Why is it only white guys do it?
I just saw a video of some guy tricking black people into saying “white power” using drink mixes and then I thought about it. Of all the race based pranks I’ve encountered on the internet either on YouTube or in the news, it’s always a white male doing it.
Like the one where an 18 year old kid did a PA at Walmart saying, “All black people leave the store now”.
Or another one where a kid walks through a convenience store blasting “Swiggity Swag”, a song made to highlight negative stereotypes of black people as a “prank”.
I tend to think of this like what Chaucer said, “Some of the greatest truths are said in jest”. The use of comedy to project true feelings but hiding behind “It’s just a joke bro!”. Apparently, stand up comedy has developed a problem of alt-right across the board bigotry in act’s because of this.
