Sadly the bleeding obvious isn't always obvious to everyone.

@keithlenclark @0100110010110 sound waves are readily verifiable. Don't confuse invisibility with non existence.

Well that's a bit rich I would've thought... https://t.co/Q1QYB9h1MY

Cardinal George Pell demands investigation into how allegations of child abuse against him were made public. https://t.co/hdrfSaKS4k #9News

@KatieBellTM @moxey25 but I long for a world where such a simple act done without malice doesn't stir such emotion

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

@KatieBellTM @moxey25 I completely recognize & agree with your citing the historical significance of black face painting...

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

@KatieBellTM @moxey25 particularly Twitter! I'm honestly saddened by the reaction to one girl's innocent/naive/ignorant costume ..

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

@KatieBellTM @moxey25 thank you for your time and considered responses.

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

@KatieBellTM @moxey25 absolutely. But it seems to me the masses are quick to condemn any cross-cultural characterization as "racist".

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

@KatieBellTM @moxey25 hopefully there's still room in society for imitation to be a celebration of diversity, not racially derogatory.

[Tim Minchin @timminchin]

Maybe I'll post it bit by bit on twitter. 300 tweets oughta do it.

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

@WattoTony @creativemercury definitely

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

@prestontowers no I think that will aggravate the problem.

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

@WattoTony @creativemercury well put. Undoubtably there is warranted offense but I'm also fascinated by what I see as a rush to be offended.

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

@prestontowers there's a cure for myopia these days.

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

@prestontowers incorrect again. I've made concessions to a couple other people who've respectfully raised relevant points

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

I'm Filipino actually. How racist of you to assume I'm white. https://t.co/RCp5HcO58g

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

@prestontowers more projection. No, honestly Im interested in both sides of this debate but it's so nuanced this appears a poor forum for it

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

@creativemercury i agree

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

@creativemercury I know. I was referring to your "all people of colour" comment. I don't find it offensive but maybe I'm the wrong colour

[Captain Obvious @ObviousCapn]

@creativemercury fair point.
