“It’s probably Matt Mercer’s fault.”
The standards of today, where white people feel they need to be outraged on my behalf, is highly annoying, and to my way of thinking, racist. My people are not child-like; if we are offended, we can speak up without help.
And yet, when they do speak up, there are those who try to discount that voice.
Also, your caricature of white people who feel the need to be outraged on your behalf is a gross exaggeration/generalization. There are always exceptions, of course, but for myself, as a white person who sides with those asking for change, I'm not outraged on anybody's behalf. I'm not even "outraged" by the content in question. I've heard the arguments and I think, "Yeah, that makes sense. I'll support these changes." If anything, I guess I feel a little sheepish for attitudes I held in my youth, when I usually mocked or belittled both the questions being raised, or the people raising them.
I guess it's ironic that when I do get fired up, it's for people acting like I used to. But it's not on anybody's "behalf".
