White people grinning at each other conspiratorially, nervous, exhilarated, they have found a new code. Even in this land of black presidents and Completely Over And Finished Civil Rights and Equality, they will still be able to say their n-word feelings.

this is the dumbest piece of shit. You don’t know anything about ‘that white man’. Offense ought to be from every damn piece of segregation or oppression. Reverse racism is still racism. And goddamn, how do you know the white man hasn’t been oppressed in the past? You don’t know his life story, his cultural background. Racism is not the only -ism and it’s this kind of mindless, thoughtless bigotry that is the reason the American country will never overcome the color of someone’s skin.

The things can be either really hot or really cold.
PIMPSLAYER: A white man is called “Cracker” by a black man.
The word hits him like a saltine underhand-tossed into a lake of whole milk. He feels nothing inside. He does not suddenly call to mind the centuries of injustice and cruelty people like him have suffered, because people like him…
I don’t call every black man I see a nigger, but if you’re a worthless piece of trash that barely qualifies as a human then I’ll call you a nigger, or whatever derogatory term applies to your race, not out of hate of your people but out of sheer detest of the fact that you’re still breathing the same air as I am.
Whatever idiot!
The word hits him like a saltine underhand-tossed into a lake of whole milk. He feels nothing inside. He does not suddenly call to mind the centuries of injustice and cruelty people like him have suffered, because people like him have not suffered centuries of injustice and cruelty. He does not feel threatened, or like violence will be perpetrated upon him (anymore than he usually does when near a black man). He is not given an instant reminder of how the system in place today works—sometimes tacitly but often openly—against him, because the system works for him. He is so pretend-offended that he uses this instance as an excuse to hold on to his atrocious beliefs for the rest of his life.
“like a saltine underhand-tossed into a lake of whole milk” is the best phrase ever written ever
shut the fuck up
you don’t have to be oppressed to be offended
ive written a couple sort of nice and measured responses to comments like these but nobody ever reads them anyways so now i feel comfortable in saying: Of course you can you god damn dummie!
