@turtlepower I dunno about sexist, but he's being a dick. Which is in character for early True, whose only real character trait was being a dick.
Before he had evolved into the later True we all love, who was an avenging angel of over-the top righteous (or sometimes extremely petty) violence.
@turtlepower @clark objectively speaking, based on looks and temperament, Mr. True is not exactly out of her league
@Rhynoplaz still, on a scale from "punishing someone for cruelty to animals" (not petty at all) to "punishing someone for wearing a hat crooked" (highly petty) I'd say that this is far closer to the "wearing a hat crooked" end of the scale.
(Yes, Everett once walloped a guy for wearing a hat at an excessively jaunty angle)
@grrgyle @thejoker954 Everett True gives no warning and no quarter. He can't be bargained with. He can't be reasoned with. He doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear!* And he absolutely will not stop till his victim has been punished in a manner wildly disproportionate to their crime!
* except fear of Mrs. True
@thejoker954 @I_Has_A_Hat whoever happens to be getting on the train deserves to be able to get on without climbing over this douchebag.
@Rolando @ShareMySims I mean, I don't think it was understood as a slur at the time. It's not like anyone in the US knew the correct endonym "Khoekhoe" and was choosing to use a different term "Hottentot" instead in order to express contempt.
But characterizing bowing as an excessively servile action characteristic of a "primitive" people is in and of itself problematic.
@Bougie_Birdie @clark Everett's pretty damn petty sometimes, this is his karma coming back to bite him.
@turtlepower it varies. Sometimes he's absolutely in the right (opposing cruelty to animals, corruption, people being selfish and mean), sometimes he's hilariously petty and ridiculous (he punches a guy for wearing his hat crooked at one point). But that's late-stage Everett, early Everett just said cruel things and then everybody around him grins or compliments him cause that's "what they were all thinking". Lame.
