The rallying cry of privileged whites whenever a person of color voices their concern or discomfort with their community’s portrayal in the media is usually along the lines of “You’re a crybaby.” But aren’t these same people doing just that? Crying over the fact that someone actually forced them to think about race in their otherwise colorblind day? It’s been said a million times before but it bears repeating that it’s significantly easier for white people in America and Europe not to think about race being that all aspects of Western culture take whiteness as the given norm. You’re upset that you’ve been made to feel uncomfortable because of your race? Join the club. —
Vic of Das Racist on Trayvon, blackface, and so-called post-raciality.
I just want to pre-emptively say “I see you” to all the white supremacist anti-intellectual hipsterfucks who unfollowed and shit-talked me when I went off about Girls and cultural representation and ranted about Trayvon’s death for a whole fucking month. I fucking see you guys. You’re going to reblog Heems’ post (written by Vic)— more than likely from the Vice Tumblr (run by a super affable, smart person who fucking gets it unlike you apathetic scoundrels)— for a bunch of reasons which have nothing to do with actually giving a fuck about racism and everything to do with a) looking like you understand this, b) cloaking yourself in the warmness of cultural relevance (Das Racist is so cool because Vice and Pitchfork say they’re cool, right?) to assuage your white guilt for a moment, and c) because you’re fucking stupid. I see you and DR sees you, too. That’s why Das Racist will continue making fun of white people at their concerts because they don’t want hipster racists dickriding them to make themselves look cool. You can’t apologize for hipster racists like Gavin McCinnes, Lesley Arfin and Kelly McClure and be a fan of Das Racist.

You really are an interesting, if not very lowly, member of our species.Why always say ” that’s like me saying all blacks are ….. Or that’s like me doing ” Sounds like you would say the shit anyway, no need to be hypothetical ……RIGHT???
