Everyone on Tumblr:  ”(Ethnicity) PRIDE!  I love my culture so much!  Everyone be proud of your roots and celebrate them!”

5 mins. later:  ”Oh, I’m so glad I’m not white!  ’White culture’ is so dry and boring and oppressive and stupid.”

Me: …

—Seriously, though.—

It’s so fucking hypocritical when people do this.  You’re all like “black pride” or “Arab pride” or whatever.  You post beautiful posts about your cultures and share wonderful pictures of people in ethnic clothes and such.

Then, you proceed to shit on white people.  All of these jokes and taunts at our expense is getting pretty annoying.  Do you know what happens if someone demeans any ethnic group other than white Europeans around here?  They’re tarred and feathered.  Make a joke about white people, and suddenly everyone loves you.

Fellow white people, listen up.  Our cultural heritage is absolutely amazing. We have made the biggest contributions to the world  in art, music, literature, and so much more.  Hell, other races take credit for their people’s inventions and contributions, so why not take credit for ours, too?  

We have the most beautiful dances and songs.  The diversity within the “white” community is something we can be proud of.  We have the most beautiful eyes of all colors.  Same goes for our hair.  We have thousand year old traditions.  We have had such an amazing influence on the world.

Yes, you’re white, but you’re no one’s joke.  Don’t forget where you come from.

Now, I bring you your daily dose of white people…

This had to be made.

Non white people:  You’re all allowed to stop being a bunch of racist pricks now.

White people:  Be proud of who you are and where you come from.  We’re no one’s joke.

I’ve got to leave for class in 5 minutes & I don’t have underwear on so I’ll make this brief.

You’ve shown pictures of people bonding over their shared nationality or ethnicity, but being white isn’t the common denominator that brings them all together.

Being proud to be white is like being proud to be heterosexual or proud to be able-bodied. You don’t deserve to be proud because you haven’t achieved anything; being white, in and of itself, hasn’t put any obstacle in your path for you to overcome.

You are *the* least insightful person I’ve ever read from & I’m crossing my fingers that you’re a troll & I was too tired to pick up on it.

Um

You’ve shown pictures of people bonding over their shared nationality or ethnicity, but being white isn’t the common denominator that brings them all together.

BECAUSE BLACK PEOPLE ARE ALL THE SAME 

THERE ARE NO DIFFERENCES IN BLACK CULTURE AT ALL

NO NATIONALITIES

NO ETHNICITIES

JUST BLACK-NESS.  THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN.

hint: that’s racism

Being proud to be white is like being proud to be heterosexual or proud to be able-bodied. You don’t deserve to be proud because you haven’t achieved anything;

SO IS BEING BLACK

in and of itself, hasn’t put any obstacle in your path for you to overcome.

IT’S NOT LIKE BLACK PEOPLE ARE THE MAJORITY ON AN ENTIRE FUCKING CONTINENT OR ANYTHING

I debated the point of arguing against a blog called “I don’t need feminism,” but I can spare you the 10 minutes I was going to spend on Tower Defense waiting for the guy I met in statistics.

Be proud to be Irish.
Be proud to be Scandinavian.
Be proud to be English.
Be proud to be Russian.

But when you claim pride in being white, you claim pride in the only thing white nations ever unified to accomplish: the enslavement and genocide of non-white people.

Black people in Anglicized nations do have a common denominator; the uniform prejudice they experience in white cultures. You can argue how much of a factor that plays, but it’s a more substantial connection than any 2 people share through whiteness. When white people do seemingly find that bond, it’s only ever been in relation to their hatred of other non-white groups. It never would have occurred to you to take pride in being white if seeing proud black people hadn’t pissed you off so much.

If you can find me a nation where the population is non-white by majority & white people experience systematic oppression (instead of disproportionately high power), I will eat my words and apologize. THOSE white people get to feel pride in their whiteness.

But not you, because you’re slime.

What part of “my great-great-great-grandfather died fighting for the Union Army” do you not understand?

I am not responsible for the sins of my ancestors.  I do not feel guilty for what they did.  It would be unhealthy for me to feel responsible for something that had nothing to do with me.  And, as previously stated, they fought for abolition.  They were Quakers.  (You’re welcome, by the way!)

As previously explained in the post, had you bothered to read it, it is easier for me to simplify and say “white pride” than to separate out each individual nationality.  

And why would I want to?  I am a blend of them all, and they are all me.  Black people don’t have to, so why should I?

This is America, we’re all mutts anyway.  

Holding the daughter guilty for the sins of the mother is a practice long done away with as being ethically and morally reprehensible.  Please join the rest of us in 2013!

White pride! 

I may not have been able to control what my skin color was when I was conceived, but I’m sure proud of those who share my heritage. No amount of race blaming and forced guilt is going to make me forget that. The pride I hold in my fellow white people has absolutely nothing to do with the apparent pride of other races.Though, it does make for a good justification for it, should other races decide to criticize.  I’m actually happy about the accomplishments of other groups, as well. 

When people tell me not to feel a sense of pride for my own people, I realize they wouldn’t tell me this if I was of another race. I realize that what they’re asking me to do is humanly impossible. On that logic, I shouldn’t feel happy when my favorite national football team wins. There are many more examples. But from here it should be pretty obvious.

And for those Ayn Rand lovers, I don’t believe racial pride is an effect of collectivism either. That’s unprovable and historically inaccurate horse shit.
