Also, no, referring to Trump as an orangutan is not the same thing, as white people have not been historically compared to monkeys to denigrate them.  I'm not saying the words used against Trump are excusable, they just aren't on the same level.

I've already shared my view of how we will ****** growth as a society, if we keep focusing on these "historical" comparisons. We will never be equal if we insist on being separate.

The only reason one comment is less inexcusable than the other is because of what happened in the past. To continue to bring it up will never allow us to progress.

Is calling an Asian American a "slope" as atrocious as calling  an African American an "ape"?
