Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

What is wypipo?
It's a phonetic slur for "white people". Try to say it.
I didn't know we needed such a word.
You can call me whatever you want, but I will adjust my expectations of anyone using skin color based slurs to generalize people - regardless of the color.
🤣🤣🤣
Call me when you get strung up to be hung by a sheriff calling you wypipo. Then you can call it a slur.
The cop called me "a destitute" the last time I was arrested. Does this count?
Nope.
And, the whole ordeal would have been worse if you were black. It seems you're struggling with the juxtaposition of white privilege and being treated like a poor person. All whiteness gets you is "better treatment than the exact same scenario if you were not white". That's it. It does not confer any guarantee of good treatment or success or wealth or anything at all. It confers only that one specific thing I pointed out.
I'm sure you are being treated poorly, I'm sure you've got it bad. Whiteness only gets most people "first slave" picked for the "good slaving". Unfortunately, historically that's enough to divide and conquer.
You're describing American racism, and rightfully so, because wypipo is also an American reference to the privileged white American stereotype.
I'm not American, which is why I question the need for all these distinctions in the simple concept of hating everyone outside your own tribe.
This is a rhetiricical question though. You need these words because you're all American, and a majority of you hate everyone outside your own tribe.
"Whiteness" doesn't really refer to skin colour. Who is and isn't considered "white" (a surprisingly modern concept) is a often a rather complicated point of regional culture.
I've heard whiteness be described as "proximity to power", which seemed pretty accurate
Coming soon: no more honky tonk tones for the Irish and Italians, back to the undesirable heap with them.
Would this be algorithm speak though? I've seen in social media spell "wyt", which is probably to circumvent the algorithm censorship.
It's from twitter or something so possibly.
According to the following explanation, it's not really racist, but only used against the bad white people. I swear I've heard this before somewhere..

🤣🤣🤣
Show me on this doll where the sun touched you. I know it's hard, but this is the only way we can stop him from hurting others.
