I generally do too.


In honesty, growing up in a pretty damn diverse inner city, I feel like I got along with blacks fine back when I was in HS in the late 90s. I definitely had friends of various races when I was younger. The tension between the races has absolutely gotten worse in my life.


Granted they know they're outnumbered up here in MN (where it's 85% white, and was whiter still when I was younger), but still, we all got along pretty respectfully.

Wakanda he says? Does he mean the fictional place created in the minds of two very rich white men?

I have a feeling karma is going to hit him hard being obese like he is.


Look at the size of him. I'm guessing he doesn't turn down white culture in the form of Italian cuisine.

Good for him? I DAGF what other people do. If he's so hateful then he's not someone I want to see in public anyway.

Well, what the hell have we been fighting for the last 70 years then? This guy hopefully doesn’t represent the majority, but he is insane and is given a platform to spew his insanity to the world.

He’s probably culturally appropriating all things white to spew his #neoracist #neosegregationist POV.

People have always naturally segregated, just go to any city and you’ll see it. It was Obama who tried to blend the poor into wealthy neighborhoods via Section 8 Housing.

My main problem with it is how offended he gets over nothing. I hate the entire concept of microagressions. Some girl standing in front of a pharmacy is asked if this is where vaccines are administered and he assumes she thinks the person is “the help”? Give me a break. People ask me questions like that if I’m standing in front of a store or even if I’m inside. Who cares? It’s not something to get offended about, and if someone does that’s on them, not the asker. Get a life.

If someone feels that way then they really should just stay home. Life is just a little too hard for that person.
