Just something i found on tumblr. What do you guys think?

Lmao!
How can I be racist if I work with blacks
How can I be racist if one sold me slacks
I’m not racist I’m just like you. I’m best friends with a black or two.

i’mnot racist, you see, it’s just a preference
i love eastern culture and its women’s deference
the west lost its way with no room for clemency
If I love Asian women, how’s that white supremacy?

i’m not a racist, i can’t be, you see
my great grandma’s grandma was part cherokee
plus one time i got called “cracker” to my face
don’t we all bleed red? i don’t even see race…

I’m not racist, blacks just need to stop complaining
Living in the past and white people blaming
I work hard, no handouts for every little fraction
If white privilege isn’t fair, then how is affirmative action?

I’m not racist man, I’m just right-wing
Plus reverse-racism is totally a thing
It’s not about power check the definition
Slavery wasn’t an evil thing, just asset acquisition.

How come I can’t say “nigga”, it just means brotha!
And ain’t I a brotha from anotha motha?
I didn’t use the ‘er’- so its a total difference.
You blacks give good white people such hindrance

‘We can’t handle spicy foods' ? Your jokes make me sad
See,if I joked and called you a “nigger”, you’ll be mad
You black people think we are always out here to ruin your day
Look, 'not all white people’, …mmkay?

I can say “nigga” ‘cause of freedom of speech
And y’all always forget what MLK preached!
White privilege ain’t real ‘cause my life is hard
If you want to stop racists, don’t play the race card

Blacks can oppress. Shoot, they’ve oppressed me
I was the only white kid and the blacks were so mean
So I called one a ******, but clicked anon first
yeah racism is real, but like… I’ve had it worst.

I can't be racist, I'm black you see
I just killed two crackas for staring the wrong way at me
It's revenge for what their ancestors did
now pay me a million quid.

I feel as though you've missed the point of the poem.

This is one of the stupidest far-right pieces of trash I've ever seen.

Before anyone else misunderstands:

The point of the poem is not to justify racism, the persona is someone who uses flimsy excuses to do so.

However, the purpose of the poem is not to say "look at my plight as a white person" it is to say "look how ridiculous these excuses are."

Oh please white people aren't affected by racism.. Half the time they're the ones who's dishing it wether that's overtly or through institutionalised racism.

So you agree that paragraph 3 is a good excuse?

What? White people who claim they've been the victims of racism annoy me. Reverse racism does not exist. Anger is a legitimate response to years of oppression, so it's unsurprising how some coloured people aren't interested in moderating their tone for a white audience. This is not reverse racism.

I am so so tired of having to explain to people why things are racist. I'm actually exhausted.
The poem is entertaining though but makes a serious point

No, reverse racism does not exist. Because reverse racism is a ridicious concept that never existed. It's like saying reverse violence, or reverse rape.

Racism against white people is racism. It's as simple as that.

Must be exhausting having to invent racism when none exists. Like looking for poltergeists.

Have you noticed the anti-racist / racism obsession that this country has?

What the obsession really says is that race is a problem to many people and with the relatively recent massive demographic changes in this country one would expect race and culture to be very contentious issues.

Immigration is now the number one or two political issue.

It's time to stop making nonsense rhymes about the way you feel

Feelings are often conditioned and you have to get real.

So you honestly think that racism is a thing of the past?
That white people do not discriminate?
That the ideals of non whites being inferior isn't still a strong undercurrent?
Furthermore what is your problem- why do you deny the experiences of others because you don't see it?

You're the only person who thinks non-whites are inferior, you never shut up about it.

Well, I'm mixed race, and I don't see majority of white people denying the existence of racism. What I do see however is majority of non white people inventing racism when none exists, blacks especially, and outright denying the existence of anti white racism.
