Perez Hilton compares black women to Hitler on Twitter
Perez Hilton exists solely because he's really good at ruffling feathers. Still, even he should know that when you are asked to apologize for something offensive, you don't haul off and compare the offended parties to one of the worst figures in recorded history.
All this is to say that Perez compared black women to Hitler on his Twitter..
Let's recap:
Hilton tweeted that "inside every gay man is a fierce black woman" early this morning.
Inside every gay man is a fierce black woman! https://t.co/oFQHqdOHaN

This led to more than a few angry tweets.

All this backlash lead Perez to apologize like a rational adul- Nope, he pulled out Hitler.
@BertLoch Some present logical arguments, but then Hitler attempted to justify the holocaust too.
