It IS about that, no matter how you try to remove it. All of the mods are pretty amicable until you’re some flavor of gross, and all of us react to that. The difference is that Virgil addresses issues specific to black people, which the other mods can’t address due to being non-black. The difference is that Virgil uses AAVE so fae is ‘scary’ and ‘aggressive’.

I can and have said I hate all white people, but because I said it with words afterward explaining myself and because you could dismiss my anger because you pity the poor brown person, you don’t ask me to calm down. You know what I got? I got “I’m sorry about all the shit that happened to you”. Virgil says one thing about not using a specific word which is AAVE and you come in droves about how fae should be nicer. Stop policing PoC and telling us which of us is more acceptable. Stop pitying some of us and ‘allowing’ our reactions and telling others to calm down. It’s really fucking irritating.
