Then in upside down world of SJW logic, all that is important is the color of your skin.
Unless you're a white liberal who "feels" like a black person.....then it's ok to pretend you're something your not as long as you're trashing white conservatives along the way.
Other than that, you will be judged and compartmentalized into a group that you have absolutely no control over the parameters that they are using to place you in.
You don't get it.....in their world, it's NOT ok to be white unless you are willing to be self deprecating and take the blame for every injustice committed or perceived by every other white person on the planet now and centuries ago.
Who YOU are and what YOU'VE done is really quite irrelevant to them.
Just about everyone with half a brain knows that it's okay to be white (or black, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, etc.) You might need such a statement for people learning about white privilege for reassurance purposes, but this sticker implies that there are throngs of social justice warriors shaming people for being white as opposed to shaming certain white people for being jerks.
The sign is hilarious to me. I’d just laugh at it. I mean, what’s supposed to be my reaction as a non white person BUT humor?
I’m certainly not gonna take it seriously.
this is a perfectly reasonable and logical response.

There is a big difference between accepting who you are and going into a pride movement. Pride is what sent the devil to hell. But nobody should have to apologize for the color of their skin. It gets a little tiresome having racist people complaining about the color of our skin. I was born this way and there is not one thing wrong with that.
And if this doesn't make you understand how stupid it is to base your "pride" or any other aspect of your life on the color of your skin, no matter what color you are.... I have no idea what will.
I dont so much care about my skin colour, but I'm I guess the closest word would be proud or I take pride in my Scots-Irish colonial American ancestry and that I am a Southerner. I take some pride in that 20 of my ancestors fought in the American Revolution in the Southern Campaign.
I think if I were black, I'd take pride in that history and heritage.
But I'll never ever feel any measure of negativity or sorrow for being Scots-Irish, white, Southern or having an Appalachian background. And yes, I know its not my accomplishment (I do have my own accomplishments) but its that I know my heritage is essentially Southern Celtic. I have a keen interest in history and its fascinating to read about the background, both the good and bad that has lead to the culture I was born into.
