For the first time in NBA All-Star game history there are no white players.

Anger isn't the way to solve things, agreed, but it's easy to keep a cool head when you don't carry the emotional baggage accumulated after years of having your self esteem and confidence chipped bit by bit.

It was hard in high school for many people to fit in, for being emo, for being short/abnormally tall, for being fat, for being too skinny, for having acne, for being poor....How about any or all of that, but with the added benefit of being born with brown skin or with a slanted pair of eyes?

I'm trying to be as un-SJW (or whatever the fuck reddit calls anyone who displays any semblance of social liberalism) as possible, but the general consensus on this 90%white website seems to be: "man, nobody wants to hear about that race shit, don't be such a bitch and keep that shit to yourself". No matter how reasonable the argument, you're bound to be called an 'SJW'. And don't show me some obscure example pulled off from the depths of Tumblr's anus to tell me that Social justice and Political correctness is a bigger problem than racism.

By reddit's definition, 75% of black and about 50% of Asians would be considered 'social justice warriors'.

Not sure how SJWs think they'll get racist people less racist by screaming at them about nothing. Quite the clusterfuck.

Not sure how people suffering from depression think they'll get any less depressed crying about nothing.

Redditors pretend to be rational, they pretend to be colorblind, but they're giving people the same shit they accuse every Tumblrina. A lack of empathy and a casual disregard for issues other people see as important. I wouldn't take shit from someone telling me that basketball is so inconsequential that I shouldn't get angry and emotional over a Pistons loss.
