dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Department of Education now asks FAFSA respondents of race "white" to be specific about what type of white

Channeling my inner anglo and confidently asserting that the Irish aren't white

Sorry Polish people and Italians, you're on the chopping block

finally, my race science dissertation on tracking the education of the Welsh has influenced US policy.

What new categories are there

[–] fox@hexbear.net 27 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Eastern Europeans, Irish, Italians, Greeks, Moorish Spanish. Really anyone with body hair or the wrong kind of accent

[–] LeeeroooyJeeenkiiins@hexbear.net 16 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (2 children)

I mean I know that's what ye olde raciste crackeres would exclude but are those actual categories on this FAFSA thing

[–] ChaosMaterialist@hexbear.net 21 points 2 months ago

In the video they screenshot a list. Here's what I can see:

✅ White


⬜ German

⬜ Irish

⬜ English

⬜ Italian

⬜ Polish

⬜ French

Other White - If you want to ... [cuts off]

[–] Tervell@hexbear.net 15 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

I've linked the tweet this came from in the post, but honestly the real categories aren't far off from what @fox@hexbear.net posted (other than Moorish Spanish)

love the "Other White" at the end

[–] LeeeroooyJeeenkiiins@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago

[–] lib1@hexbear.net 24 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I have like 4 different types of white in me. Am I considered mixed now?

[–] Riffraffintheroom@hexbear.net 20 points 2 months ago

No, you have to pick one. Or rather, they pick one by measuring your skull.

[–] take_five_moments@hexbear.net 13 points 2 months ago

[–] tombruzzo@hexbear.net 20 points 2 months ago

Whiteness is a made up term and it expands and contracts proportional to how much fascism is in an area

[–] Ithorian@hexbear.net 14 points 2 months ago
[–] robot_dog_with_gun@hexbear.net 13 points 2 months ago

Ben Franklin is so back.

Which leads me to add one Remark: That the Number of purely white People in the World is proportionally very small. All Africa is black or tawny. Asia chiefly tawny. America (exclusive of the new Comers) wholly so. And in Europe, the Spaniards, Italians, French, Russians and Swedes, are generally of what we call a swarthy Complexion; as are the Germans also, the Saxons only excepted, who with the English, make the principal Body of White People on the Face of the Earth [...]
