        @TheOnion this is a garbage post and 1 of the reason we have such racial tension in this country! Getting jobs are hard regardless of race!

        @art_knott Yes, a post lampooning the racism in America is causing the racial tension, not than the racist [mostly white] people. @theonion

        @art_knott @MindForgedOne Satire like this isn't what makes racism worse. Keeping system predisposed to maintain white privilege makes worse

        @Steftyem but anyone with a brain knows garbage like this just perpetuates the cycle. And by its very nature is racist & counterproductive

        @TheOnion for both sides. If the verbiage in this article were changed to be abt any other race it would be met w the criticism it deserves

        @TheOnion and when you create an even more vivid divide by saying all white males are privileged. It just gives an excuse to fall back on.

        @TheOnion not sure if this is bad satire of SJW culture or the Onion has just become completely racist against white men

        @TheOnion The quality of the HDMI cable doesn't matter, with digital you either get it or not. Much like satire.
