Lol damn that Kineth dude always comes off angry


I don't think I was coming off angry earlier in the topic. Your ankle-biting hyperbole is without merit.


If you were an outside observer of your own posts, not just in this topic but in general, I dont think you would say my hyperbole was without merit, but thats just my opinion.


It's possible that I get angry with people who, like you, are trying to antagonize me. It's just that you're being weirdly passive aggressive about it.

Whoa now, look at me coming off as angry. *eye roll* Just yesterday, you said I was condescending. You're not a very reliable source and just want to be shitty in my direction. Begone.

It's hard to be white these days. People automatically think you are racist and have some sort of privilage that all white people are rich or have a get out of jail free card stuffed in our wallet.


This worries me too :(

I guess we can thank 45 for that

You have really bad social skills if you're literally projecting your desire that you really have no interest in onto me, replete with hypocrisy. In fact, all you've been doing in this topic is expressing whatever pent up anger you have at me and have the nerve to criticize me.

When did I say I had no interest? Unlike you, I dont keep responding to someone and at the same keep saying I dont care about their opinion, Im not a hypocrite like that. I just wanted to make a random snide comment to you as a way of returning the favor to when you made a random snide condescending comment to me. Dont say shit to others and they wont say shit to you, pretty simple.

To be fair, Obama hated us as well, or at least thats what the families of countless innocent Muslims killed by his drone campaign feel. Its hard to support an American President thats not a Muslim hater.

I learned about race at 5 years old when my white girlfriend had to break up with me because her dad told her that "white and black people shouldn't associate like that." That's also how I learned about race.

Son, you're the bully and you're abusive and you probably wish that guy was your father. Her mom divorced him shortly after, likely due to him being a shitty human.

Also, why are you posting in a topic about minorities if all you're doing is playing pauvre blanco?

I met a couple (racists) when I was in school. It's been over 20 years ago. One of them was pretty upfront about it. He was a holocaust lover and he made up songs about Nazis killing allies and Jews. He was a hardcore atheist with more of the anti-theist/angstheist aspect going on as well.

Another annoying thing about him was that he was actually smart. He took all advanced classes and made straight A's. You couldn't just point and laugh at the dumb hillbilly hick, because he was probably smarter than you on an academic scale.

He was definitely one of the Aryan supremacist type of people. I grew up in a hillbilly dominated area, and they couldn't even stand him when he started going on his rants.

Having that feeling in the back of your head you need to act or look a certain way to help sway the negative perception of your race or not be judged by it.

Pretty general statement that can encompass a lot of things. One of the reasons I was never allowed to have cornrows and any type of braids growing up. Mom didn't want to give unnecessary attention my way.

People where I lived had insecurities about hairstyles. I had long hair, and people felt uncomfortable around me because of it.

People really do judge you on your appereance. It's the first impression and sometimes it's a kneejerk judgement that they make.

Like, people AUTOMATICALLY assumed that I was into drugs, just because of my appearance. It was a false assumption based soley on the way I looked.

Its awesome!!!

You get to take pride in your race without fear or persecution.

People assume you are poor because of racism and not because bad personal choices.

You can wealthy without people assuming your wealth was handed to you or that you exploited others.

You can commit violent crimes against another race without people assuming you're racist.

You get Affirmative Action which advances you in jobs or colleges based on your skin color.

You can be overrepresented in certain fields without people trying to amend it.

You get to blame any of your shortcomings or failures on racism.
