I am the accuser; therefore, you are calling me racist. Also, I'm black and have Jamaican relatives so that whole spiel about how it is I who is evil is a blatantly hypocritical personal attack that tries to move the goalposts of the conversation. Check this out: maybe if I as a black person see buffoonery and strange…
