Oh hey, I was in the Whitehall/Allentown/Bethlehem area doing work for a Verizon contractor (the Scientologists I posted about earlier in the thread, actually) last year.

Having been there, I have absolutely no problem believing that that letter is real. Philly's not bad, I understand that Pittsburgh is okay though I never went that far west doing work, but damned if everything in between doesn't make the Deep South look modern by comparison.

Yeah, all it confirmed was that it wasn't a hoax on the part of the daycare.

I'm naive as gently caress and want to believe it isn't true because it seems way too pointed and generic republican housewife strawman-y.

lets say for a second that some dude dropped his kids off and thinks to himself he's going to send a racist letter ironically

that dude is still an rear end in a top hat and should get caught in the crossfire because he's providing a smokescreen for people we've been trying to remove from our society for centuries now

Yeah, even if it's "just" ironic racism the person who wrote it is still A Bad Person. If your form of "ironic" racism involves harassing people in a way indistinguishable from regular racism, the "joke" isn't really working and you don't get to act surprised when someone punches you in the mouth.

I have no trouble believing it's real, though I feel It Needs Every Word Capitalised Or I Can't Take It Seriously.

no debating any of that from me

It's just an easier pill to swallow that it was a gigantic rear end in a top hat being ironic than someone who's genuinely the kind of despicable person that letter describes.

Half Term Tony at it again. Friendly reminder for whenever he talks about his religious faith that he flunked out of priest school because he didn't believe in treating criminals and sinners with compassion.

He is also literally a lizard man who can't stop licking his lips, and as lizards power up in the sun, I think this is why he wants to increase global average temperatures??? Makes you think
