Don’t worry OP, I’m an actual POC and speaking on behalf of all POCs (I’m not), your post was very funny and not erasure. It’s important to celebrate IBPOC achievements but many of our experiences to getting those achievements in predominately white spaces are in fact “oh fuck, a bunch of annoying crackers”
thank you for this comment it changed my perspective slightly, genuinely. :)
i just don’t know. the post still seems to have an excessive hate boner for the artistry of these inspirational Black American performers, what with the “easier to enjoy drunk” and all. im trying to put myself in the shoes of a young POC performer being absolutely incredible and thriving against the odds in this white dominated space in 2024, and if i saw my contribution to the world being compared to airplane food? i would have to guess i’d be pissed.
this meme is insulting in a way that #oscarssowhite is not. i can see why my take on it is controversial and i definitely have nothing against OP. anyway thanks again.
Thanks. You know who REALLY got burned, during this whole exchange? The airlines. Nobody wanted to defend them. Everyone comes together, in a true spirit of pan-ethnic harmony, when it comes to shitting on air travel.
