Car Battery Theft Discourse

someone has now stolen my car battery lol I’m so tired, can I please catch a break Please do not call the police. You could put a BIPOC's life at risk by causing a police interaction. Just buy a new battery No one said anything about race??? Well we all know it wasn’t a white person who took it. Whoever took it was in need, it’s not like they’re stealing diamonds

A social media thread shows someone complaining that their car battery was stolen. Another person argues against calling the police because a police interaction could endanger a BIPOC person, while a responder points out that race was never mentioned. The punchline is the final defensive comment, which makes an unsupported racial assumption and minimizes the theft by comparing a car battery to diamonds; it is shared as an absurd reaction to overzealous identity politics and online discourse.
