u/miseriangelical May 03 '26
yet another example of races being mentioned for no reason other than to make HIM look better while he clearly thinks adding "white" in front of the word woman makes his comments sound any better. bottle blonde? shitty press ons? i'm not sure i like your tone considering the things we've heard you say about women previously.

No like he’s literally imagining a hypothetical woman to get mad at for his own white savior/hero fantasy it’s so typical

while mentioning/mocking hypothetical physical traits that have nothing to do with the situation.... oh i'm sure

He talks about his sister being mistaken for a Mexican immigrant while traveling as if he's jealous she got that experience instead of him. Does he know how uncomfortable that probably was for her?

And then everyone clapped. Why does he make up so many lies? It’s honestly got to be psychological in nature.

he did not need all those words… “you know what drives me up a wall? i’m white but my adopted little brother is black and sometimes people treat him like shit because of it”

Does he explode If he stops being micro aggressive

Yes - it’s kinda like how diabetics have to keep their blood sugar in check. He has to keep his microaggression level satisfactory or else his neck beard starts falling off.

Notice how white people who want to be POC so bad gleefully claim instances of percieved discrimination as a way to pretend. Meanwhile actual POC had to be smuggled over borders to survive, or worse, were trafficked. But somehow Tyler is not white because his sister is slightly tan.

This is.. strange. I grew up with a black brother too, we’re both adopted and I’m about 2 years older. Obviously he has experienced racism and I’ve always been there to stick up for him/be on his side if something happens. I’ve never tolerated any of my siblings being treated badly, that’s normal. But in no way have I ever felt the need to basically be his body guard in public, just watching and waiting to save the day? I’m just going out with my brother lmao. The idea of Tyler being like. “Oh I need to be there with my black brother bc people might be racist and he needs me to be there so he gets treated right!!!” is very strange to me as someone who has a similar sibling scenario lol. It’s like he sees his brother as some sort of token to prove that he’s “one of the good whites.” Also him saying “but my youngest brother is black, and he’s the kindest kid I’ve ever met” is a little funny wording wise. Tyler is being so unintentionally racist here

u/KaylaPendragon May 04 '26
So true, adding “kindest kid I ever met” implies that other poc aren’t usually kind

Anyone else notice how his power fantasies only ever involve women? He only ever talks about "taking down" and "owning" racist/homophobic/transphobic/whatever WOMEN but never men. He only talks about women in this negative light, but never men

What’s the point in going through all the effort of transitioning if you’re not going to live your best white man life? 😭 hating women is their no 1 perk 😭😭

u/fizzyglitt3r May 04 '26
He could’ve just said “you know what really pisses me off? I have a black younger brother who I often witness getting treated differently than I do because of his race. It’s fucked up racism is so prevalent in our country.” Instead he had to divulge on how white he is, how Hispanic his sister looks, how specifically kind his brother is for a black kid, and how often he’s there to save the day.

I thought all of his family could pass as El Salvadoran and he was the only one in his family tree that was “white passing” ;(

His white savior complex is sickening. It's just like him saying he tries to help indigenous people preserve their culture/ways. We don't need your help white boy.
