My friend is a practicing Buddhist who is a white guy. He NEVER EVER talks about that symbol like that. He never regrets what it looks like for a white person to have that symbol around and he doesnt feel as if he is somehow losing out by not having the ability to brandish that symbol in good faith.

People who whine like this also feel like their free speech is diminished cause they cant say the n word without having to swallow some teeth.

It’s rather simple. Not everything under the sun needs to be expressed by a white person. Not everything under the sun needs to come out of a white person’s mouth.

I had this edge phase when I was thirteen where I plastered my MSN status with swatsikas. When people got mad about it in chat I told them it was a peace symbol for some eastern religion and they all went: ‘oh sorry man didn’t know that’

I have certainly grown since then.
