I find myself amazed that no one has called out the racism inherent in this statement: ''"The reason why our country is in the mess we're in is '''simply because of whiteness.''' White supremacy. '''White people choke-holding power and sucking the life out of humanity'''".'' If that isn’t a perfect example of a glaring double standard I really don’t know what is because you can swap out the words white for any other ‘race’ and it would be a totally abhorrent statement roundly condemned. If there’s a mess it’s because people can actually get away with making this kind of a comment.

HIV status
I have noted Porter's HIV status in this article, based on a report in The Hollywood Reporter. I'd not usually treat them as a very reliable source, at least for breaking news, but Porter has linked to the article from his verified Twitter account, suggesting it is accurate. ◦ Trey Maturin 15:58, 19 May 2021 (UTC)

Promoting racist views.
I find myself amazed that no one has called out the racism inherent in this statement: "The reason why our country is in the mess we're in is simply because of whiteness. White supremacy. White people choke-holding power and sucking the life out of humanity". If that isn’t a perfect example of a glaring double standard I really don’t know what is because you can swap out the words white for any other ‘race’ and it would be a totally abhorrent statement roundly condemned. If there’s a mess it’s because people can actually get away with making this kind of a comment. 96.246.137.168 (talk) 21:52, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
