    Lol

    Haha, yeah, human suffering and injustice are hilarious. Anyway, you're so smart, you figured out half of the answer, look at you! Wow!

    Yeah, native and black americans. So what's the point of the original comment? Should the USA have a white history month, learning about white prisoners of war being slaves 2000 years ago?

    You honestly have an issue with discussing the treatment of the Irish around the time of an Irish holiday?

    Only when it's used as an excuse to shut down conversation of the historical and current impacts of the enslavement of other peoples.

    Right, but in this scenario the African slave trade is being used to shut down the conversation of the treatment of the Irish.

    I didn't see anyone talking about the treatment of the Irish, but by all means go off.

    What exactly do you think this post is about?

    A joke around the stereotype of white people playing at oppression like it's something to be proud of rather than an ugly wound that has never healed.

    It's making fun of white people for talking about the treatment of the Irish during the St. Patrick's Day holiday.

    If it was about white people saying it during black history month, this would be a different conversation.

    Ah I didn't read it like that at all. Going by the funny picture I took it as an excuse for a certain type of person who relishes taking their turn at the "oppression olympics." I don't really think we need to guess who this hypothetical asshole is educating about Irish oppression (which is real and who documented).

    ??

    None of these are my struggles, except insofar as they happen to people. I might be ignorant but I'm not uncaring.

    Oppressed by your disregard for reality because it is not compatible with your generic corporate capitalism education.

    Uh huh? You haven't even asked me my perspective, but by all means tell me what I believe.

    I have had a "generic corporate capitalism education" like most people online. Did you not? How did you get woke to the gaps in your education?
