> Please don't pick the most provocative thing in an article or post to complain about in the thread. Find something interesting to respond to instead.
That works as long as there is not a pervasive trend to push the 'provocative thing', also as long as the 'provocative thing' is not something that would be totally off-limits if applied to a different group or category. Imagine an article which complained about thing X being a representation of blackness in a negative context and decide for yourself whether you would consider it in the same light.
