Oh I know, I wasn't criticising.
Why the hell you Americans divide white/black everything?
I'd like to take the opportunity to ask.. what the hell is this community about? I saw it in Reddit and I didn't get it either.
Is this mocking white people, like "first world problems" kinda deal? Like they are so privileged, they are detached from reality, and we need to mock their detachment in a specific place where everyone joins, points fingers at them and laughs? I have no problem with that, I'm really asking.
If anyone is wondering, I'm a light skinned Latino who grew up being called white in his country but then was called dark skinned in the US. I'm too privileged for my country but not privileged at all for US standards.
It's the white version of black people Twitter
But why does a black version even exist?
So is this a sub created by white people who felt excluded from the black people community?I really need to know. This has bugged me for quite some time.
I've always taken it as stuff that the stereotypical white person would enjoy, in this case from Twitter. There's a few "white people thing" type subreddits (and now Lemmy communities), not just Twitter.
It's a specific brand of humour that is stereotypically associated with pasty white cracker types.
You might be overthinking this.
Does this mean the title is meaningless or makes no sense and this is just a "any Twitter post" community?
steal it for irl actions
