yeah i'm starting to see that. i've done the whole "okay try to not be as offensive as possible" and it just doesn't work. i mean, look at all the threads above. some pretty decent discussion was started and a bunch of pocs still got fucking pissed.
op here and i don't feel they actually got mad. i presented what i wanted to share the wrong way and if they came off angry it's because what how i went about it was pretty damn offensive.
da all the anger i'm seeing has been rightly directed at the exceedingly dumb posts on this page. or are we not allowed to get angry when entitled white people think they can speak for the experience of others?

(Anonymous) 2012-12-19 10:49 am (UTC)(link)when an asian person can tell you this and in fact, asian anons have made this point before.
because she makes it sound like some kind of discovery?
because she could just have easily linked us to her black friend's blog instead of telling us how she is when she obviously has privilege?
and tbh nobody got pissed?
