Dismissal of pain and drug seeking accusations are two sides of the same coin.

No one is 'turning' anything into an identity issue. You don't get to say 'I don't see color' and then pretend that systemic discrimination doesn't exist.

Your lack of understanding of a real world problem doesn't make it any less real for the rest of us. Please think about the relevance of your own experiences before invalidating others'.
