So, what, do people like you expect white males to feel guilty for simply being white males? Disgusting. Horrendous. Mortifying.

Now let me post a funny reaction image and feel superior to you cause of my massive amounts of white male privilage

DAMN IT FEELS GOOD TO BE WHITE

Wow, gosh, what was I thinking, being white and making a brief comment on a trend in the behavior of other white people? Yeah, obviously I know nothing about how white people act. I’m only so white my ancestry is Swedish, French, German, and Welsh. Surely that’s not white enough to qualify to comment on whiteness.

And yes, I do have both white and male privilege, but no, I do not feel guilt nor self-hatred.

I’ll let you ponder that for a while, kiddo.
