I know where you’re coming from here. I’m from the Deep South, and in my town, the perception is mostly this awful self-reinforcing thing where every white person shares the “lazy black person” stereotype when they do see it happen (conveniently ignoring the lazy white people, of course), and that makes especially the…

Don’t drag beef jerky into this. Beef jerky is pure and wholesome. It hates no one and can be eaten by people of all colors and creeds. We should all aspire to be as good as beef jerky.

That joke makes me laugh so much, I had to go look it up.

“To be fare...”

Cue the “but I just personally don’t find her funny” garbage. And the comments about her body (positive or negative) or how she’s annoying.

A woman negotiates, 90% of the public responds with personal attacks. How do they know how unfunny she is in all of her specials if they are not watching her specials?

Yeah...back in the 30s and 40s (and all the way back to the 1890s) they called it Lebensraum. They say they just want what’s theirs, but eventually, they come around to the idea that everything is theirs.

Fuck it.

I’m pretty much already there with you—as in, I’ve been constantly making a version of this point about white men’s disproportionate influence on media during and since the 2016 election: “It’s not as though media, in which men remain the overwhelming majorities of people who assign, edit, write, and talk about the…

Sunburns tell them this land is not their own, in addition to the brutal, arrogant history of Manifest Destiny.

I’d be cool with it if they left and found an uninhabited rock in the Arctic circle to create their own fascist nation state. The problem with white separatists is that they want to take countries that were built by all races and kick everyone else out. If you want to get a divorce from the human race, that’s fine,…

A lot of them have either learned to keep it quiet or have the leaders of the movement pushing them to keep it quiet. And believe me, nothing is funnier than watching a bunch of pricks who partly joined something just to be “anti-PC” fighting over how PC they have to act to accomplish their goals.

I can’t speak to what OP is saying, but from what I understand, a lot of white nationalists don’t consider people of color inferior (or, more accurately, they DO consider PoC inferior, they’ve just figured out that it’s a bad idea to come out and say so). Instead, they insist that they want a white-only nation because…

Aesthetic as in: black people are ugly? ha ha ha because that is racist. Aesthetic as in: my town looks better without Mexicans? because oh news of the hour: that’s fucking racist too!

It really can be both. This, of all things, is not an either-or kind of situation.

“...one based on their own [*racist interpretation of*] their experiences with people of color.” Let’s not put the cart before the horse. The construction of your sentence makes it sound like they are basing their “argument” on something experiential and/or logical when, as white people, they will have had many more…

You know there’s that old joke, that during WW2 there was an army base in the American South, and a woman in the area, a very wealthy woman, called up the base and said she wanted to host a dinner for some of the servicemen, but she asked for “no Jews, please,” and so her request was obeyed. She opened her door to 4…

I thought Elle Reeve did an all right job in what was surely a deeply discomforting experience, but I think she had a misstep pretty early on in the piece that a reporter who was a POC probably wouldn’t have made (of course, they may also not have had the access). I don’t remember the precise moment, but Cantwell was…

Both POCs and whites should cover them. The vast majortiy of white people won’t have the command on race that a black person might, but they might get more material from their subjects.
