As a white male, if I were to intentionally be racist but very badly (ask the black guy to help me with my math homework, ask the mexican if his people really all squat in the snow while calling each other "suka"...) would I be heroically deconstructing racism or would I be an oppressor doing the oppression? Does it change anything if I'm jewish-passing?

Tricky D posted:The diversity officers were unable to stop the disease of microaggression. Something more extreme was needed, so the megacities created the diversity judges. They were empowered to seek out microaggressions and act as judge, jury, and executioner. Citizens of Geebees, this is Judge Beard. In case you losers have forgotten, this message board operates under the same rules of the rest of the Internet. Lowtax is not the law. I AM THE LAW. Lowtax is a common criminal, guilty of murdering good taste, guilty of the manufacture and distribution of subpar frontpage content, and as of now under sentence of 6 hours probation. Any who obstruct me in carrying out my doody will be treated as an accessory to his crimes. You have been warned. And as for you, Lowtax, judgement time. Judge Beard to Central. Yeah, I'm gonna need some backup from the transgender community on this.

What I don't get about this is that, as a white upper middle class heterosexual male in STEM, I am p. much aware that I have it really good and better than p much everybody else; but I'm supposed to feel bad about this.. why?

some guy: "I'm white and straight" Some other guy: "wow, are you even aware of how cool and good you + your life is?" first guy: "wow, thanks for amkign me feel bad." I mean that isn't a real conversation. Why is some guy #1 supposed to feel bad here?? IF I meet some gal/guy who has a kickass pet or motorcycle and I tell them their pet and motorcycle is great and that its better than MY pet or motorcycle, how is that supposed to make them feel bad?

That would be a microaggression to you, because you are not a dog.

These college kids will grow up, have children, and impart these lessons the the next generation, and we will come full circle when a bunch of black kids start getting left out of pick up basketball games at recess and colleges will then start teaching that no game must ever be initiated without a black person present.

IF you are a person made of human flesh and not plastic bricks and you visit a country or land made entirely of Lego's, that's a microaggression.

It's essentially the legocracy's way of telling you that all prominent builders and inhabitants of the lego land were yellow lego people and not made of flesh.

If you are good at riding a skateboard and somebody tells you that you are good at riding it, and that your life is good, you must feel bad about that, because your skateboard is a microaggression. Imagine entering a chemical lab and all the pictures in the halls are pictures of skateboards, and you're a dog. That's a micro aggression.

One time we went to visit my mother-in-law's cabin and in every room there were framed pictures of John Stamos and to me, who is not john stamos, that was micro aggressive.
