White Pride month is in July

Yea, we actually don't need white pride month. Only feeble minded emotional liberals require awards and tokens of approval. I get my satisfaction simply by doing my job well and raising my family to laugh at the nonsense out there.

"Are you tired of having to search for something to be oppressed by?" a voiceover says in the ad. "With our patented microaggression-tracking technology, you won't have to search any longer. Now, you can instantly identify up to 100 things to be offended by in any conversation."
The product will detect a wide range of microaggressions, including the following:

Manspreading
Mansplaining
Manbreathing
Manexisting
Lack of avocado toast
Cultural appropriation
Cultural exclusion

You can back the goggles for $99 at a base level or spend $4,999 on a deluxe edition that includes a white guy who will follow you around so you can claim to be even more oppressed. The Kickstarter creator believes they will ship within the next decade.

So glad I'm not employed by a BLM/feggit/jew-loving company. I couldn't take it. It's frustrating enough being told that your "whiteness" is a problem. I don't need that shit at work when I'm actually trying to produce something.

It's bad enough they take 40% of my earnings, then another 15% when I spend my money. I started working under the table again for about the same amount of money as I take home normally. I don't have to pay a faggy union to get emails from them talking about niggers and fags and womens rights. Fucking commies glorify everything that is evil. I may never pay tax on my income again, even if that means I live in a shack on some shitty land somewhere. I just can't contribute to my enemies anymore.

Move to rural Oregon. State politics are dominated by lefty loo loos in the Portland area but the counties are totally red and open carry requires no permit. Anyone that can work from home with an internet connection can make a good living here if you are not a farmer rancher lumberjack.

You are clearly consciously biased and at no risk of being unconsciously biased. Skip it.

"Every month is [white/straight/christian/male] month" they say.
Really? I must have missed that announcement on the fucking radio
[–] cdglow 0 points 3 points 3 points (+3|-0) ago
Maybe bring in a pack of white skittles on your desk to celebrate pride month, but really you’re personally celebrating white power month

I like the subtlety of that!

My employer sent some bullshit too

Did you reply that you are a black pan-trans-fluid and implying you have baise or can possibly be racist as a person with no power or privilege is showing his white male privileg?
[–] HeavyBrain 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) ago
Don't worry maybe some of the faggots including your boss will start second guessing if the ligh is really red or if the subway is still subject to Newtons laws.
We also dont have a pride month, we have millenias which can be seen by 99% of shit you use daily (100% if you live in an urban area)

Good, don't attend any of this shit as planned. Meanwhile, why not look for another job?
