white people don't get offended by race because our race does not define us

I'm a white person and I can't say I would find any of that - or just the thought of it - particularly offensive. Because the nature of the offense of cultural appropriation is a lot more complicated than simply "lets highlight a bunch of wacky stereotypes" and "wacky stereotypes are offensive". The stereotypes are…

Well done! Or we could just make fun of lutefisk.

One time a racist troll told me that it was offensive to cast Idris Elba as Heimdall in the Thor movies because it was appropriation of Nordic culture. I thought that was pretty hilarious. He then proceeded to tell me that I was a traitor to my people because I have Norwegian and Swedish ancestry and was not the…

I dunno, I think the comments are legit, I mean they say in the video, "Does any of this make you feel uncomfortable?" Well no it doesn't and that's the point. I mean I would go to that party, its kinda funny, as making fun of powerful groups often is. Although I dunno maybe I'm just not the target audience and people…

Yeah ... Add to that, "You need to be more like us" is a well-established tenet of white supremacy. I don't see a counterpoint here.

I want to hold a Northerner party where we all wait around for the heating oil guy while drinking Narragansett and not talking about feelings.

Yeah def would play Edward Pinot Grigio Hands

I'm white. I laughed. Most of the things mentioned in the video I found to be goofy, not offensive, and it's stuff that we already make fun of ourselves for.

None of that would offend me, and why should it white people don't get offended by race because our race does not define us(nobody defines white people by their race except when it comes to dancing) you have to go after our ethnicity to have any chance of insulting us.(and even that will not work if the person you are…

Kara, do you keep a tally of people who accuse/think/tell you that you're white on Jezebel? Because you should.

Two things. One, I 100% want to play Edward Chardonnay Hands. Actually, and this says so many (not good) things about me, can we make it Edward White Zin Hands? Two, since when is it not acceptable to stay home and watch Netflix?

Those are totally different. They're rich people making fun of poor people and they're tacky as hell.

"Would any of that make you feel uncomfortable?"

It's hilarious that you made an account to show us how stupid you are.

Your one anecdote literally mirrors the same anecdote I've heard from every single black person I've ever had this kind of conversation with, shared a look with when realizing one of our white friends is doing something to place us squarely in danger from the cops, or known, frankly.

It's not even the white kids, it's their parents. I went to a very mixed high school, and a lot of my fellow white, middle class (or higher) classmates would talk publicly—hell, once they did it in front of a teacher and got pissed when he pointed out he had to report it—that their parents always let them get super…

Fuck. :(

Whenever my white friends told me about how they smoked pot all the time, all I could think of is what my dad told me:
Don't do drugs. Don't break any laws. Don't do anything that the police can arrest you for, because they will have no mercy on you.

White kids don't feel this way. They blatantly would smoke pot in…
