I think a number of these folks are genuinely surprised that they have thrown bi and multiracial people and relationships under the bus. The issues or racism and colorism are more nuanced than how it’s being expressed here—and this ended up being my copy/paste response (which I didn’t want to adapt as a reply here…

So sorry, and how embarrasing!

It took me a long time to forgive* myself for putting up with bullies and listening to my mother’s trouble advice that consisted only of, “Just ignore them.”

That’s not a phrase specific to African Americans, and this topic also isn’t specific to African Americans. It comes up for folks of other backgrounds. (Want to make sure this isn’t being laid at the feet of any one race since it’s more pervasive than that.)

Almost all the bullies I knew in school were girls. The only male bully was put up to it by his girlfriend and,even so, was nowhere near as bad as she was. Even though I was a girl and knew and know many great girls and women, that childhood experience does stay with me.

nailed it.

No more or less than they care about your opinion. Its an internet comment section. You realize that right? Or do you think youre internet special?

Classic racist person response. You have more in common with a trump voter named jim bob than a liberal halfie like me.

Yes. you fucking moron.

Ok racist who thinks hes woke.

Im not half black but im half something and you call me or my kids a mutt to my face ill slap the taste out your mouth. Racist motherfucker, only we get to say that and im not fucking kidding. We get to exist in a world where neither side accepts us because we arent enough for them. Well fuck them and fuck you.

Im sick of jay z and beyonce. Its one thing to be private, thats cool, its another to create a bullcrap controversy to pimp a music streaming service even kanye is too sane for. They can go away now, toodles.

Respectfully, you know that thing where POC endure repeat racist comments, profiling, violence, general treatment, fracking atmosphere & history and white people try to say, “Oh that’s not racism” or “That doesn’t mean what you think it means” or “You’re so angry” or “That’s your issue”?

As a pedestrian, I’ve been hit by bicyclists hard enough to be knocked over at least four times. Bicycles are a menace, and do not belong on public roads or walkways.

I mean are you a journalist? Or some one paid to rant?

The first time they have to go out after having a kid they realize they’ve made a tragic mistake and throw the baby in a dumpster, of course.

How do all these other carless New Yorkers deal with toddlers and their children?

I have a wonderful solution to your problem: move.

i lived in a skyscraper/city portion of long beach where parking was impossible. buy a fucking garage spot. jesus fuck.

i mean, for the inconvenience it causes you, why do you even have a car?

Well, you said you just bought the car for the weekends, so I’d imagine taking a train to your garage once a week would still be a lot less stressful than the daily battle.
