They're also using the analogy to mean endogenics are the same as what, slave owners? The decedents of slave owners who wish for the "good old days"?
Everything you said is true and the analogy is gross and dangerous for so many many reasons and I don't know if Entropy ever apologized for it but I certainly hope they did or at least got called out
because not only are the situations not comparable at all but it's incredibly offensive to people who ARE hurt by the confederate flag and the people who fly it
Also as someone mentally/physically ill AND Jewish I'm really so tired of people trying to have these medical diagnoses handed down by unaffected professionals as cultural identities that can be appropriated from like.... I'm sorry you chose to do that and are now being hurt but I promise it's not the same! I promise!!
