When her friends confront her: ”But he’s never racist to me or my family”
Casting aspersions much? The vast majority of couples I know are hetero, and not one person is like either of these caricatures. Let's not pretend sexual preference has anything to do with these stereotypes. It's more likely to be the culture or social system you are familiar with.
This means YOU are the third couple of course /j
You got it!
It’s a joke
Seriously. Some people need to relax lmao
Are you claiming to know a representative set of Americans, and 1/3 of that representative set is not racist?
I think you're suffering from selection bias..
Yes.
me when the
when the shitpost doesnt exactly what i know
Verily
It's even worse when it's a mixed race couple!
(Source: I'm in a mixed race relationship)
So... are you the most racist man alive?
You didn't get the Salon article?
Real men read Saloon
Yes, and I blame my wife for it.
ELI5
I think the gag is that this person reading Salon, a progressive media outlet, is a person claiming or projecting progressive values yet is dating a bigot. Progressive dating regressive.
Aaaaah thank you very much. That helped
Lemmy just bring out the shit chart...
What do pieces of shit have to do wi-Ohhh
Post stool samples
Among Gen Z and Millennial Americans (especially the educated straight white middle class) there's been a divergence in political affiliations between men and women. But people still couple up, so hetero couples are seeing a lot more combinations of politically engaged progressive women who are in relationships with politically apathetic men (who also tend to be somewhat sexist and racist).
This comic points out that juxtaposition.
Tbf I'm not from America and I still know such couples
My only thing I know about Salon is that at one point, they had a piece about how depressing it was to live in a hacker house, and I was like "wait. I lived in this exact apartment". I remembered the Pinterest guy who lived in the closet. That was slightly surreal.
I know that guys.
It's me guy
Need that shirt.
The girl is both my sister's and the guy is both my brother in laws. They married losers
What about you? Is it 2/3 or 3/3? If you're hetero that is, and in a couple. Otherwise disregard this question or answer untruthfully.
"I can fix him" energy
Ok but why not use the original and not the jpeged to fuck version?
Pixels? In this economy?
What about bi(F)/bi(M) couples?
That's statistically more difficult to determine because they might have other preferences towards magazines and t-shirts.
Gay hate crime perpetrated
Ghayte
So there are no racist gay people? Lol
The existence of one doesn't preclude the existence of the other.
Him being a part of every third heterosexual couple must mean he has a lot of fem presenting partners. I'm sceptical of all of them being of an ethnicity he approves of...
Wat
Some shit or something idk
