> Personally I think white people should consider not trying to speak to experiences they have never even come close to having.

Personally, I don't think anybody should be trying to speak to experiences they have never come close to having.

> Sure, but a white man posing as a gay black man his Twitter account with his picture is bizarre.

"Yes, but" statements are not counter-arguments.

Sure it is possible. But this post is not about a gay black man, it is about a white man posing as a gay black man. Trying to stay on point and not stray into non relevant hypothetical statements. Unfortunately people stray into areas they have no business. In fact the majority of social issues are generally people out of their depth of knowledge and understanding trying to impose the so called personal judgement.

I am sorry. I am confused. I responded to a post that said:

> In the past, I saw a right-wing Reddit account that said something about being a gay black man.

> Went back in their comments a bit, and they talked about having a wife and kids.

with:

> I am sure it is possible to be a gay black man and at the same time be married with kids.

My response was to a comment, not to the original post. The comment set the context for my reply.
