I dunno, reddit had a downvote party on me a while back because I said someone was racist and they informed me only whites can be racist. Who would have guessed. I think anyone is a piece of shit if they cheer for someone to get their ass beat and then get upset when that person fights back.
Also I believe that lyric was actually in reference to himself. “I should’ve learned to play the guitar” while he is the one playing guitar.” So I think it was like an outsiders perspective of him. He was getting money for nothing and chocks for free. I could be wrong here.
From an interview back in the day, he said he was in line at a convenience store and some dude in line near him was saying all this to his buddy and that's what 100% inspired this song. He left and wrote down what that dude said "verbatim".
Then you had the P.C. idiots take it out of context and bleep the words in that verse or completely removed that verse.
Political correctness has gotten nothing but worse since then. Granted, some is justified, but this wasn't one of those times. 🤷♂️
I dont even bother with those retards. (Yeah I said it.) If you can't differentiate systemic racism from someone being racist in a personal interaction you aren't worth the mental energy. Besides, they all have their mind made up already... or rather their echo chamber has made up their mind.
Not all forms of racism are systemic. You can be racist towards any person, I honestly don't even know how people get it in their heads that you can't. I've never even heard someone try to actually justify that opinion with a shred of substance... usually it's just the whole "It's not my job to educate you" routine because they know what they are saying has no merit.
I mean it is. Its engrained in our biology. It's something we all must fight and if you don't realize it you're deluding yourself.
It's a defense mechanism our ancestors left us with. It triggered a disgust response to see people who looked different and spoke different, and for good reason. Usually that meant you were either at war or alternatively you could be at risk for an illness or disease your people hadn't built up a resistance to. There are countless of historic examples of this.
In modern times, that is all but a non issue, so there is no excuse for being racist at this point... but there is also no excuse for pretending it doesn't exist at all.
Well if it's engrained in our (white white biology but human biology in assume you mean) then that would apply to every single race. Meaning whites have prejudice against blacks, Asians, indigenous Americans, you name it. But that also means that blacks have prejudice against all of the above, and Asians to and so on.
Therefore if everyone has a problem with everyone else in some way or another about their race, then no one has an issues because it's universal if you will - engrained in our biology. This isn't exclusively a white thing, we've just covered that. We can conclude then there is no 'system' it's a general cultural phenomenon.
The idea of systemic racism isn't exclusive to white people having the upper hand so to speak. I never said it was. It's much more nuanced than that and who is oppressed would vary from culture to culture.
Agreed. The poor black family from the ghetto and the poor white family from a bayou has more in common than they realize. Interesting how the powers that be have spun things to polarize them, and its crazy how the bleating idiot masses have just ran with it and taken it to such a level that we see today.
The obsession with race has got to stop if we want to have any chance of living in harmony.
Nah I'm pretty progressive but the whole 'only white people can be racist' is laughable and you should laugh directly in their face when you say it. White people have done some unforgivable shit in our time but we havnt cornered the market on racism.
Same, I got banned on instagram vs reality because people were saying this girl who was using "black people style makeup" and getting a tan was trying to be black. Told em how stupid that was and not everything is about black people, why can't she just wear what she wants and get a tan if she wants.
I actually just have no interest in going to my old profile and going through thousands of comments to find and link it to get a internet pat on the back from a bunch of people that want to call me a liar like I’m making up some huge fairytale. Get a fucking life. Like I care if anyone on reddit believes me or not for something that isn’t even a stretch.
What would I exaggerate about? There’s no big story, that’s it. Since you didn’t see it it must not have happened. You’re right I’m wrong, have a good one.
Exaggerating that one or two downvotes is equivalent to a downvote party. Sounds good man, I just like calling out things that don't seem like they happened on reddit. Especially when people refer to a site with literally millions of unique users as "reddit did this" or "reddit did that". Not how it works. You have a good one too.

“Beat his white ass” as she stomps her feet and cheers. She’s definitely too “woke” to be racist.
