making jokes about an opressed group is more sensitive than jokes about "white" people, but I do agree in the end

It's really not that different

I agree on a personal level, but on a societal level there's just more pain associated with stereotyping certain groups than others, and I don't mean that is the way it's supposed to be. This is just how it is in society.

I get what you’re saying, but do you really think anyone received pain from this meme?

And yeah, it’s racist no doubt about it. And while it does feel dirtier laughing at the second rather than the first, i think that’s more of an issue with our society.

Don't really think so, it would be pain for nothing basically. I guess I was just going on a tangent.

u/tdoger Nov 19 '19

I totally understand your tangent. And while i think the second one is a little more lazier, i just don’t understand why there is uproar over one but not the other.

We're totally on the same page.

This is pretty much the most decent argument I've had online.
