You could tell my having gone to mostly white schools in the past trauma popped out there because the amount of times that fucking word ā€œteasingā€ gets told to people experiencing racism is unreal and thatā€™s not even mentioning the amount of times that now as an adult youā€™ll hear it from people in your friend groups whoā€™ll claim youā€™re overreacting
Saying racism is TEASING or immaturity isnā€™t the same thing as flat out repeating multiple times that Gerrard is the worst version of a human and saying that he MADE FUN OF the minorities
Teasing means to PLAYFULLY make fun of
Tumblr media
Make fun of by itself is to RIDICULE OR MOCK ANOTHER PERSON TO MAKE THEM THE BUTT OF THE JOKE
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Thatā€™s why racists make fun of people they donā€™t ā€œteaseā€ because teasing implies playfulness while make fun of implies ridicule or mockery
Do I need to give you an English lesson????
So yes Ryan saying that captain Gerrard made fun of Tommy and buck and chimney isnā€™t the same thing as Lou plain downplaying what Tommy did in the flashback eps
Certain white people in this fandom are actually gonna drive me insane everytime the racism topic gets bought up (they said butters my biscuit yes Ik theyre whitešŸ¤­šŸ¤­)
For real tho in all seriousness like where is the sense
Also saying that Lou said it in a cameo which you emphasised in all caps vs Ryan saying it in an interview is really proving the opposite of the point you wanna make cos in an interview you can get caught off guard or stumble over words and itā€™s on the record (not that Ryan did because he again said MADE FUN OF HE DIDNT SAY TEASING OR DOWNPLAY IT IN ANY WAY) but in a cameo that you donā€™t have to do but are choosing to do and that you can reshoot as many times and prepare your words however you want beforehand? Yeah exactly you are proving the opposite of what you want which is that you can pull ten million excuses but fact of the matter is a white actor addressing his characters past participation in racism shouldve considered his words more
Anyways Iā€™m not even tagging this past discourse tags cos I legit just wanted to rant at the stupidity of some posts I come across
