      What about that picture indicates she’s disabled? Why say something that is solely to point out some random persons perceived flaws? How did you think anything you’ve written in these comments was pertinent/contributed to anything? The fact that you thought you were being either racist or ableist with your comments and decided to post them anyway is mind boggling

        Look I don’t think a was being racist I was just trying to cover my bases because I’ve been told I’m terrible at not just thinking everyone I see is white, you know unless it’s super obvious

        I only really felt comfortable saying what I said because I was like 99 percent sure she wasn’t from some group where that would be a slur against her, the ableist thing was me assuming that look based stuff would be covered under that

          Maybe the better thing to concentrate on is why you felt like that comment was necessary. You didn’t seem to have a goal behind it, other than drawing more attention. It’s really not relevant to the discussion or the post. So why post it? It felt like your intention was just to talk shit about a random person, and maybe you should think about that.

              We get it: she’s not your type. She is out having fun with her boyfriend having a drink. Honestly, your language just seems like mean juvenile bullying shit.

              She, or people she knows, may end up reading your bullying post.

              Honestly, did you really hope to learn something from your comment or gain a perspective? No, of course it’s fucking bullying.

              How does her ethnic background or facial characteristics (as shown in a single photo while she’s out with her boyfriend at a cocktail place) relate to the funny part of the tweet? Can’t it just be a funny tweet?

                I never thought I was bullying, I didn’t think I said anything that would be offensive in person or make her day worse

                  Bullies often don’t realise what they’re doing is bullying. It was just a bit of bants, you shouldn’t be so sensitive about it.

                    I don’t want to hide behind ignorance but ya I’m really not that good at making jokes most of the times but I don’t think I’ve ever made anyone upper with them
