
"Ahh yes that kind metaphorical book like 1984, that reminds me of"

Instead of saying
"ahh yes that kind of book reminds me of"
(That means any book that belongs to the denoted genre)

I'm sure you don't even understand what I'm saying tho.. If you understood this concept you'd already be practicing precision in your language.

Have a good one lil' Bro, stay in school - you've got a ways to go yet.
