    YEAH! Fuck me because of something my great great grandpa may have done that I have never once done nor wanted to do. I’m obviously a bad person because of my skin color, you see.

    We really playing the “if some of the people your color did something bad 200 years ago all of the people your color are bad now” game? Because quite frankly I know some pretty shitty people who feel the same way you do that would love to take this opportunity to remind you that the FBI says that while african americans only make up 12% of the population they are responsible for 50% of the crime, and they feel very similarly to you that this means the entirety of black people are criminals.

    OR we could realize both you and those racists are objectively some of the stupidest people in the fucking world and should shut right the fuck up with their racism and your prejudice.

    And now I’m going to exit lemmy for a few hours and go eat more ethnic food with my ethnic friends and have a good time while you wallow in hatred both self- and prejudicial, and there’s not one fucking thing you can do to stop us.

      Everyone who is alive today is descended from slave owners, thieves, rapists, murderers, conquerors and oppressors. They are also all descended from people who were the victims of slavery, theft, rape, murder, conquest and oppression. If people are responsible for the actions of their ancestors, then we are all guilty of damn near everything, and it’s basically just original sin without all the Catholicism.

        Do y’all have the reading compression of a fruit fly or is it an instinct to play the victim role every time the word white is mentioned? No where did I ascribe intergenerational blame.

          I was responding to someone else’s post which was discussing intergenerational blame. I’m sorry if this made you feel like you weren’t the center of attention for 2 seconds. But I’m sure if you keep being an asshole to random strangers on the internet you’ll eventually fill that void.

      Good to know you can so easily trigger a color blind yt. Never said I hate you because of what your grandpa did. I just find it dumb how offended people get if a marginalized group isn’t ready yet to fully integrate after generations of trauma. What I said was a jab at a systemic phenomenon, not a behavior of any one individual. But good to know what a ethical grass toucher you are, very relevant.

        Yeah yeah, “I was only being prejudice for the lolz I’m really the nicest ever”

        Heard that before. You my Uncle Steve? Thing is, he’s lying to himself too.

            You think it’s “traumatic” having a racist uncle who I’m using to make fun of you for being prejudice? Lol I just think he’s as stupid as you, doesn’t affect me much really, you must be the biggest pussy in the world who’s never had any real problems if you think that’s traumatic.

                No, I won’t, I’ll continue comparing you to him as long as you continue being comparable to him. You’re choosing to do this to yourself, you could stop A) commenting, or B) being a prejudice piece of shit, but seemingly you’re unable to do either.
