Absolutely not. Every time someone tries this, I point out how it biases against Black speech. Every. Time. 🤷🏿‍♂️ Also from the launch of the Perspective API and its "toxicity" score.

The mistake is to think Zelensky could have salvaged this. Trump admin just doesn’t want to support Ukraine. Period. There was also never going to be a peace agreement. That’s been clear but everyone has been pretending otherwise. There can be no confusion now.
