      You’re right! You know what I could have said instead?

      Who could have guessed that the rich white South African would turn out to be a white supremacist?

      See the flaw in using too few words?

        I don’t see any flaw. The meaning of that sentence is very clear.

        If the post lead with that then maybe there wouldn’t be any complaints.

          It literally DOES start with that! That’s the top level comment, word-for-word, which at least two people were too thick to understand. So yes, I gave a longer explanation, like I apparently must also provide to you.
