Racial Stupidity #1

I've been thinking for awhile to keep track of some of the stupidity I come across regarding race. On twitter basically everyday some racial topic gets trending, or some person goes on a race rant and it's almost always the same theme. Same people, same accounts hyping up some minor thing to be a major scandal.

The common theme is usually some very selfish dumbed down person with a LOT of tweets making racially charged claims and then backing it up with things plucked from their own imagination. It's always lacking data, substance, facts, reality & most importantly any consideration for a counter argument.

So today I came across someone called @coconutoildaddy .... Whose bio says ''I'm not racist, I have white blood cells'' So we're clearly dealing with a fool at this point. Nevertheless she was keen to prove 'white privilege' is actually real...And here she goes...


So she starts with a gif about what white people supposedly don't have to worry about. Already we're into generalisations, but Okay....

#1 - White people don't have to worry about being followed around in a store because they look 'suspicious'

Well believe it or not, some white people do look suspicious in stores & they probably do get followed around.
Does a well dressed Asian get followed around in a store? Nah. So why is she singling it out like it only applies to white people?
As for blacks(which I assume she is referring to) being followed around more. Well that's mainly due to statistics & action. Blacks steal more, that's a statistical fact. So if you're a security guard & most thefts are done by blacks(specifically young black males) ...that's who you're gonna statistically follow around more. That is not a white privilege, that's just a statistical reality. If that wasn't the case, then they wouldn't be following them around more than others.

Next....


#2 - White people don't have to worry about people asking them if they came to America ''Illegally'' and if they're 'legal' in America.

The only people who'd get asked that are hispanics & there are millions of white hispanics. So this makes no sense at all.  Next.


#3 - White people don't to worry about being shot or abused by police because of their race/skin colour

I guess she rushed to get this one out since she missed a word or two. Anyway there are over 7,000 non white cops in the US. So is she suggesting only white cops will shoot people due to skin color? but the rest won't? Huh. Does that make sense to you?

Furthermore the evidence actually proves her claims completely wrong. Studies found the police were more likely to fire if it were a white person as they feared a media shit storm or being called racist for shooting a black person.
What that means in English - A cop is more likely to shoot a white person than a black person in a similar incident. That's a factual reality.


#4 - White people don't have to worry about people at their school making fun of their name because it sounds ''ghetto'' or ''ratchet''

This one is just bizarre. First of all who forces anyone to give their kids idiotic names?  You think black people don't make fun of these names? Trust me, they do. I see it all the time. So black people give their kids ghetto or wacky names, people(blacks included) make fun of this & she somehow says this is white privilege?  How the heck does her mind even function?

You ever seen some Russian or German names? Nobody can pronounce that shit & people make fun or jokes about it too,...  At this point Venecia is showing that she is of a very low intellect & simply cannot process thoughts rationally.

She lacks awareness of what happens to others & simply uses anything negative at all towards blacks as a white problem or a white privilege. It's totally stupid.



#5 - White people don't have to worry about people calling them racial slurs, and no cracker isn't a racial slur so please

Well cracker obviously is a racial slur since it's used about white people as a slur, quite often. Which makes it a racial slur. Does she even understand what a racial slur is?
She should make a twitter account as a white person & she'll soon find out how often racial slurs are aimed at white people. I'll save her the trouble & give you a range of examples...

I've been called ''Mayo trash'' about 200 times
Cracker is just a given
White boy is often said in a negative way
Often told I fuck my sister & my ancestors are incest inbreeders
Pale skin mother fucker
Some random quite examples from twitter 


What is interesting, is an example like this. A verified twitter user with almost 500k followers, tweeted this... 
Now this is evidently a fucking stupid tweet, but he's insinuating white people(big generalization obv) are racist, now look at his 1st response when someone disagrees with him and is white...

He was not racially insulted at all. He made a wildly dumb tweet about white people, a white person disagreed without racially insulting him, and he responded with a racial slur. Yet he is accusing other people of being racist. Similar to venecia's mindset, where she is attacking others with wild bullshit she's made up in her head, and the reality is, it's actually her with the problem, her with the racial prejudice, her & him with the privilege to be racist as fuck & people to like it, laugh & not actually say, hold up? You're being racist.

If you're against racism but you think saying black men are ugly is disgusting but saying white men are ugly they look like mayo is ok, you're not actually against racism. You're pro racism against a certain race. That's dumb.

#6 - White people don't have to constantly be asked if they're the first ones in their family to actually go to college.

Neither do Asians. So...?  She's simply projecting something that is said to blacks(by other blacks too) & making it about white people, despite the fact other races also don't have this issue. 

Next...



#7 - White people who come from France, Italy, English, etc are praised for their accents but poc are called ''Stupid'' or ''Dumb'' bc of theirs.

This is an interesting glimpse into how stupid people think. She is at this point thinking of things to say & she came up with this. Now tell me what language & race have to do with anything?

You think people don't make fun of Russian accents? It's literally what we've done for many years. There's a big difference between accents and broken English.

Eastern European accents are widely portrayed as a villain type in movies, The German accent used in a similar way. It's accents. It's not skin color. You have to be very self absorbed not to know this.

When I dated an American, she didn't like my British accent because I was fucking white, she liked it because it was hot to her. How the hell is this race related? 

Tell me what accent Idris Elba has? British? Ohhh...but..Um..Maybe skin color not the issue here?

Next...



#8 - White people don't have to worry about not being hired for a job because of their name.

Ummm, maybe this is true actually, for some jobs.  Still, on the flipside, white people don't have the luxury of quotas, of getting jobs purely because a company has to hire a certain amount of non white people & thus a black person less qualified than a white person can get the job over him/her.

BTW, there's many non white owned businesses, so who is forcing them to hire people or not hire people based on names?  Nobody. If they're doing it too(which some actually do) maybe the reason isn't about white people at all, but more not trimming down 100 applications faster by ruling out ridiculous wild names that could be offputting for a business.  Next.



#9 - White people can talk about race and be so passionate about something and they won't be labeled as the 'angry white person'

This one shows probably more than ever how wildly out of touch with reality this girl is. A white person simply cannot talk openly or passionately about race unless they're hating on themselves or pandering to other people. Any white person who says anything negative about any other race no matter what, or anything positive about white people AT ALL, is straight away a racist, bigot, nazi, KKK privileged whitesplaining, whiteness colonizer, Hitler reincarnate, Fox News lover etc etc. You cannot speak honestly about race as a white person. Cannot happen. 

The most common example of this is dismissing opinions purely because the person is white. This doesn't happen with any other people. I cannot tell you how many times I've seen 
''How can you as a white person tell a POC what racism is or isn't'' 
''What would you know about oppression white boy''
I could go on & on but you get the message.

Essentially she has thought in her head of what else she can tweet, the 'angry black woman' thing came to mind & she tried to find a way to put that into a tweet, unfortunately she tweeted the stupidest thing possible.  Next...


This basically reveals what it's all about. She wants her stupid examples to 'prove' white privilege is real & for that to mean white people owe her & should be pandering/bowing down to her. Help her, listen to her, respect her, her experience/life matters, ok white people? You see this girl? Give her a top job & double her wages, this bitch is oppressed!  Someone made fun of her name in the 6th grade!


#10 - Mental issues is seen as a ''white people problem'' so many poc are often ashamed to seek help

This one is just insulting all round. There's tens of millions of white people with mental issues ashamed to seek help(many end up committing suicide, white people commit suicide at a much bigger rate than any other race) How the hell are you going to claim the reason poc don't seek help is because apparently, it's seen as a white problem? why don't all those white people seek help then?
She's just using white people again as the problem to a problem, when they're not the problem.

I've often heard it said 
''Why do white people want to be oppressed so bad''

Yet, the people always making long winded attention seeking agenda driven rants like this, trying to be oppressed, are very rarely white people. And when they are, they're usually white people hating on  other white people for attention/social approval from racists like this girl. 

It's all very pointless. Everybody has issues/difficulties/unique problems.

There are issues blacks face others don't
Same for Hispanics/Asians/Whites etc

If you're against rape, you don't suddenly think rape is ok if it happens to a man or a white person or someone you don't like.
It really shouldn't be any different with racism.
