I feel like that article was just a bunch of more or less hypothetical scenarios where X did Y and then some other characters being in "our time" and yada yada.

I still have no idea what JonTron did, I guess he said something racist ... somewhere?



He had a debate that was cast on Twitch. Pretty good overview here (the subreddit is clearly hostile to Jon's opinions, but the original post is quality):

A major highlight:

> We've gotten rid of discrimination in our western countries. If you don't think we've gotten rid of discrimination, you're living in a fantasy land.


Thank you! The first sentence and the first 5 seconds of the video gave me a better overview than anything else.


Only if statistics are racist.
