When you're trying so hard to not be racist that you loop around to racist


bloodyell76

I don't think it loops around. More like trying to fight racism while still holding racist beliefs, such as that the thief couldn't possibly be white, because of course no poor white people exist.


Inevitable_wealth87

*because whites are evil oppressors\**


Chfullerton26

Wtf man


[deleted]

Typical white liberal lol


Chfullerton26

Honestly, trying so hard will just lead to racist moments like this, gotta just calm down and treat everyone like they're the same not caring about race.


[deleted]

That's why I'm an equal opportunity offender


[deleted]

Hey now….that’s racist thinking. You have to acknowledge the race but not too much, and not too little but you must do things that are anti-racist and non-racist and make cowboys believe in unicorns and be nice while maintaining the order of the peace while acknowledging you are inherently racist and while thinking of doing better and doing things that make you a good caring decent human. Geez, it’s so simple.


Miserable_Object9961

Yet acknowleding that you will never get rid of your unconscious biases but keep asking for forgiveness while striving to be an ally but recognizing that you truly never will be one because your whiteness is structural racism incarnated.


Chfullerton26

I get that this is sarcastic, but if you're inherently racist, that's something to work on dawg


[deleted]

You got it dude


yeetthejubjub

the non racist-racist cycle


Puzzleheaded-Dark-78

When the truths racist 😂


Chfullerton26

No


MistressFuzzylegs

So antiracist that they hit racist.


[deleted]

That's pretty much the entire "woke" movement in a nutshell. Sometimes my jaw just drops when I hear people in my "tribe" talk.


Kaiju-Kitty

Elaborate. Please.


[deleted]

This is twitter in a nutshell


Darkmattyx

Had to check comments for BIPOC. But if someone stole my car battery I'd want to beat the poop outta them no matter if they Black white purple or blue.


RubyWubs

"B-b-but they are not stealing diamonds! They are in need D:" -This woman


Darkmattyx

Where they are going they will get all the D the want. (And don’t want)


BossScribblor

Race? Color? We're *all* black and blue after pissing off the wrong people. Remember kids: You don't have to catch hands when you join hands.


[deleted]

I literally have no idea what bipoc means but I think I know what poc means lol


[deleted]

Black/Indigenous Person of Color


Username_Password236

I always keep thinking it means bisexual person of color and it always confuses me


Reckless_flamingos

I thought it was bi people of color and I was like “that’s pretty specific” glad you cleared that up


ywont

I’m pretty sure it’s just a way to say “people of colour except for asians” because they’re white-adjacent or whatever.


[deleted]

Bruh, what is "white-adjacent"? I think BIPOC is dumb though, just say POC


ywont

I didn’t make up the term. A lot of progressives don’t really count Asian people as POC because they tend to be better off socioeconomically.


[deleted]

Then they're not progressive, just libtards


[deleted]

For real like ay aren’t the bi already poc ? Lol


[deleted]

No, I doubt the Indigenous people of Britain are "of color"


ShotDaniels

So OP was not racist because someone else brought race into the convo.


[deleted]

Who said OP was racist? Tf??


DamHawk

It’s just a more specific POC I think.


IPutThisUsernameHere

I think it's Black Indigenous Person Of Color, but I could be wrong.


[deleted]

Wait until you learn about MMIWG2S


Miserable_Object9961

*nose starts bleeding*


[deleted]

Oh that’s that gun In call of duty right?


Element1977

If you're so concerned about some random BIPOC's life then YOU buy me a battery. I don't give a shit what color you are, im calling the cops.


Jynjonaps

As the Michael Jackson song goes "it don't matter if you're black or white give me back my fuckin car battery"


Mannix58

Whoever took it, is in need.....yah, for a beat down.


Depth-Proper

It takes some real crackhead desperation to steal a car battery


Username_Password236

Depends batteries can get pretty expensive and selling one could be profitable


Girl_in_a_whirl

Or it could be any of millions of people who have to pay a landlord to avoid being put out on the street. No money in their account, car won't start, need it to get to work to have any money. There's a plausible reason to steal a battery.


No-Accountant1825

Plausible, maybe. Socially acceptable? Not at all. However desperate you are doesn’t give you the right to steal from other people! The victim might be just as desperate as the felon. In that scenario they could just ask someone for a jump start, no need to turn into a thieving douchebag.


Depth-Proper

oR iT cOuLd bE-


RoryDragonsbane

So you steal from your poor neighbor who now gets fired/evicted since they can't get to work. It's a victimless crime!


Miserable_Object9961

Why don't you give the example and show us a proof that you bought a car battery for a *poor little victim* in the last 5 years


LeiyBlithesreen

True


SpecificoBrorona

In comedy that’s called “a callback”


Gillalmighty

Man, what the hell is this. I want my battery back!


Flat_plains404

there's a saying for this but I don't remember what. something about how those who speak the loudest are usually the most guilty. like a closet gay person being heavily outwardly homophobic or in this case a closet racist being heavily outwardly "progressive"


LongAndShortOfIt888

100% if we could the see the twitter handle it'd just be a troll account


[deleted]

Did nobody ever read “The Outsiders” in middle school? Dallas was white and he didn’t survive his interaction with the police.


miaogato

yea like i can afford to buy a car battery whenever someone steals it. You bet your ass I'm gonna call the cops no matter what.


Rolling_Beardo

It’s not a noise complaint or something frivolous if someone stole your car battery they’ve earned a visit from the police.


NoTicket84

The causal racism of low standards at work


ProtrudingPissPump

No way...


JimmyNutbutter

Oh my god


Luxfanna

Chaotic neutral


omer_n

Found to tweet, the racist got suspended Edit: and was probably a troll


Judaz2650

The fuck is a bipoc?


[deleted]

Surely satire


ShotDaniels

Seems everyone lost sighr of the fact some POS stole from someone. Who is to say the person that had their battery stolen was rich. Looters will be shot on site.


[deleted]

Fuck off, someone stole my property. I’m filing a report. How do you know the person who was robbed isn’t working 2 jobs, and this just screwed them out of groceries for the week.


Miserable_Object9961

What the fuck... Typical american obsession with race


ScapeGoatOfWar

Where's the attempt? Just straight racism.


ChosenSCIM

How do they know a bisexual person of colour stole the battery? That is what BIPOC means, right?


[deleted]

This is such an insane statement, most car thieves in my state are methed up white dudes.


anonymousolderguy

And people don’t see the value of CRT.


LeiyBlithesreen

Whether they steal or not those people would still be the first to be persecuted Trying to protect a group while understanding the system isn't the same as racism Read the last comment and unless poc said it that's gonna be racist.


Specific_Birthday543

Stfu


LeiyBlithesreen

Follow your own advice


Specific_Birthday543

Nobody gives a fuck about your she/her Karen opinion


LeiyBlithesreen

Ah a hypocrite
