Making fun of black people names is so ingrained that I think a lot of people sincerely don't know how racist they are being.

you were warned posted:Especially when it hits the fever pitch of "my mom's friend's sister's neighbor's cousin is a nurse, and she delivered twin black babies named Orangejello and Lemonjello CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?!" Even crazier when someone claims they know the person who personally witnessed it. They want it to be true so badly. The dash don't be silent.

TacticalUrbanHomo posted:I will maintain that white people aren't being racist simply by making fun of dumb made-up black people names if they treat dumb made-up white names the same way It's possible to be even handed on this issue for sure. It doesn't happen that often I think because anyone that self aware is usually also aware that all names are made up.

Chief McHeath posted:This is pretty much what happened to a co-worker of mine with four month old twins. Jonathan, ok, Jaxon, not ok. Just name him Jackson. That's fine. The whole workplace worked for weeks to convince her Jackson with the X was terrible and boom, baby Jackson. What's it like being a staff writer on Mary Worth?
