'Subject to removal', means somebody had to alert it. No-one did.
Can you find me a word that better describes a person who apparently does not understand the definition of a phrase, but keeps on using the phrase in question to describe the actions of another person, against the advice of one or more other people?
I can only think of idiot.

The guy apparently wouldn't know a racist post if it kicked him in the head.
He continued calling me a racist, I called him an idiot - which is how he was acting.
I don't think I 'insulted him, called him names, and egged him on' - I think I called him an idiot once or twice after he repeatedly called me racist.
That's not name-calling, that's stating the facts.
Because when you utterly fail to understand something, it means what they have to say is wrong, and what you say is right.

The clincher though, is this :
"I call a spade a spade"
Says it all really... thanks for the summary of your grasp of the impact of ill-considered words.

Originally posted by Red Nightdid you think it was a racist sitcom? and if you did, why were you watching it?
I remember when they did that joke back on All in the Family in the early '70s.
Archie: "I call a spade a spade."
Gloria: "Daddy, you can't say stuff like that!"
Archie: "what do you call a spade?"
Cue the laugh track.
