Sorry Andy, but I’m not having it. I didn’t say or imply anything racist. If others project racism because she has a French surname* that isn’t on me.
I thought her surname sounds posh and - for me - that fits with dressage and having the point of view that one can get away with abusing said horses and don’t listen to the plebs.
She might not be aristocratic (poor choice of word by me), but she clearly comes from wealth. Her mum traded ponies FFS.
Feels like a pile-on tbh. Because I chose to punch up. Can’t we punch up anymore?
*my mum’s maiden name is French FWIW
Two minutes of basic internet research would tell you that she isn't aristocratic, she didn't even attend a fee paying school.
If you want to avoid being called a racist, maybe you could a) do some research and b) not make ambiguous statements inferring racism.
