Hahaha it's funny because it's a stereotype that only involves white people!

    Good thing white people are also known for their thick skin! Man they can take a joke, it's really hard to get under their skin. White people never lash out!

    Nobody is obligated to have thick skin. And "white people" is so broad of a definition with such a different cultural background that you can't assume how someone will react to prejudice based only on their skin color.

    This is making fun of performative wokeness, not white people.

    it's pretty common for those with underlying racist views to discredit and not see the value of someone based on their race or color.

    New memes and jokes often target white people through stereotypes, which is a literal form of racism by generalizing and demeaning an entire racial group. Common examples include:

    The "Karen" meme, which stereotypes middle-aged white women as entitled, demanding, and often racist—frequently used to mock perceived white privilege.

    Slurs-turned-memes like "mayo" (for mayonnaise-loving whites), "crackers", or "flour rangers"/chalk babies, reducing white people to racial caricatures.

    Jokes about white people not handling spicy food or awkward dancing in "white people be like" formats, reinforcing "bland" or clumsy stereotypes.

    These rely on racial generalizations just like any other racist humor, creating "us vs. them" divides. If we're against racism, it has to apply consistently...both ways
