If you think that was a comment on indian genes, take a step back and read it again. Its a farcical comment about how men do not treat women equally and those who don't are recessive morons.

It's highly ironic to say "its dehumanizing!!" to say to a man that his treatment of women makes him a lesser being with the amount of abuse, neglect, and forced labor women are expected to take on by the men "dehumanized" here.


I think he's making a sarcastic statement about the revealing of sexist men, who think that, "because they are men, they are superior" when reality is just balancing out the ingrained sexism in all of our societies.

He's not even talking about race, so, not racist?


Racist? I agree that it's not a particularly nice thing to say, and I'll change it, to avoid triggering people, but this is a new definition of the word "racist." Thanks for educating me.


It's racist to say that people who don't believe women should have equal rights and opportunities and are equally capable as men - are neanderthals?


You're right. It insults neanderthals, who we are learning were surprisingly advanced.


Interesting, this sounds exactly like nazists rebuttal of criticism.


Have a great day, Mr. Godwin!


A racist is a racist.

Pointing to Godwin doesn't make you any less of a racist.
