Does a simple observation make someone a bigot?

Would I be homophobic if I noticed that every man in a video game review series was gay?

How about, we recreate TC's obviously biased topic but this time, instead of "person of color", we replace that with "Jew"?

"Every bon appetit video since they came back has a Jew in it."
"Lol, not saying there's anything wrong with that. Just seems a little....blatant."

Doesn't that sound offensive?

Except it's kinda hard to tell someone's jew from a thumbnail alone, and Cond Nast wasn't accused of discriminating against jews.

How about this:

Bon Appetit fired all their old Jews because they didn't want to pay them that much money, and then are parading around these new, lower paid Jews.

How offensive is that?

Strange how by changing the subject from "people of color" to "Jews", now makes it offensive.

Wait, you don't think that sentence would be offensive with "people of color" instead?

I'm saying that somehow we're able to see that replacing "people of color" with "Jews" is offensive, however, we're still debating if tc's topic, worded as it is, is indeed offensive.

I mean it is absolutely worded in a way that seems somewhat offensive without context. And not to assume TC's intentions, but I read it as them being intentionally provocative because anyone who knows the actual context knows beyond a shadow of a doubt that BA is overcorrecting after being outed as racist shitbags.

But it looks like most of the posters in this topic are not aware of the context and are just commented on the wording of the topic.

Wasn't the video I saw. The one I saw had quicker edits. It was like every five seconds someone calling her over to help. Might have seen it on Twitter.

Not really. To loosely quote Bill Burr, it's not racist to say "there are a lot asians here"

It'd be racist to say "why are all these fucking asians here?!"

It's this one. It gets really cringey at times but the final two clips are really bad.

I guess it's worth noting that I'm not familiar with Bon Appetite.

From the title, I presumed it was a cooking-based web series in which a different chef teaches the viewer how to prepare a new dish each time. "I've noticed every chef since the return has been a person of color," would read a lot like somebody saying "I've noticed every substitute teacher since return to school has been a woman." It's not an inherently bigoted observation. Granted, calling it blatant is a bit unflattering regardless.

But if Bon Appetite is something which has multiple crew members, there's no reason to get annoyed at being inclusive or to even comment on it really. "I've noticed every episode of the new season of Friends has a person of color in it. That seems rather blatant."

I mean you can just go pull up their YouTube channel and look at the thumbnails for the recent videos, it's a very obvious attempt at damage control.

And nothing against the people in the videos. I watched a couple of minutes from a few of them, they all seem like really nice people, and I hope it works out for them.

Have you not read the entire topic, and why this is actually interesting instead of shooting faux witty remarks based off of the opening post?

There's context, the reason TC noted this is because the channel has racist history, and this seems like an attempt to desperately tell people "We're not racist anymore we swear!" by putting a person of color in them and putting a suspicious amount of focus on them. This wouldn't be an issue if, as mentioned before, there was no racist history.

Everybody is being way too hard on TC.

What happened:

Bon Appetit was a super successful youtube channel.

It was leaked that the people in charge were racist against all staff members of color.

Now they are back and every single person involved is a PoC saying how great the channel is.

Yes it is shameless af. Stop beating up on TC for pointing out some obvious dumbness.
