I don’t understand racial or ethnic hatred. I know people pick on blacks for loving fried chicken and watermelon. Who doesn’t love fried chicken and watermelon? How big of a hypocrite do you have to be to say, “I hate black people. They love fried chicken and watermelon!”

I agree. I don’t know why people just don’t mind their own business and let everyone live their life.

You are channeling Dave Chapelle. I didn't know I was genetically predisposed to like fried chicken and watermelon!

No-one says “I hate black people. They love fried chicken and watermelon!”

It's just a form of kidding, like "Russians drink a lot of vodka" or "Greeks open restaurants".

Everyone likes fried chicken and watermelon. The problem, with black americans, is the history of racial subjugation in the country pre-civil war and the grievance factory the left has built out of it. I read an article that expected to be taken seriously where a black woman said that A MEDICAL DOCTOR was being “racist” to her because he told her she needed to lose weight and eat less fried chicken.

“When Joy Cox, an academic in New Jersey, was 16, she went to the hospital with stomach pains. The doctor didn’t diagnose her dangerously inflamed bile duct, but he did, out of nowhere, suggest that she’d get better if she stopped eating so much fried chicken. “He managed to denigrate my fatness and my blackness in the same sentence,” she says.”

It’s pretty damn stupid that someone, anyone, would think that eating fried chicken is a part of her “blackness.” It’s like saying liking steak frites is somehow a part of Frenchness.
