obnoxious but par for the course

=====>Don't you dare assume I know anything, bigot!!!

"11. Don’t rinse our culturally specific memes. They’re ours. Go enjoy that weird one about the plums."

=====>what

"14. When you endlessly complain about how terrible white people are, you are being that terrible white person. Jeez."

=====>I'm with you here.

"16. Don’t question someone's Blackness if they’re light-skinned. It's not your place. Other Black people can make sure that light-skinned Black people are cognizant of their privilege."

=====>lol. *We'll* do the policing around here, thank you very much.

"18. When you find instances of racist bullshit online, please don’t send it to us. We know racism exists, thanks." and "22. Share articles relating to the everyday experiences of race and racism written by people of color."

=====>um

"25. Watch shows that are created by people of color i.e. Atlanta or Insecure. (Seriously, if you haven’t seen Atlanta, you need to watch it. Now.)"

=====>Oh God. Now I'm a racist if I don't watch shitty TV.

"27. If you go to an art gallery, notice how many works are by people of color. If it's lacking, make some noise, send an email, query the curator. White people shouldn’t have a monopoly on what can be considered art."

=====>You want me to assume I know the race of every artist?

"30. Refuse to go to club nights or drag shows or burlesque nights that use culturally appropriative acts."

=====>Oh no! This is going to ruin my burlesque nights! But I guess it's a sacrifice I'll have to make for social justice...

"40. Remember that not all people of color are straight."

=====>I will keep that in mind.

"41. Remember that people of color are not inherently more homophobic than white people."

=====>Inherently? No, I suppose not. But you're saying there's no difference culturally? Riiiiiiight...

"43. When we talk about race, we’re not just talking about men! Repeat after me: Intersections of race and gender exist."

=====>Race and gender intersect? Well I'll be.

"44. Remember that it is Black women and Native women and mixed race women who are most likely to be raped in their lifetimes in America. You cannot be an advocate against sexual violence without considering the impact of race."

=====>I doubt you want me asking who's doing the raping.

"54. If you’re trying to start a mixed raced family, sit down and deeply interrogate your intentions." and "55. If you do have mixed race children, make sure that they have access to people who look like them and who understand their experiences."

=====> lol, yet another area where libs and white supremacists intersect.

"65. Commission people of color to make work about race."

=====> what sort of Soviet phrasing is this

"76. Share alerts when ICE is planning a raid."

=====> OK, practical, since all white people get tipped off beforehand.

"88. That includes the word “colored.” “Person of color” and “colored” are not the same. Trust me."

=====> sort of the same idea though, no?

Libs, read my lips: ILLEGALITY IS NOT A RACE.

Don't make me give up my culture!

Don't assume I know anything about my culture!

"35. If you’re upper or middle class try to avoid moving into an area that has historically been populated by low-income people of color. Gentrification tears communities apart."

vs.

http://autoadmit.com/thread.php? thread_id=3912961&mc=22&forum_id=2 "I want to be SURE I'm not gentrifying any disadvantaged communities." *wink*

21. But when we do have something to say about it, listen."

ljl. When I want to talk about something, you have to listen. When you want to talk about something, shut the fuck up.

White libs are in this weird abusive relationship with colored people. Excuse me, people of color.

9. Regard us as autonomous, unique individuals, not as representatives of our race.

10. Don’t make embarrassing jokes to try and be “down” with people of color. We’ll laugh at you, not with you.

That might be, as they say, "problematic" for many of your positions.
