I think the damage that Smollet has done is pretty clear immediately when things like this happen now because that WAS my immediate thought; not to disbelieve the video, but to wish there was more context because as things stand ... it is perfectly feasible that they were just idiots who were talked into doing monkey impressions deliberately to film it in a (successful) attempt to go viral.

Like I said above, the ONLY thing that makes me think it may well be a real incident of racism is that another passenger clearly believes so as well when the video starts, so it might have been clear what their intent was before the camera started rolling on them. But like I said I wish there was more context. Because the Smollet incident HAS demonstrated that a wait-and-see approach is sensible. But I'm not sure that's a good thing... to be less trusting of things like this.

... ... ... ... ... Did you not end up disappearing with your tail between your legs the last time we got into it, Redway?

It's ok, I get it. "You're very angry about stuff and everyone needs to know", whether we're interested or not, apparently.

Anyway, since I'm not sure exactly who you were asking, I'll clarify for myself:


This clown is saying that the video unfortunately starts too late, and ends too early, to give an overview of what actually happened from start to finish and it is a shame that recent events have shown that context is important, and that it's naive to think otherwise. I'm not calling the guy who made the video a liar - like I said, there being others audible also saying they were being racist seems to confirm that they were being - but the video in itself is simply not enough to be certain.

I'm sure you're still angry about that explanation but I also don't care so
