He’s literally half black. His dad is African American

I mean they both look black. Like pretty obviously. Not sure what they see in the mirror though

Seems a weird response.

When white people call out white washing of historically non-white people in movies, the response isn't to call out the critics ethnicity, no matter how crass/vitriolic their comments might be. Calling out Tate's race in response to his post feels sorta like fighting racism with more racism.

Like what prompted you to go after his race in your response?

It's an even weirder response. given the main point of the ops post is that he's been arrested on charges of rape and trafficking. Your post could plausibly get read as "Of course he's been arrested for rape and trafficking charges, he's literally half black". Which'd make your response racist in itself.

That's not at all the point this user is making. They are saying "its hypocritical or at least ironic that a black person would put down another black person. You are the same, why are you acting like you're not black?"

I'm sorry you had to waste time typing that out.
