It’s not a false dichotomy — it’s pointing out a differing standard in conduct based on race, which is racism.

It’s also pointing out that the fundamental choice in what’s acceptable or not is dumb: someone who made a mistake while young and genuinely has tried to build a better life should be welcomed into society, while criminals who continue to promote a criminal and violent lifestyle should not be.

It’s also mocking that people who talk about “social justice” are often deeply racist and unforgiving people — which perhaps could be fairly criticized for tone, but is again not a false dichotomy.

I think you point out a dichotomy that's interesting, except that I can't find any evidence that people who talk about social justice "often" support violence-inducing criminals and condemn reformed criminals who are white. This sounds like a specter manufactured to make a point about a reality that doesn't match up with the world we (or at least I) live in.

> It’s not a false dichotomy

You are creating a false reality where people can only be for "urban" gangsters and against the white CEO. Reality strongly disagrees with this and I suggest you join us on the other side instead of constantly trying to find things to be outraged about.
