| Feb 4, 2018 at 1:18 | comment | added | Memor-X | @Darren my primary purpose was to remove the "white people in the RACIST, PREJUDICE, SEGREGATED, KKK ridden,former slave owning South" as saying "former slave owning" while talking about a time where there was slavery, to me, makes the parts before that a current generalized verbal attack at anyone white person living in the south. i don't deny that segregation happens but how it was worded did not sit right with me in regards to the be nice policy where the OP was, as per the page, being a jerk | |
| Feb 4, 2018 at 0:33 | comment | added | Darren | @memor-x, while the original version of your question was probably a little OTT, I feel like your edit is almost revisionist. I think removing the “from white people” part in particular takes away the main thrust of the question. Segregation happened, you can’t change that fact. | |
