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.
Those threads always read like an upgraded version of what a lawn-sign liberal might say: "ooh! I'll genocide myself for you! Unlimited Genocide, too! This will be the generation we fix systemic racism!" White guilt havers are willing to grovel, but not willing to put in any work. And then the hiding behind "it was a joke bro, just a prank." It's a big reason why I don't post on this site more often.
