My nephew (by marriage) usually is beyond Liberal in his own leanings / ideals. Most of his FB posts are often 'woe is me... life is depressing' type of shit that drives the family a lil nuts.
Today he's dealing w/some weird shit though (for him)... cuz as I said—he's probably one of the more left-leaning kids in the family (every day on Facebook is a bash Trump kinda day with him). But—He's finding that's not enough and that he's still 'unacceptable' in the eyes of his peers... here's a recent post from him:
"Roommate took it upon themselves to come into my room and angrily tell me "Everyone (meaning only them and one other person) wants to have a meeting about some problems you have with white privilege".
And then talked my ear off about this, brought in another sjw/very far left type roommate as well. I thought I was clearly uncomfortable but they didn't seem to pick up on that so I had no choice but to be like, "Yes, totally, I'm a white male devil etc.".
I don't interact with these people so much (I'm always off to work etc unlike actually both of them (Social Security)) and when I do it has nothing to do with race or gender or anything. I misgendered one of them a couple times when I moved in and maybe they perceive my ASD awkwardness as "white privilege" or some type of male aggression. Maybe I'm manspreading on the couch who knows.
But my guess is they're making assumptions about me and viewing my completely innocuous actions and words through their really unnecessarily liberal lens. I cannot think of a single time that I made a comment which could be perceived as racist or insensitive so either these people are operating at a superhuman level of sensitivity or I'm crazy.
But I don't have time to be lectured about something which barely affects my life with people I don't want to hear it from. That was apparently like a pre-meeting and they want me to come to an official lecture with youtube videos and homework and everything. There's no goddamn way I'm doing that.
I treat everyone with respect (same definitely can't be said for at least one of these people tbh) and I don't treat anybody differently due to their race and gender. So what else do I have to do? Do I just have to feel worse about myself and waste my time to make these hypersensitive cucks feel 110% comfortable and good about themselves?I know it's not the worst thing to learn about all sides of everything etc. (and I actually have.) but if I don't want a jehovah's witness to knock on my door then I don't need other enlightened better-than-everyone-else slightly crazy people to talk at me for potentially hours. Especially if I have to be polite and agree with them since they'll actually make my daily life shittier if I don't.
I really gotta get out of here I think."
- When you have your meeting, put your gun on the kitchen table and start cleaning it...robotron3k
- ^ yup. borrow a gun if you don't have oneGnash
- < it's not surprising that they're on social assistance.Gnash
- it's ironic that the gov't pays their salaryGnash
- smells like bacon********
- People who are heavily one way or the other are usually a real pain to deal with. In other words, someone who says "Liberals" or "Conservatives" constantly.section_014
- ^that's something those Liberals would say!eryx
- Seems to me those are just terms to move the conversation along, section...yes? If you like we can go back to saying 'dirty hippy' and 'corporate square'. :)PonyBoy
- Yes, I think cooking bacon may be a better idea than cleaning your gun in front of them. Lot's of bacon, thick and Canadian.robotron3k
- Seems like these oblivious cunts have accurately zeroed-in on a great technique for turning people conservative.detritus
- ^ funny how that worksGnash
- Lol racist uncle.pango
- racist uncle... by marriagePonyBoy
- Listen to them pony! They're woke!
LOL
Oh and I just found out woke is really a thing people say now... not sarcasm....pango - Don't mock.
Get woke, pango.
Geez.detritus - I can totally say "I feel you" after making me read all that shit. FB has become a whiner's heaven for people like him, smh.Maaku
- HIs average FB post is: "I hate my life." :/PonyBoy
- Do something to cheer him up? Buy him a lap dance or something.pango
- "I misgendered one of them a couple times" Oh man, I'm happy I'm not part of this new generation.inteliboy
- ‘I don't have time to be lectured about something which barely affects my life’ is the epitome of privilege.sr_rosa
- Alas there are and always have been extremes in all walks of life. What amazes me is how people seem to think this kind of stuff is something new.fadein11
- sr_rosa—the only 'epitome of privilege' shown in this story is where some social security tit-sucker thinks they can barge into someone's space...PonyBoy
- ... and start demanding their bullshit be heardPonyBoy
- I don't defend — don't think anyone could — that. But that mindset of ‘I think I'm a good person, don't make a big deal of anything’ is what privilege means.sr_rosa
- The problem is these kids don't feel they have any control in their lives and are unhappy due to it. Controlling you sounds like a way for them to feel_salisae_
- in charge. Ask them what they imagine they'll gain by educating you. Ask them if their time might be better spent volunteering or making their own youtube video_salisae_
- I'd give them a solid listen for a bit and then convince them that they're barking up the wrong tree._salisae_
- How are they on social security? Are they handicapped or retired?Greedo
- Q's I can't answer, Greedo. Didn't mean to sound so nasty about them being on SS either ('tit-suckers')... I have no idea why both roomies are on it.PonyBoy
- NH's laws pretty loose on collecting SS? (you're up that way Greedo—I know NH is far diff. than MA though)—I have no clue. I kind of want to know now myself...PonyBoy
- SS is a federal benefit, has nothing to do with states. And NH is a fairly poor state, they wouldnt just hand it out.Greedo
- Live free or die, all that. They're pretty republican up there. Not quite tea party crazy, but pretty conservative. No state income taxGreedo
