Mayor Brandon Scott has come to expect overt and not-so-overt racism.
The latest example came in the aftermath of Tuesday night’s Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse. Within hours, Scott said he started to notice social media posts labeling him as a “DEI Mayor.”
Scott immediately bristled at the dog whistle.
“We know what these folks really want to say when they say DEI mayor,” he told The Banner. “Whether it is DEI or clown. They really want to say the N-word. But there is nothing they can do and say to me that is worse than the treatment of my ancestors. I am proud of who I am and where I come from.”
Did you not just say this?
If you meant something else, you’re not a very good writer. The downvotes piling on should be your hint.
LOL as if downvotes on Lemmy mean absolutely anything to me. The place where copyrights don’t exist and everything is supposed to magically be free and no one has to work. LOL give me a break.
I meant what I said, you just need to learn to read properly.
Right, which brings me back to the impossibility of someone whom is elected to be a “diversity hire”. When I went to school I learned that hired and elected are two completely different words with fundamentally different meanings.
As for the downvotes, normally I’d agree that votes aren’t especially meaningful, but in this instance I think it’s clear you either have pathetic opinions or a sorry ability of conveying what you actually mean.
Also kind of funny to denigrate the platform you’re on, the door is that way if you hate it so much
No it brings you back to not understanding the word “if”.
Then why did you bring it up?
No you just either have pathetic reading comprehension skills or are intentionally misrepresenting my statements.
Once again you are intentionally misrepresenting my statements.
Gonna just continue to dig your heels in despite the fact that it’s impossible to hire someone for an electable position, gotcha.
Gonna just continue to dig your heels in despite the fact that I clearly never said that happened, gotcha.
Do you make a habit of proposing impossible hypotheticals?
Are you still here?
