I’d love to get macro-aggressive with the mush-head who thought up this asinine term.

I “feel” offended that my income isn’t equal to the kardouchians. Any relief? Nope, just proof that life ain’t fair.

What liberal Blacks and their enablers are doing is creating a self-fulfilling prophecy.

They are saying "hey Cracka, you hate me. Therefore I hate you. But my hatred is OK cause I'm Black."

And you respond with "I don't hate you. But knowing you hate me, I can feel myself getting angry at you. In fact, I might end up hating you if you keep this up."

Sorry, I refuse to believe in micro-aggressions.

If I’m going to aggress someone, I’m going full-bore macro.

Somehow I don't think people worry much about "micro-aggressions" in the real college classes, they don't have the time.

Apparently, “people of color” is okay but “colored” is racist. Or something.

Once everyone starts using "people of color", that phrase will be deemed racist, you know.

I’m glad there’s a class of people that can align their self-worth, perception of abilities, and social status around something that neither matters or can be controlled.

It leaves those of us who wake up hungry each morning a better chance of succeeding. Not because of some sort of privilege, but rather the desire to learn, work hard, adapt, and be accountable.

You’re of course right. But ridicule of this nonsense should be used early and often, and directly to the people advancing it. If I had someone make a favorable comment about microaggressions in polite conversation, I’d say the same thing back that I said here.

I’ve been saying for years that a degree in any of the “studies” majors makes you a less attractive job candidate than a high school graduate. At least you haven’t been trained to be a victim at the university level.

I get nocturnal microaggressions all the time. I don’t know how to stop them, they just happen.

So a study finds that blacks are “uncomfortable” around whites for no reason other than our skin color.

Recent instances of physical violence tend to indicate that whites have more reason to be "uncomfortable" around blacks.

Stop being offended.

Everyone, everywhere, stop being offended.

Problem solved.

"That leaves us with red and yellow. Or those blue people from Pluto."

Speaking of blue people, google "Methemoglobinemia".

Maybe they should pass a law and post signs.

Don’t create an artificial group and put me in the group and then tell me that I have certain characteristics because I’m in the group.

I didn’t give you permission to put me in your group, so STFU!.

If Blacks would dedicate even 20% of the energy the use trying to think up things to be offended over, to improve their lives by their own efforts, they would conquer the world.

I always say that about hackers and scammers too.

I do as well. I agree with your take on things. If the evil would simply expend their energy on good things, they could accomplish much and not have to fear getting caught.
