I think you might be having some reading comprehension issues. I said that Obama’s essay offered more than bland platitudes or admonitions, which was my initial response to your comment to Drew in which you pedantically chose to focus on the semantics of hyperbole instead of acknowledging the validity of the rage behind it. Obama acknowledges the anger while offering a path forward.

You’re angry. When you calm down, perhaps we can talk.

You’re simply dismissive, not to mention patronizing.

As this conversation is going nowhere except further down the rabbit hole, I will now take my leave. That frees you up to go back to your bubble from which you can continue scolding black writers on Medium and telling them how to feel — an activity you seem to devote a lot of time to.

You’re obtuse. When you’re no longer obtuse, perhaps we can talk.
