- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen

I wonder if having absolutely no white friends until I was 6 is why I don't give a shit about race. Everyone I knew back when I was living in San Jose was Mexican, Black or Asian. I have no memories of playing with any other white kids until my family moved to the central valley when I was 5 going on 6.
Yuuup, people don’t believe me when I say that my pasty white butt was in the minority growing up. I’m pretty sure my middle school in SJ was about 50% Vietnamese only, not even accounting for other POCs.
I can't remember who said it. Chris Rock, maybe?
If there are 10 Black kids in a school with 500 White kids, the White parents will tell you their school is integrated
If there are only 10 White kids in a school with 500 Black kids none of the parents think the place is integrated.
Y’know, sometimes I forget Chris Rock used to have a functioning brain.
Ah, did he go the route of Chappelle? I haven't seen anything recent.
Sadly yes. I think he lost himself in his stage persona.
