Because I have all the answers 
But for real, I just remembered who he is, and I think i might stop now. He's not all there from what I remember tho.
Serious question tho, is it possible that white ppl are inherently evil/greedy/selfish?
I mean, I feel bad for saying it but let's call a spade a spade. I can't help but wonder... My country colonised most of Africa like 80 years ago, robbed them blind and since then invaded 3rd world country for oil, yet somehow there was a financial crash/credit crunch in 2008, since then the working class have to pay the price of white ppls actions and not the decision makers themselves. But how were they able to lose that much money? 
White people made enslaved people that were not their own, whites genocide the native Americans, white turned Africa upside down, whites put guns in Africa, whites are the cause of global warming. Surely I'm on to something here

Oh, and hi to everyone. First time posting in here. |
Wow. Your classmates sound like trash.

White people are the devil's spawn.
I've known that since 6th grade.
I still love my vanilla though.
The saved ones like Jameson give hope to their gruesome kind.

No.
My belief is that white people will never admit to have the advantage but they know deep down they have it. It's much easier to brush it off and buy into people saying it doesn't exist then to face the facts and try to stop the problem. It makes them feel guilty knowing what there ancestors did, what their family members possibly think and knowing that in society they are automatically seen as smarter, are more respected, deemed infinitely more attractive and have benefits that blacks could never receive.
However it's not just white people, ya'll will get on me for mentioning this but I do believe colorism benefits lighter skinned blacks in society (main society, not the black community). The way some light skinned blacks completely deny this is ignorant too but I can at least excuse them because darker skinned blacks give them **** for being light too so it may feel like they get it from both sides really. Still, the way the some light skinned people deny that the majority white society prefers them is often times the same way whites don't see their privilege.
White people are not (naturally) evil, it's just that they are seeing everything from an outside perspective so it's easy for ignorance to form. The problem is most white people don't why to be educated on us or other minorities. They don't want to learn about black culture, they want to see us all as one morphed image because it's not hurting them to do so. When would their inward anti-black prejudice be a problem for them? They don't need us to succeed but because the way society is set up we need them.
That's why (regardless of it's ratchetness at times) I really appreciate BET and things of the like. Often times as soon as a token black person because successful they go against there own people to stay successful and stay that token black person ex Don Lemon, Clarence Thomas etc. The point is that it's not that their evil, it's that they hold the power to use these evils against you and the power to band together and pretend this power doesn't exist.
If this were a superhero movie white people would be the evil villains terrorizing the minorities and then there would be that one villain out of how many that decides to leave the villain side and join the good.
EDIT: Not me typing up a damn multi paragraph thesis (the only one too) in like 6 minutes but when I need to do **** like this for school I go blank.

There's this girl in my school like that. And here's what I love about her. She's not the "OMG, I LOVE BLACK PEOPLE, WHAT UP YO!" She is very understanding. Her friends are mostly white, but she is not ignorant. In her college essay, she discussed being around minorities and understanding what they go through. I love her because she's not ignorant. Personally, that's all I ask of people. Don't be ignorant. I respect someone who understands that they have an advantage and doesn't say dumb things like "oh you're just pulling the race card". Don't act like the playing field is 100% fair, because it's not. The more people can understand that, the closer we can be to any type of change.
It also doesn't hurt that she wants to go into African-American studies in college.

I was browsing ATRL recently and found someone made a thread base for that pic they always use of the black woman standing by the heater with cake and all types of crap on her plate looking mad shady.
They named her Cocoa CoCo

Asia has plenty of problems with racism and oppression and they're all the same "race."
It's not a white people thing. It's a people thing.

But yeah, anyone with privilege doesn't want to face the facts. Why would you give up something that makes your life easier? I hate it but at least their extreme hatred kinda makes sense. It's the people that try to act like none of this **** exists that irk me the most.
I also hate that white people spread their ******** logic all across the globe. Colorism can be found in any community of color simply because of colonization. Lighter-skinned people were given more rights than their darker-skinned counterparts. White people really managed to **** up everything they could get their hands on

I mad at y'all for not being an audience for my ATRL Idol. There are some really talented vocalists participating like Clark, JonathanLGardner, Taste of Honey, and Mani. You should really check it out.

Admitting to privilege doesn't give it up though. You can be aware of it, but you can't give up privilege. You can't escape to the option menu in life and change the difficulty setting. I can't give up being gay, but I also can't give up being a white male.
Sadly too many white people don't realize how difficult life can be.
