Igniting racial flames is loved by the people in power. But it’s touching that class issue that transcends race where the problem lies. Because we far outnumber the rich. We forget that when we’re only looking at the skin color of everyone else in our class. Such a shame Dave became a tool for those fuckers when he became one of them.

He was pointing out social issues and racism and its stereotypes .

Now he's just denying the existence of a minority.
