People seem very quick to get outraged at any sort of mention like this, when it doesn't take much to think that he clearly meant that a white guy beardy scruffy main character has been beat to death. |
Fair enough, but then why add the description "white" at all?
What ever mental gymnastics people use to justify it - it's a racist statement, made by a writer of a major publication, which is absurd that that's even allowed - and yes I realize we're probably overrepresented in entertainment, and that as a whole, we have it pretty good in the West, but that's besides the point.
