LOL. What did I say that was racist? Someone asked what the gorilla suit was for, and I explained it. Assuming that everything and everyone is racist (especially when you don’t know what race they are) has got to be a pretty difficult burden. I hope you are getting through your troubles OK!

Then you have shrieks of ‘homophobic!’

It’s the entire assumption here, it doesn’t need to be spelled out. Hamilton likes to play pretend economist/financial guru sometimes but anyone who knows anything can see right through him. Pay no mind.

I mean, I could be wrong, but it feels like the “average person” can’t get in the home buying game in the first place right now, because rents are so high and wages are so low that even if you could pay a mortgage, you can’t save enough to make a down payment. Idk the specifics of Point, but sacrificing a percentage…
