Most of it is ego and just a desire to attack people (usually other whites) without guilt i find. If that werent thr case they would have more respectable interactions with whites who may be making mistakes but are engaging in good faith, which they rarely do

That's known as the "white savior". (Panel L3 in the graphic) The implication is that the relationship is asymmetrical. A textbook example from Hollywood is The Blind Side with Quinton Aaron and Sandra Bullock. (A film with a lot of other racial issues besides the overall white savior bias.)

@freemo

I've found that racism on the left is also biased against people of color, but they just aren't as open about it, even to themselves.

For example, all those Hollywood liberals (progressives) who chastise racism but then turn around and produce horribly racist films -- 8 of 10 films coming out of Hollywood are racially biased. And most of them feature those same "progressive" actors, directors and producers.

Yea thr fibula isnt weight bearing. Just a matter of waiting the 3 weeks

@Pat
Yea the left convinces themselves thry are doing it out of love and kindness sonehow. Thr right generally sees it more as tough love despite it being pure hate.

@timorl

Sure..

In the first panel it is softened compared to the people I might. They didnt simply date blacks because it made them progressive but because they actually felt whites were disgusting, racist people with no sex appeal (the equivelant of the right thinking blacks and minorities are ugly and violent and whatever else)

In the second panel there are countless examples of where liberals will go so far to compensate that blacks and minorities arent just in exactly equal perportions but in fact over represented to the extreme (for example companies that hire only women which I've seen on a few occasions).

@schratze

@timorl

I mean there are more extreme versions of the left too. I still maintain you are just viewing it that way because your on the left and are apologetic for the left more than the right... That said I'm not going to invest the time you did on every point, sorry, I dont have the energy for that. But I did read your comment fully.

@schratze

@timorl

There doesnt appear to be anything moderate about the right position to me.. both sides seem pretty extreme in this comic

@schratze

@timorl

I've also seen the most extreme literal racists on the left say things that are pretty much identical to the left-wing side too.. I've litrally heard people on the left who were white say they would only date minorities, for example.

@schratze

@schratze

Because its correct (albeit somewhat exaggerated to make a point.. The hope would be the people who exist on either of the right or left spectrum might learn something and modify their behavior (though I dont have high hopes for that)

@vance

@bakubased No you'd be paying either way... remove tips cost goes up 20% your still paying them.

@timorl

The right wingers would say the same just that it misrepresents them... funny that :)

@schratze

@schratze

Facts mostly :) The only people I've seen complain about this meme in the past are the people it represents perfectly :)

@lethe

@b6hydra I generally have no problem with someone criticising a religious idea. The issue is when you assume all members of a religion have the same interpritation as you. There is a huge gap between the words you might be able to quote out of a religious book and the views of a follower of a religion.
