saying something this edgy does not absolve you of bigotry

edit: for anyone stumbling into the drama, i probably should have elaborated on this post. I am not saying you can't make fun of white people not being able to eat spicy food or anything, but at some point it becomes self-flagellating. to quote comrade RedQuestionAsker:

It's good to challenge white supremacy in all of its incarnations at all time. It's certainly good to refuse to be proud to be white considering what the concept of whiteness is.

It's another thing to performatively hate yourself in a cocktail of millennial self-deprecation and liberal white guilt. It's not revolutionary, and it's probably not good for you.

that is all. comrades just know i dont hate any of you. i'm not trying to start a slapfight. i just saw this as weird performative behavior and wanted to call it out.

    I'm not white and I think it's a good thing, because 90% of white people go pigmask-off when you actually start talking about eurocentrism, physical material, and the fact that their special snowflake status didn't materialize out of thin air or the "superior quality of their spirit" or some other euromystical witchcraft shit dressed up as pseudoscience, but rather from the fact that they lucked out by finding two megacontinents of free shit

    If a white person is unbothered by some racial self-flagellation it's a good indicator that they don't have a massive ego based on vicariously identifying with their race, AKA are "one of the good ones" (And let's be honest, there's a lot, a looooot of bad ones out there, some very bad hombres!)

    Also, the entire rest of the english-speaking internet is filled with racist jokes about every other race EXCEPT white people, and you get censored/downvoted/banned if you ever do make such jokes about the crackers (even if they're really objectively funny, I got mass downvoted for making a joke about the "mayo clinic" for example)

    so yes making fun of white people is good. I am not white.

        well it's only funny if a white person says it

        the comedic value being that they're so impossible that even "their own kind" are sick of them

        Sorry if that struck anyone as racist, but white people told me that I'm not physically capable of being racist, and who am I to argue with lord cracker

      i agree in a lot of ways, but as comrade RedQuestionAsker said there's a line between making fun of the concept of whiteness, not identifying it, mocking people who do and sometimes people who dont. but that's entirely seperate from this imo. i think that "let's genocide all of the white people" crosses that line

      but yeah you're right.
