\u201cEverybody begs for Batman \u2013 until they wake up under Batman’s\u00a0thumb.\u201d<\/p><\/div>I’ve been meaning to mock Glenn Kelman and Redfin for its commissions hypocrisy, so forgive me my diversions:<\/p>\n

Redfin, a national real estate brokerage currently under investigation for undeniable anti-black disparate-impact redlining, is today making claims about primarily black and primarily white neighborhoods<\/a> \u2013 the latter type being where you can get a Redfin Offers offer.<\/p>\n

It ain’t easy being racist about being racist, so, of course, Redfin capitalizes “Black” and lowercases “white.” Nothing like granting ornamental trinkets to the folks you’re screwing over.<\/p>\n

Racists are the people who talk about race all the time, so Kelman and Redfin definitely qualify. Redfin seems to be committed to hurting people, more than anything else: Using false narratives to inhibit the progress of people \u2013 of every color \u2013 who respond appropriately to reality. Which, of course, is exactly what they’re doing about commissions, too \u2013 hurting people wise enough to avoid them.<\/p>\n

Glenn Kelman has posting privileges on BloodhoundBlog, but I would love to see an honest defense of his company’s spastic bigotry here or anywhere: How does deliberately hurting people help anyone?<\/p>\n
