Let's talk statistics, false positives and confirmation bias:
Do you know that sometimes test show you have a disease when in fact you are not? Percentages vary
Unfortunately accusations of sexism, racism, ableism other -isms are a shitty test if the ones judging it are not the affected party.
So sometimes just shutting the fuck up and admitting that you most likely didn't know what you were doing wrong but are sorry is a solid strategy.
