Most importantly Izon knows I’m sorry.

You have absolutely no reason to apologize TW. Absolutely none. Nobody can blame you.
And I’m so very very sorry.
Your violent actions were a result of my behavior. And what impressive actions they were, to put it mildly. I’ve never been kicked in the head with an iron boot before. It was an eye-opening experience, at least for the moment. Because my eyes are now swollen shut. That, and this constant throbbing pain and cranial damage will be a persistent reminder of the pain that I have caused and how I must now atone for my wrongs.
I’ve been informed by my white friends that my previous apologies were extremely tone-deaf. That they don’t even begin to account for all the posts of oppression and the immense hurt that they have caused. That all of my posts which I thought were just a celebration of my Mulatto heritage were seen as posts of intolerance and hate. That my posts to TW came off as mocking and spiteful. Even though he’s half black, like me, he doesn’t identify as mulatto. And I’ve treated him as inferior. Which I should not. Even though he lacks intelligence. Which is evident in his posts.
Not to mention the history of oppression that my people have engaged in. It seems that I come from a long heritage of hate. I’ve also been told that my organization, Leading Mulattos For Advanced Obsecration, or LMFAO, has been designated as hateful and racist, and needs to be dismantled. And my organization honoring my heritage, Pride In Mulatto People, or PIMP, needs to be shut down as well. And my law group, Muleys Stand Firm, must be dissolved. And I can completely understand. I have been the oppressor. I have no right to be proud of my heritage. Or of who I am. And I can not profit from it, nor defend it. I must now be castigated and feel nothing but shame.
I am now entering sensitivity and diversity training, where I will learn how to be more accepting of lesser people such as TW. That I need to elevate him above myself. To show him that he is much more valuable and worthy than others perceive him to be. That he truly matters.
This is all on me.
And I am so incredibly sorry.
I can do better.
I must do better.
But we all know better…
