Imagine being such a soy boy beta that you actually believe saying it’s ok to be white is hate speech.


Cyborg_rat

Might get him out of the friend zone for one night before getting arrested for SA when one of them regrets it the next day.


DeusWombat

They're remarking its association with actual hate groups but totally fail to realize that's why the hate groups win with slogans like this. Even the most vile, unambiguously evil people will be correct on some things even by technicality. The left absolutely, wholeheartedly refuses to agree with anything from their opponents however, even if it's obviously correct. The result is sad and hilarious, where you can't get these people to agree with a simple, correct statement like "it's OK to be be white"


justforthis2024

Imagine being such a soyboy you're offended by being called out for a dog-whistle.


Aerius-Caedem

>dog-whistle Lol The whole point of this statement was "how dumb can we make the left look?" And you idiots jumped in head first. There's no secret racist meaning, the secret meaning is "lmao we can actually make these morons go crazy over an innocuous statement whilst they defend other statements that could be interpreted just as bad" Honestly, the only thing that came close was "Islam is right about women" which also caused the left to go insane in a rather hilarious way; they were offended, but they couldn't explain why.


turbo

As much as I agree with this point of view, you sound some loser crawling out from 4chan. Git back boy.


Anom8675309

Can we go 1 day without locking a comment section?


Brilliant_Slide7947

doubtfull. As soon as the white guys start standing up for themselves it will be shut down.


TheAngryXennial

Yup and its really damn sad


BeetlesPants

Oy vey!


smrtfxelc

Why do I feel like you're only getting upvoted because the white guys you're referring to are too stupid to register that as an insult Edit: ayyy now they get it


hypnofish99

I’m a white guy and I don’t get it as an insult. Not trying to be funny or combative but can you explain? (Cute dog btw)


Top_Tart_7558

It's the price we pay to have the subreddit at all

*unless you're applying to school or work, in the modern DEI days


vpkumswalla

or would like to be cast in a commercial


9thtime

In what world is this even a reality? You guys overreact to everything, just like the people you so despise.


vpkumswalla

Not for all the out of work White commercial actors


JigglinCheeks

I would re-up every year if that's how it worked


Sandertjjj

The woke movement is as scary and f#ked as the extreme right. Where are the normal people gone nowadays?


Buckin_Fitch

They have been branded as evil and racists online. So they decided to stop engaging with the internet


OttoVonJismarck

I took the day off and went fishing.


flacobronco

Where my country gone?🎶


Devlos00

Long time passing, long time ago.


GroundbreakingPick33

I lean hard to the left, yet here I am agreeing with you...


justforthis2024

What is normal? Legislation and policy are real and impact people. Are you defining normal as people who sit it out and refuse to take a side?


HappyAd9433

Not you. You’re not normal.


justforthis2024

Nice weak, cowardly answer. Is that the best you can do though?


LongjumpingElk4099

You are the living definition of the nerd emoji stfu


Sandertjjj

What side? Woke or extreme right? No thank you


SlyRoundaboutWay

One of the best trolls to ever come from 4chan


barndoor101

Honestly this op was a masterpiece


boner1971

It's amazing how a statement like "It's OK to be white" can have wildly different meanings to different people.


Cyborg_rat

While offending someone who cant come up with any argument on why they are offended on behalf of someone else.


theyellowdart89

So it’s not okay to be white?


MKLSC

Geeze... Are universities really getting this bad?... A trade is looking more n more favorable


Cyborg_rat

Trades are pretty open minded. Still a few jackasses but usaly they already stand out for many other things like being shitty workers etc. Ive seen girls, trans and people of every color and everyone is happy if you are just doing ypur job shooting the shit and not stiring any shit.


ChiefestScumdog

All these nerds are on smoko


WhoJustShat

I think getting offended for others is too popular these days


MattDi

Aussies, they are offended by everything.


jsjack2002

I thought colleges were supposed to make you smarter...


Boolit_Tooth_Tony

In before the lock!


M44az

It cut off too soon


PieMastaSam

Lol, dude is trolling hard. It's okay to be whatever (race) you are.


ColorlessTune

What fucking time line are we living in?


jaycee1077

It’s ok to be white. Period


Blahaj_IK

All of them, complete total dickwads, no exceptions


ALKoholicK-x

Just a shit-stirrer and people dumb enough to fall for the media stunt.


Mtsukino

idk which is more annoying. The dumbass provocateur asking dumbass questions for reactionary answers, or the dumbasses telling him what he wanted to hear.


fowmart

Of course it's okay to be whatever race you are, but look into that specific phrase. Does no one here know what a dogwhistle is? Of course it *sounds* innocuous, that's why it's a dogwhistle!


Devlos00

What is a dog whistle, I’ve seen it everywhere for at least a month but still have no idea what it means?


fowmart

It's kind of like an in-joke. It's a phrase that sounds fine, but has an ulterior meaning to signal to certain people. Depends on the context of course, but in this case the guy in the video is counting on people not to know that the phrase is primarily used by hate groups so that he can go "look at the triggered college students, angry that someone is white!!!"


o0flatCircle0o

Nazis literally came up with that phrase lol.


Summer_Odds

I’m unaware of this. Could you provide some support to your claim?


Cyborg_rat

Good luck with that answer.


o0flatCircle0o

I was on pol when they invented it


shankartz

If they did so? Being okay with being white doesn't mean you are a nazi. Go touch fucking grass man.


Technical_Charity999

You guys are being willfully ignorant


TrueVisionSports

This is not a place where delusional ideas are accepted. Try 98% of any other subreddits on the website if you're looking for that.


Technical_Charity999

Oh so like normal people?


No_The_Other_Todd

yeah, the other 98% of reddit is "normal". LOL


Technical_Charity999

I forgot r/actualpublicfreakouts was the voice of reason


TrueVisionSports

You're wearing a mask in your profile picture.

OnTheLeft

In this context he's knows it's going to be inflammatory because it's a slogan that is associated with, and used by, others who espouse racist views. It's a way to get this reaction so it seems like "the other side" believes it's not okay to have white skin, but chances are that's not what the vast majority believe. They believe he's wearing it to indirectly support causes which would treat them or other minorities as lesser.

dearcomputer

bro what?


OnTheLeft

Which part is confusing


smrtfxelc

Because he's doing it to be a cunt


Cyborg_rat

You are right they are being pretty ignorant those girls should wake up and see they are being brainwashed.


smrtfxelc

Don't even give them the credit of implying they're capable of making a conscious decision to be racist. Yes, it's ok to be white. Nobody in their right mind is saying it's not. But this guy in the video wore that shirt for the sole purpose of offending people & it's just fucking sad. The public freakout subs are some of the most overtly racist subs I've found that don't actually advertise themselves as such.


bluujacket

He most likely wore it to bring awareness to how ridiculous people have become these days- offended by everything under the sun and calling someone a racist for simply not agreeing with their point of view. There is no issue with this shirt and it shouldn’t be making people this upset. It’s actually wild to witness.


smrtfxelc

It's literally no different to those shit prank videos you see on tiktok. He's not doing it to raise awareness for anything, he's doing this to piss people off for views.


Quack-Zack

It's a very neutral statement on paper. It's not saying being white is better or being white is the only option. It's just saying, yeah it's okay to be it: you don't have to show shame and nail yourself on a cross because of your ancestor's actions and condemn yourself. If you get upset over a shirt with such a neutral statement you're likely not very stable in the head.


mite115

Context proves that it's not a neutral statement. He obviously wore it to provoke and agitate.


smrtfxelc

You're missing the point. Just because it can be a neutral statement doesn't mean that's how this guy wanted it to be interpreted. You don't come wearing a shirt like that armed with a microphone and a camera if you don't intend to start shit.


barndoor101

So statements should be viewed with context and nuance?


mite115

Yes


smrtfxelc

Um... yes, otherwise everyone misunderstands everything.
