    Ugh seriously it’s so often these dipshits who think their race makes them special. Like I get that they probably are reaching deep into the barrel to find anything that makes them special it’s not like they can fall back on their personalities, intelligence, appearance, or achievement. So they’ve got to brag about not having much melanin when for other folks it’s just a physical feature we have that’s unfortunately got several centuries of baggage to it.

      This one detail is responsible for the kernel of sadness I feel for many on the far right. These are despicable people who were once kids who just wanted to be grownups and do grownup things. And whether due to genetics or due to upbringing, anything else that might have given them a sense of pride and competence is not something they have. As you say - all they have left is trying to push others down, hoping this lands them on top. Damn it’s truly sad.
