tbf, "colored" does not have at all the same history in many other countries as it does in America. in some places it is a perfectly acceptable term that people self-identify as (but, yeah, I'm pretty sure that Britain isn't one of those places). I don't think it's at all unrealistic for some people not to be aware of the negative history of the word

For some people, sure, but someone as educated as Cumberbatch? Certainly suggests he moves in limited circles and isn't very aware of the issues - and hasn't bothered reading articles (academic or simply mainstream media) by PoC.

Does that make him evil or bad, no. But rolling one's eyes at privileged obliviousness is fair enough.

Because most educated Americans are totally on the loop about all the special terminologies in the UK or Australia or Sweden!
