The idea of representation seems kind of racist to me. Saying one black person represents all black people is saying black people are a homogenous mass of thoughtless drones, but here’s the problem: they’re not. They all have different goals and interests. The only person anyone can really represent is themselves.

There are definitely undertones of racism and prejudice in these types of conversations. I can understand an impulse to push a group forward but I agree, these things get out of hand quickly.
I agree. Everything becomes a game to attack the opponent and up your standing in the social world. thank you for bringing a level headed intelligent conversation to the Steem platform.
