"My view has always been ... that if you need to know the colour (or demographic trait in general) of the speaker before you know if you are offended or not, then the hate is coming from you – not from the speaker. What you hate is not what was said but the person saying it."~ commenter 'Ferox' on the blog post 'People use the weapons they are given'

It’s actually worse than that. It’s not hatred of the person doing the speaking per se, it’s hatred of the race/demographic of the person, which you assume necessarily determines their identity.
