“I’ve actually never done a McDonald’s or Kentucky Fried Chicken commercial. I know that’s surprising.”

There goes someone overreacting again.
Generalizations lead to prejudices. Prejudice leads to racism. But far be it from me to criticize the free speech of white men. So go on, put it on your shirt if you're so fond of it: Black people love fried chicken. It's not illegal and no one is calling for it to be. |

So you are a non-White person telling White people their arguments, ideas, and opinions in a given topic are automatically less accurate purely because of their race, while simultaneous bemoaning racism? |
Here's some news for you: you're never going to really understand what it's like growing up as a black person in America, just like I or a black person will never really understand what it's like growing up white in this world, although Louis CK has a great bit that pretty much confirms my suspicions.

Yep, ignore everything else in my post. "It's not illegal and no one's calling for it to be", so untwist your panties. Maybe you'll sleep easier. Or work on that shirt. |
