Can someone explain to me why it's verboten to use the experience of my friends, friends who are minorities, as an example when discussing something? Yeah, I know. "Some of my best friends are black." Or some other group. But they are my friends, my coworkers, and even my family. I'm a cac. But I'm living this shit along side them, I got first hand experience, I'm not just linking some article from Wikipedia. I know them, anything that happens to the happens to me. You guys like Taco Bell? I live 3 blocks from a Domino's that's encased in bullet-proof glass because of robberies.
It's not you guys, it's trying to argue this shit in general. I'm just so sick of people of who have never walked the walk, but they talk the talk. They have no life experience whatsoever, but they think they get to talk shit because they read some article from some website.
"My friend doesn't give a shit about the Redskin logo."- Me
"Well, actually, the Redskin logo is incredibly demeaning to Native Americans, see this article on Washington Post"- Dude with Sephiroth avatar that never leaves the house
I lose. So says the internet.
I'm a Democrat, and I love being a Democrat. But ideals like "Punching Up" and "Privilege" are the Worst Fucking Things that this party has adopted. Please stop
