keilexandraIn the extended debate recently at John Scalzi's blog, a slightly-disturbing thought came to me. Regarding anti-racism, it's "with us or against us." Being passively not-racist does nothing, and so those people are criticized for it and they get defensive. (I'm not speaking about Scalzi specifically, because he's been a great sport about everyone yelling at him to get a clue.)
It's just... sad. I wish the battle wasn't divided along such solid lines--and maybe I'm misreading everything and it isn't, but it feels like it is.
As I said tosethdickinson, and as I now say to everyone out there: Life isn't fair.
