"how is this racist?" ~caucasian proverb


I understand why people think certain things are racist, but double standards are sad. The US is a prominently white community so of course their culture is going to be dominate. That is just how things work.

Lol, are you seriously trying to act like you set the standards?

Racism means another race is superior to another. To me that cartoon is just making that chick look like a joke, and enhancing her features as so makes her look like one.
That image doesn't scream this person is inferior to me because of their race.

labeling something racist just because a white man did it, is unquestionably racist
