Reblogging myself for those who didn’t see last night.

This is for POC that still don’t get it. I pity yall, so we’ll try this again.
- “I don’t see color.” - I don’t give a fuck about realizing my white privilege or the challenges you face because you are not white. I am saying this in a deceptive way to make it sound like I’m not racist, but in fact, what eventually happens goes as follows.
:sees disproportion in color on college campuses - well those niggers must be lazy or stupid, or both, because I got here!
:sees disproportion in arrests against the general population - well, those niggers must be dangerous criminals, because I obeyed the law and police officers don’t bother me.
- “I have Black People in my family/as friends.”- My racism is so apparent that I have to resort to the measure of bringing up a cousin by marriage on my aunt’s husband’s stepson’s side or a guy my science teacher made me do a project with as evidence that I don’t discriminate against Black People. And you know, slave masters and colonizers totally didn’t procreate with their victim.
- “There’s a Black History Month, but no White History Month” - So, get this lawls! We actually do have a White History Month, but we’re just so fucking selfish that we decided to branch it off into subcategories (German, Italian, Polish, Italian, etc.) but you know, we’re still going to play the victim role here. Also, you have plenty of history that we either neglect or steal, so we’re just going to not discuss you in any of our history books, but get mad when you actually try to celebrate the history of yours that we’ve distorted.
- “Not all White People are Like That” - Du U SEE WHUT I DID HERE!? I just made myself the victim, even though you’re the one in pain. And clearly, you don’t think all White People are like that, because if you did, you wouldn’t even be wasting your breath with me anyways, but I’m still going to pretend you generalized against White People. I don’t like to listen to your pain, it’s not fun, so I’m just going to shut you up. Good luck with your shitty life, come back when you have nice things to say about White People, okay?
- “I’m not Racist, but (insert racist shit here)” - So, obviously I am a racist because I just said something incredibly racist, but totally don’t want to take the title racist, so guess what, I’m just gonna say I’m not a racist and hope you’re stupid enough to believe me. Don’t call me out though, you see, we have this thing called Reverse Racism that we made up and we’re gonna use that on you.
- “That’s Reverse Racism” - Although my reasons for disliking you are completely about my belief that you’re inferior and your reasons are out of being made inferior, I’m going to call them the same thing. I’m going to tell you that Affirmative Action is an example of Reverse Racism, but get this, Affirmative Action was created to level out the centuries upon centuries that I have had a head start in comparison to you and it hardly exists anymore, but I’m still going to use it.
- “You can say nigga, but not me, that’s not fair” - Neither is the fact that I’m much less likely to get pulled over by the police and I can be a felon and still have a better chance at getting hired against your crime-free record, but hey, this isn’t about me! I’m more concerned with taking the one thing you can do that I can’t, which by the way, came out of centuries of oppression and cruelty. I don’t like that you can use a word that has historically hurt you, but I can’t use the same word, even though I’m the one who used it to hurt you.
- “Appropriation? No, I just love your culture.” - I just really saw some cute headband feather shit at Urban Outfitters and was completely unaware that it was your culture until you pointed it out. But keeping up with a summer trend is way more important than your people and the sacred meanings behind your accessories. come fall, new shit is gonna be out and your culture is going to be in my trash can but hey , I’m still appreciating you! Feel appreciated, damnit!
In other words you want to be coddled and have people go “OH YOU POOR THING BEING PART OF A DISCRIMINATED RACE HOW SAD”.
You know what? I legitimately didn’t and still don’t really see colour. People are fucking people and the only way racism is going to really end is if it stops being a thing you have to talk about all the time.
“Reverse Racism” does exist, it’s just called, you know, RACISM. I have seen people try to play the “THEY’RE BEING RACIST BOOHOO” card when they do things. A kid on my bus in middleschool bashed two kids heads together, giving one a nosebleed, and everyone saw it. You know what his sister said in defense? “Well, they’re racist!” I HAVE had people be shitty to me on account of me just being white.
Some of these things CAN be said by racists, but you know what? YOU’RE MAKING A GENERALIZATION. You’re the one fostering negative stereotypes of legitimate statements. IN ADDITION, you’re taking this out of context. We’re to assume that any time anyone says those things, it’s automatically racist? NO. It definitely depends on what the person said before that! What if someone had said “All white people are assholes” before the reverse racism statement or the one about not all white people?
Or what about the friends? What if someone’s being irrationally accused of racism when one of their BEST FRIENDS are black and they honestly don’t give a shit about race? If they’re just pointing out the fact that they obviously don’t have a problem?
Did you know women are also discriminated against? That they get lower wages than men, and if you listed many womens rights in the old days side by side with slaves, it’d be the same fucking thing? Did you know Athiests are more discriminated against than any race or religion in the United States?
It’s not like you’re the only people being discriminated against.
What you’re saying is that anyone who doesn’t favour you and sympathize and tell you they’re SO SORRY FOR BEING WHITE is racist.
You know, I wasn’t gonna reply to this. But I’m done with my homework and thrashing stupid motherfuckers is always a pleasure of mine, so why not? Okay, so where do I begin to dissimilate this fucktard response?
First of all, let’s rid the notion that I’m looking for sympathy, because considering that historically Black people get absolutely no motherfucking sympathy in this world and never will, that’s about a fucking laugh and half. I especially don’t need sympathy from a dense piece of shit like you.
Moving forward, saying I don’t see color is from a place of privilege! Guess what buddy, I’d love to live in a world where color wasn’t something that’s constantly thrown in my face, but it is, so I see it, it’s kinda like .. not a fucking choice ya know? If you don’t want to, that’s great, stay ignorant. There was really no fucking point of you reblogging my post then! Not interested, don’t have it on your blog? Seems simple, right? I guess it wasn’t for you.
Nope you’re wrong. You’re thinking of prejudice, not Racism, oh simple one. All people can be prejudiced. Ya see how there’s two different words for it!? Huh? DO ya see it? Cuz you’re pretty stupid, so I have to repeat myself. One signifies more strength than the other. I can be prejudiced against a White person, but it won’t get me very far. Have a White person be prejudiced towards me, however, alongside with their upperhand in America, that might mean some really bad stuff! And LOL, I really don’t give a fuck about your stupid, tangential little story. Contrary to popular belief, all Black People don’t know each other, nor are they alike, so what do they have to do with me?
Aww, that’s cute, you tell me a story about random Black people (thus generalizing, cuz I guess all us Negroes sho do act alike) and tell me I’m making some of my own. I’m not making a generalization, please direct me to where I said all White People said this? Because they don’t, some just happen to be mroe intelligent than you. What happened here is you feel slighted because you say this shit. I’m telling you what this means when a Person of Color hears it. These are all dismissive, derailing tactics by people who feel uncomfortable by the topic of racism. People of Color related to this, THAT’S WHY IT GOT SO MANY NOTES. Are you going to tell the 800+ who wholeheartedly agreed with this that they’re generalizing too? Because I’d love to see you try.
Awww, women are discriminated against too?! YOU DON’T FUCKING SAY!!!!!!! Being a woman, I surely wouldn’t have known that! And I guess in your lovely fucking world, Black women just don’t exist now do they!?!??!?! GOSH. Black and Woman are mutually exclusive you guys, new revelation of the night! LOL AT THE ATHEIST COMMENT, given that I’m an Atheist! I love how you just mentioned each one of my characteristics without possibly thinking that they all might exist in one person.
.. and again, please direct me to where I said only Black People face discrimination? I’ll wait!
It’s racism no matter what race it is.
I wasn’t saying all people of colour will pull the racism card when faced with a crime. I’m saying it happens. I’m saying it’s not an automatic assumption that every single black person is totally innocent, just like it’s not an automatic assumption that every white person is totally innocent.
You’re the one generalizing white people out of context. You’re the one generalizing my statement when I addressed genuine concerns. I didn’t see colour because I saw people instead, and I grew up in a small community where there was no discrimination. Now, out of that community, I don’t see blacks being discriminated against, I see people being discriminated against for having darker skin.
If Blacks didn’t get sympathy, there wouldn’t be specific scholarships for them. You’re asking for people to always act like they have an unfair advantage and being sorry for you with your lot in life.
By saying when someone tells you “Not all white people are like that” they’re being racist, you’re not allowing them to protest an unfair judgment about themselves. The entire post implies that any time ANYONE says these things, they’re being racist by default. You’re not specifying that sometimes it doesn’t mean it, sometimes it doesn’t apply to the context: In other words, the text itself is a generalization. Whether or not your intent was to generalize is not something I can determine, but the text in front of me was generalized.
As for the fact that you are an athiest woman, the chances were low and it happened to be in that way.
For the record, I reblogged because I was genuinely offended by your generalizations, as someone who is often discriminated against for being a woman and an athiest and is sick and tired of it. I was mortified that this post was being passed along on my dashboard and nobody was speaking up against it. It was for the benefit of my friends and followers.
- We supported his Taliban for a decade, and hunted him for another.
- Obama toppled Gaddafi? Fuck you. Just… Fuck you.
- Apparently Obama controls the weather.
- There was never going to be another depression.
- Thanks for the trans-fats, you corporate ass-jockey.
Actually we are in the worst economic slump since the great Depression.
So, we kinda are in a depression. Just nobody’s saying it.
This is for POC that still don’t get it. I pity yall, so we’ll try this again.
