This simple question sparked one hell of a reaction in “politics.”

I am a racial minority, and you, a white, professional man how do you think you would fare a day in our shoes?

I dunno man, it’d be hard. I keep trying to exercise my moral imagination in this. I’ll never have dark-complexioned skin. So the best I can do is talk with and read the stories of those who have lived it and do my best to amplify them.

Maybe try living it, go to Africa or India where you're practically the only white person in a hundred mile radius and then tell me why you think it might not be the ideal. Then come back and post bait memes about why on earth would anyone not want to be a minority?

I’m sure that would be edifying.

Until then, I guess I will just have to speak my truth through trollbait memes.

And non-trollbait memes!

Lol. Edifying sure. You're so ignorant it's cute.

I wonder: Ought I spend all of my time on ImgFlip seeking only to tell the stories and advance the interests of straight, white, professional men like myself?

Nah

I think you and your conservative friends have that beat covered

I'm not a white straight American man, many of my conservative friends who have an opinion here aren't. your point is?

I can clarify that I don’t speak for you or your friends: Only for the much greater majority who express and resonate with viewpoints similar to this

Sound good?

You mean the minorities who agree with you and the liberal agenda?

One coping strategy some blacks have used for dealing with racism is to do their best to please their oppressors in the hopes of getting some crumbs that fall from the table.

There’s an unkind word for that outlook that I won’t repeat here

But this meme sums it up

Are you saying this is what black conservatives do?

“Is this what black conservatives do?”

At this point: probably.

However, I don’t want to foreclose the possibility that self-described black conservatives are indeed capable of looking at a picture like this and seeing *something* amiss in the way this officer is handling the situation.

But if they’re unable to do even that?

Probably on the bootlicking end of the spectrum.

Hey KatetheGrate, do you know what happened to my friend "Nf_is_best? It says that he is deleted.

Appears he self deleted. I'm not sure why.

Oh

That was uncalled for. And you're missing the point.

This a funny tho

Lol. Your entire career on imgflip has been self promotion.

He's telling a minority that being a minority (out of choice) would be edifying although he has never experienced being a minority. How is that not being ignorant?
