Yet we all know if the show was named "Dear Black People", the world would implode*

Not talking about the content of the show because frankly I'm not interested in it but the name itself.

Because DWP's content shows why it's an inappropriate phrase and is critical of black people with those views, while someone that would write a show and call it DBP is a lot more likely to make something extremely offensive.

Ignore when people say that the title length is not important, that a title should just convey what the game is about. They're just jealous theirs isn't as long

Racism against white peoples isn't a thing. Neither is sexism against men, btw. These are systematic power constructs and culturally punching up is self defense

I can take a joke but you all know damn well if it was the other way around, nobody would be taking the joke regardless of the content.

It's a good show. Stop being a racist little snowflake and exit your safe space to watch an episode. Or stop pretending you can have an opinion about it or its title.

You're trying too hard to troll.

The show apparently makes fun of how hypersensitive and how hypocritical liberals can be from what I've been told about it.

I expected the same as you tbh. But I had an open mind and watched an extended trailer. It explained it, and while I'm not interested in it, it made sense and looked like it makes fun(for lack of a better word) of both sides.

Dear White People is the name of a radio show.

Thank you for having the sense to figure that out.
