As Twitchy reported earlier, Shaun King went on a Twitter rampage at sports writer Jason Whitlock after Whitlock had the nerve — the nerve! — to criticize him and the #BlackLivesMatter movement.
Among other things, Whitlock tweeted this at King:
You're white. Don't claim it. I'm black. Love it. Who's the sellout? https://t.co/rWALecQZXq

We predicted that the fight wasn’t over then — and it looks like we were right. King embarked on a long stream of tweets to defend his black identity:

After all that, Whitlock only had one thing to say:
