I see what you're fishing for. Look, if you want to accuse someone of racism, just come right out and say it.



I'm not looking to accuse anyone of racism here. It just felt as though there were some underlying values being expressed in the comment that were not being stated explicitly.

I find it extremely difficult to have meaningful conversations when we obscure our values and are not transparent about our ethical reasoning. The commenter said the driver was nice but clearly didn't interact with her. "Nice" is a signifier of value and I was hoping to tease out a conversation about that.
