Pro tip: lot of tweets require you to acknowledge that implied “TO ME” that isn’t written in it. They work better when you just append the tweet yourself for them. Them: “XYZ comedian was never funny…” Just say it for them “TO ME” and keep it moving. Saves us all the time.

Please don’t revise the history of who Hank Aaron was to be comfortable. He did not ignore racism. He did not solve racism. He existed despite racism. He fought and pushed back against racism. And many who “love” him today know people who would have spit on him. That’s reality.
