10 Conversations On Racism I’m Sick Of Having With White People

I clicked one of the related articles:

That's epic

I propose we establish an embassy with this site to further our understanding of this issue. Preferably a three-person team consisting of Hera, Al, and a rotating third person. Kitty gets it the first month as a clear representative of white privilege.

you, sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. have you ever considered joining the dipolmatic corp?

I've never been able to figure out what white privilege is. Most of the statistical features used to illustrate white privilege are simple markers of socioeconomic status, while the concrete examples of it are long-gone instances of officially-sanctioned racial discrimination.

Ahh, POCLGBTQ, old friend.

whiny pieces of ****, are one of the hallmarks of this generation, together with fat neck-beards, BBW types, and their mirror images, MRAs, Neonazis, etc.

It must be said, though, that:
-The first group is larger than the second ( Or has more web exposure )
-While being hallmarks of this generation, they are still in the minority. Most people are not there ( although the crisis of the west is pushing people there looking for solutions ).


If there is a mark of this generation's radicals, it's being whiny.
-The current radical left (3rd-worlders, radical feminists, Foucault fans etc. ) whine about the "Big white heteromale", love anime, gender studies/ sociology majors. Whine online.
Classic example: http://microaggressions.com/

-The current radical right ( MRAs, Armchair Nazis, etc. ), whine about Jews, ******s, Muslims and Gays, love anime, community college, IT experts. Whine online.

I don't think white privilege explains KH's success. I think he cheats, lies, kisses ass etc....

[MikeH]

Most people replying to this thread are ironically displaying the behaviours he talks about in the article right?

[KrazyHorse]

Why is that ironic? The attitudes he whines about basically consist of "saying anything he disagrees with".

Listing common attacks on his position does not invalidate these attacks.

[Elok]

But he proposes such helpful alternatives!

Sadly, they don't let in the aspies. I posted a long article on wrongplanet about "Five excuses I'm sick of hearing from the diplomatic corps, and also some stuff about trains," but for some reason it didn't improve our position.

[KrazyHorse]

Tangentially, this guy sounds like a nightmare to talk to. He's a self-described hipster, he is probably a mrfun on gay issues AND on race issues he's a self-righteous ****.


I bet you he thinks that his latest art project received an unfavorable review in the Williamsburg Reader due to subconscious racism on the editorial board...

[MikeH]

Listing common attacks on his position does not invalidate these attacks.

They mostly aren't attacks on his position he's listing.

[MikeH]

tl/dr version of that article: "you can't hear Jimi"

[KrazyHorse]

Really? Read number 7. If you aren't convinced that he has demonstrated to you that racism is responsible for whatever he thinks it is responsible for, then you are on his list.

[MikeH]

Saying he "mostly doesn't" suggests that I agree he is sometimes doing that.

Someone asking to prove that racism exists is obviously a ****** though, they probably post here come to think of it.
