I was in China and saw my business partners trying to eat a Big Mac with chop sticks. What is racist about it?

There will come a time when...

We’re not supposed to notice the difference in the races.

We’re not supposed to notice the differences in genders.

We’re not supposed to notice the differences in religions.

We’re not supposed to notice the differences in nationalities.

We’re not supposed to notice the differences in sex-partner preferences.

We’re not supposed to notice the differences in intelligence.

We’re not supposed to notice the differences in ages.


In the end, we’re supposed to pretend that, the world is something very different from what the real world is like.

We must pretend to be brain dead.

Why is it not racist or cultural appropriation to wear a hijab to show solidarity to Muslims?

I look forward to that day. Because then we will not be expected to notice the difference in good smelling air and bad smelling air, and I can eat my White Castle sliders along with my Taco Bell bean burritos peace in whatever elevator.
