      That’s the proper reaction to racism. Indifference, jokes, mockery, and ridicule. We had it right in the '90s. Hate loses all its power when it’s made the butt of the joke.

        No, we didn’t. Pretending that white supremacism would go away if we pretended it didn’t exist has delivered the predictable outcome.

        This is a perfect Rorshach/Newspeak statement: you’ll either agree or be outraged depending on what you guess about the speaker’s ideology.

        I’m gonna assume OP agrees with me about _which things_are stupid and go on to enjoy my morning.

      Privilege would be being insulted at this (as a white person).
