If you call someone white, youre racist - Conservatives


Please let me know what you think they were doing. Because I'm not sure what it means.

Maybe someone who is black can offer some insight?

I would never in a million years, in a yelling manner in public, say someones race or ethnicity and then start laughing.

Youre acting as if being called white boy is anything close to being called the n-word or some other slurs.

Yeah, theyre not in the right, but youre looking like a doofus for thinking that there should be outrage.

I'm not acting like that. They weren't necessarily being hostile, saying the f word calling me a cracker and to get out of here or something like that.

But I'm just trying to understand what it means and why they did what they did. And how the same people in this topic would view the situation completely differently if it was a group of white people doing the exact same (mentioning race and laughing, but in a non threatening manner).

So can any one of color tell me what they were doing?

People of color are not some hive mind. One can only speak for themselves and are only accountable for their own actions and intentions.

I understand that. But some people in this topic who happen to be of color are acting like it's not a big deal and actually somewhat normal but just maybe immature.

The question is open to anyone, really.

I'll throw my 2 cents in sense you seem pretty shook by this. My only speculation is that you must have a certain appearance or was dressed a certain way at the time. That combined with your walk, posture, possibly other things.

If I had to guess, this likely wouldn't have happened to a white dude of the Thor or Captain America variety, in the exact same scenario.

No. White shorts and a blue polo with flip flops.

They're just words though

Imagine using this line after someone slurs a minority

And this.

If they're just words then it applies to every word. Otherwise get your head out of your ass and don't say stupid s***.


That was my point. People say that all the time after someone slurs a minority.

Being called "White Boy" out of nowhere is just weird and you should just really try to ignore that. I don't mean it like "well, why can't he/she call me that and not I?!" because it will be pretty weird on both sides tbh if you suddenly go like "Hey, Black man".


Yeah.. it is weird. And yes, it would be weird on the other side as well---but more than that.

This topic revealed that it is in fact quite normal (but weird or immature) for white people to be laughed at because of their race by complete strangers and it's totally not even in the slightest bit racist.

Try being Asian though and having people walking pass you randomly going like "ching chong" or "Watch out, he knows Karate/TKD/Kung Fu" or other stereotypical things that are more insulting than being just called by my race or ethnicity.

I've had that a lot in my youth. Now, if I get crap flung at me like that, I like to respond with "S-Soree, noo shpeek Engrish", and maybe I'll play along with their jackassery by following up with "ching chong ling long ting tong bing bong ding dong" and finally concluding the exchange by calling them various insults, such as a "stupid c**t" in Mandarin.

This topic is really funny in the face of the fact that I got called "the Asian" regularly by white people, and every time I've objected, they made it seem like I was being too sensitive

IT WHAT YOU ARE RIGHT

I'm a white boy and based on everything you post (especially this topic) I would probably laugh my ass off at you in public. I get the vibe I'd mock the hell out of you at least. Sounds like a L7.
