Let me see if I understand The Isabel Situation:
Isabel writes an article that's an equivalent of the following,
"My colleague wrote a nasty piece saying colored people are dirty, smelly criminals. I disagree. I even have a colored friend. I think colored people need help. There's a policy that is very helpful and should be pursued further. It's called slavery. Slavery works. We know it works because we can see all the pictures and books and films and accounts written by helpful journalists like me in which the colored people are cheerfully singing in the fields and doting on their master's children. This policy gives colored people a chance to be happy, with productive work and a roof over their heads. I'm sure my friend and other colored people would love to be able to have useful work and a home that would get them off welfare and out of public housing. These people are not smelly criminals, they just need help. The problem is that sometimes colored people get uppity and start complaining too much about the treatment they get. That doesn't help the situation. People don't want to help uppity ungrateful colored people. Colored people need to be gentler, quieter, and less scary if they want people to support their cause."
Not surprisingly, a very few people wrote back the equivalent of, "Isabel, you're an idiot. You know nothing about black people, slavery, or the issues facing black people today. Why don't you get educated before you write dangerous nonsense about topics you don't understand at all."
Isabel comes back with
"You People are SO ungrateful! Good luck finding sympathetic journalists willing to write about You People. If You People can't be properly appreciative of our efforts I don't see any reason to stick up for you."
Isabel, I'm sorry to have to be the one to tell you this, but your panties are showing.
