@shyam_ala @NAChristakis @aashaik16 @monicacbell @SajaSpearman To me, the text itself has a clear ambiguity: reading it without knowing the intent of the author, it is unclear whether he intends or doesn't intend to evoke the racial associations that some but not all people have or are even aware of with regard to "trap house." — PolitiTweet.org

@shyam_ala @NAChristakis @aashaik16 @monicacbell @SajaSpearman The argument I've made is that, regardless of whether the email was offensive or not, the response of administrators was abusive, for reasons I laid out in detail. So my position doesn't turn on offensiveness either way. But let's turn to that now. — PolitiTweet.org

@shyam_ala @NAChristakis @aashaik16 @monicacbell @SajaSpearman I personally was unaware of the racial connotations. I'd only heard the term in the context of Chapo Trap House. I've also asked around to a bunch of Gen Z folks, who were ignorant of that meaning/connotation, and others who thought it was obvious and widely known. — PolitiTweet.org
