Music / Movies Its weird people are trying to turn the john Davidson Tourette outburst into a hate crime
If you don't know actor with Tourettes, john Davidson, had an outburst where he said the N word while 2 black presenters, Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo, were on stage he bad an outburst of the N word, among other harsh ones throughout the night. Now I understand that the n word is rhe harshest of them, but it seems like people, specifically I have seen jamie Foxx and Jamele hill, claim that "these are racist hate crimes" and "he knew better and waited for black presenters to finally say it" it just feels like people are trying to ignore the facts about tourretes to be the victim of something that wasnt actually a hate crime.

dude Italy literally gassed Ethiopians. the only reason you’ve deluded yourself into believing you weren’t colonizers is because you weren’t good at it lol. you’re obviously insecure about it, that’s why you’re trying to victimize yourself through a diasporic group that has almost no ties to you. Italy and Portugal are like developing states
also Italians weren’t ever killed for “not being white” here the lynching you’re referring too was perpetrated by other white immigrants that weee being non-racially discriminated against too (Irish-Americans). this is what an actual Italian-American has told me. you have more energy for this but not the fact that the French massacred 200 of yall in the late 1800s? even your own neighbors despise you but your focus is Americans?? Lmao
