It may be difficult to know what it's like to be on the receiving end of white-on-anyone-who-isn't-white racism (particularly institutionalized racism) if you're white, but I don't think it's necessarily difficult to see or empathize with the effects of racism if you're white.

wow i'm glad i missed everything yesterday, but this:
white dudes trying to say something with comedy videos about racism which involve racist imagery or language seem to be more interested in the shocking lols than in saying anything (cf 'the amazing racist', if anyone remembers that piece of work...)

otm, like there isn't a single grand enlightening thought or piece of commentary that a white person can say about race that would ever excuse their decision to extend the life of one of our most racist traditions

Hundreds of the city's white residents have complained that the campaign's kick-off images and messages are offensive. The campaign, they say, blames all racism on whites and implies that white people aren't smart enough to recognize racism.

Who is Bon Iver? People seem to like him.
― one little aioli (Laurel), Monday, 13 February 2012 15:48 (twelve years ago) link
Although thanks to the people quoted in that tumblr, I now know how to pronounce his name.
guarantee you that half the tumblr whites reading that blog laughing at people for typing "bonny bear" went around saying "bon eye-ver" for at 3-6 months
― J0rdan S., Monday, 13 February 2012 15:48 (twelve years ago) link
oh I didn't know it was pronounced that way

"bon eye-ver" = how I thought it was pronounced up until I heard someone say it last week.

I like how the premise is to laugh at ppl who don't know who Bon Iver are but he's such a precious humourless stan he ends up just putting anyone in who speaks ill of their music

i love that whoever made this blog added this
Of course, this blog would not exist if not for Paul Tao's brilliant whoisarcadefire, so props to him for that.
yes, thanks to paul tao for breaking the "who is" tumblr glass ceiling. without him, none of us would be where we are today, laughing at people on the internet that we think are stupider than us.

Justin Vernon is the dude's name, Bon Iver is a nom de plume or a band depending on how many people are playing
