@KaysarRidha with all due respect, it was hurtful and inappropriate of you to immediately defend Tyler as a good person when felt hurt by his use of BLM as strategy. It’s inappropriate that you chose to focus on him as a good egg rather than admonish what he did.
@KaysarRidha with all due respect, it is even more hurtful to watch you fully support Ian without also calling his attackers good people as you did with Tyler. It reveals that you view Bayleigh and Davonne’s pain and experience as less than.
@KaysarRidha it is so vital that you do not center your experience with Tyler when black people are speaking and voicing their concern for their own community. Your decisions have added to the pain felt here.
