well the larger discussion really has nothing to do with Davidson because the real CRUX of the issue is the reality that are so few things you could say to a white person that could be even on par what calling a black person the n word which is the discussion I think is trying to be had underneath all of this.
it's hard for me to sort of it think about this in words but there is something to be said about the fact that offensive language towards white people is simply just "fuck you" or something but for black people it's worse and that has nothing to do with Tourettes syndrome or Davidson as a person and what he actually thinks about black people.
been thinking a lot about this too
Is there truly any mental disorder that can’t be medicated that everyone agrees on or believes in ?
autism? it’s just some idiots think it’s caused by vaccines because signs don’t show up until after they’re old enough to have been vaccinated

You get it . You get what I was saying about crack not being effective .
Lmfao censoring the word made this post look crazy

lol you with a straight face on ktt 2 going to tell me that people believe in autism . They believe in it but don’t grasp the spectrum and say crazy ignorant s*** all day on here about it
crazy work to grow up surrounded by ppl saying the n word in scotland of all places
why do you think he was surrounded by that though?

they believe it exists, they just don’t understand anything about it
He probably sees it as him apologizing for something he can’t change aka apologizing for being himself
I mean...if he's socially aware enough to remove himself from the audience after saying that s***, he's socially aware enough to know the impact it had.
they believe it exists, they just don’t understand anything about it
I mean I think Tourette’s most on here believe it exist just don’t know anything about it truly or care to now
yea they definitely undersold his tourette’s
been thinking a lot about this too
because i think it reveals something so dark and seedy and unequal about all of this. it's unbelievably unfair. U can't say s*** to a white person (that you don't know and if you don't know their ethnicity) that would truly HURT.
Even with Tourettes syndrome, there are limits to what your mind can conceive of what to say to a white person!! That's the part that gets me!
why do you think he was surrounded by that though?
realistically how else he's learning that word in the 70s/80s
I mean I think Tourette’s most on here believe it exist just don’t know anything about it truly or care to now
fair, people in here are posting like they believe you get to choose your tics and the severity like on a sliding scale or something you could just adjust
i really think dude was set up lowkey
I mean...if he's socially aware enough to remove himself from the audience after saying that s***, he's socially aware enough to know the impact it had.
We don’t know if he was told to leave to lobby or what article kind of speculates there because it says it’s believed he left to lobby because no tics after that . What occurred isnt confirmed . Apology it’s tough to think of what to say and again has to be typed or relayed to not risk a tic ( people think this is a joke because they don’t understand)
realistically how else he's learning that word in the 70s/80s
trying to figure out the underlying implication here. do you think the n word was some secret word that only racists knew about in scotland?
I get his condition. I get that in a situation like that, his anxiety would cause the worst things to pop up in his mind.
It sounds like a true life wrecking, soul crushing condition to live with, so i have sympathy.
BUT, my thing is that him and or his team should have realised that attending that event wouldn't have been appropriate. Or atleast put him in a special area or green room.
I don't believe it is on Black people to be accommodating in this regard.
Its alsl not fair for Michael or Delroy to tell them that they shouldn't feel some type of way about it when dehumanizing language is aimed at them

The portrayal of Tourette’s in art hasn’t helped

he was there because the documentary about his life and his condition was up for an award at the show. the audience was made aware of his condition before the show started

Peep the “awareness” given in the tweet above

That’s all fair them feeling some type of way or wanting to talk to baftas valid. People posting on the internet “ we should kill him , beat his ass, he’s racist clearly he didn’t say that word to white people” isn’t valid to me
trying to figure out the underlying implication here. do you think the n word was some secret word that only racists knew about in scotland?
not at all no
the only observation i was trying to make is that racism is learned but also racism in scotland with very few black people in the late 1900s is crazy
