I would love to get on as well. But you've shown that you're not willing to believe PoC about their experiences with racism. If you truly do just want to be friends with people, you should reconsider the way you interact with people online.

I, for one, am not willing to brush racist gaslighting under the rug. You should also probably do some thinking about why you're willing to "get on" with me, the white guy, and not with anyone else in this conversation.

One problem with that theory. As far as I know you are a small, cute, and decidedly non-white dog. This off-brand pop-psychoanalysis is doing you no credit. It feels less like an attempt to persuade, and more like a Trumpian attempt to appeal to your 'base'.

I mean yeah, you caught me, I don't think you're engaging in good faith so I'm not trying to persuade you would you like a cookie

Lmao he goes from trying to be buddy buddy with you to calling you Trumpian. Guess he realized that he couldn't try to connect with you over your shared whiteness and decided to shift totally in another direction.

BTW, it's not pop psychoanalysis to interrogate why you might be reacting differently to a white man vs a white woman vs a Black woman. That's like, racism 101 stuff, my guy, is understanding how pervasive racism is that it happens subconsiously.

Frankly, everyone responding here has been giving you way more time than you're worth. What exactly is your end goal here? What would you like to happen? You want everyone to suddenly say, oh yeah Paddy is right, we're all a bunch of white hating racists?

I mean it's not gonna happen, so maybe you should expend your energy elsewhere. Take up a hobby and stop being so goddamned obsessed with Dr MRO. It's transparent as hell, my dude.

I'm trying to help you to refine your ideas and be a bit less quick to make snap judgments about people who you do not know, so that you do not drive potential friends away through unnecessary hostility. And that could still happen.

Let me be clear: my ideas don't need any refinement from you when you're still out here not understanding what racism is, I don't want you as a friend period and I wish you'd leave Dr MRO alone, and I think my judgement of you is spot on.

And this would be a thoroughly patronizing comment if it wasn't so hilarious.

Umm, isn't this the person who didn't realize that the Irish weren't a modern race until like last month? And he wants to help you refine your understanding of race with clearly no grasp of it himself?pic.twitter.com/m6WJr0GuPc
