So this picture has been floating around for a while and I've only just seen it.
In my opinion, this needs to change. It is not good for anybody.
Let's take a look at the outcome of this -
1. White person sees this and feels put out.
2. White person thinks, "hey, this is racist"
3. Ethnic person sees this and thinks "White priveledge, white people deserve to be put in a bad light like this"
4. Ethnic person feels initially smug or that a small amount of justice has happened.
5. White person thinks "mmkay, if this is how things are going to be, screw ethnic battle for equality, I can't be bothered to support "equality" at all if this is what is going to happen"
White person goes on his/her merry way in life, ethnic person is left to fight for him/herself having lost support from chunks of society.
So, seriously, how does bad mouthing white people help society whatsoever?
In my opinion it doesn't. As a white person, every time I see something like this, the less I feel inclined to help any ethnic person less fortunate than me.
It drives me away from WANTING to help.
Anybody else feel like this, or am I an exception?
