People who legitimately think that a white person, no matter what the location or the context, can never experience racism, genuinely make me want to throw up.  The logic used there is some kind of astounding combination of mental gymnastics combined with made up terminology bullshit to fit the ‘Us vs. Them’ agenda/way of thought.

There’s a term I learned in the military, but I’m sure most people are familiar with it: K.I.S.S., or Keep it simple, stupid.  Racism is simple to define, simple to spot.  When you judge or in any way negatively affect someone based on the color of their skin or their racial origins, then that’s racism.  That’s it.  All this other stuff is arbitrary semantics and accomplishes absolutely nothing in the end.  Seriously, how many innocent black kids have you saved from being wrongfully murdered by cops by spending hours arguing on the internet that Irish people can’t experience oppression because they’re white.  For real.  Oh yeah, you sure showed that white girl wearing a sticker bindi for a project her Indian friend started how evil and oppressive she is.  Looks like you stopped another genocide, go you! (I would like to say that thanks to CC, I learned a whole lot more about the Bindi and Indian culture than I ever might have otherwise, which is pretty neat)

It’s times like this where I whole-heartedly miss listening to something like 2 Sense, where it made fun of all this stuff before SJWs were even a thing.  I can’t even laugh at ‘white people’ jokes anymore because it doesn’t sound like they’re coming from a place of self-depreciating humor, it’s just grossly disguised hate.
