      The classic “why are you criticizing all white men??? IM NOT RACIST WTF STFU” fragile-ass MFers

      Guys, if you read a generalized critique of a dominant social group you belong to and you don’t personally exhibit the criticized behaviors then it doesn’t apply to you. Not that difficult. You are in the privileged group. You hold more power in society. If you get butthurt and need to correct the record over a meme that actually accurately represents a large number of first worlders (pro-capital bootsuckers) maybe analyze why it made you mad.

        the fact that there exist people in first-world countries who aren’t like the guy in the meme means you can’t make jokes at the expense of people who are like the guy in the meme? nah dude, this admin removed the post in order to make their own political statement, it had nothing to do with the relevance of the post

        No they most certainly are not - if I list the traits of a specific person, and you get angry that I’m generalising because you share 1 of the list of traits, you are wrong. I am not generalising, I am describing someone who isn’t you.
