Last Seen…Talking about White People – MiGS Ep. 234

To hear it from some people (like, say…an orange-tinged shitlord with a sulfurous-looking hairdo who’s presumable in charge of the Western world), white people have it soooooooooo hard!

That a middle-aged (or Baby Boomin’) white guy can say with a straight face, “There’s no other group who has it worse than Christian white males,” says so much about white privilege.

And so, Gorilla Shawn thought two white guys talking about white people would make for a good episode…and it did. (Although, some shitty white people might not agree…)

We kick it off talking about the first time we noticed the differences between white people and other races or cultures. We discuss what the experience was like, and then we move on to the whitest people we know.

To that point, though…is there even such a thing as “being white,” either racially or culturally?

After that, we discuss if anyone should be proud of being white…and if anyone should be ashamed if they happened to be born white?

Find out if we think we see the world in a different manner than someone who’s black. (Spoiler: we don’t get pulled over when simply driving a decent vehicle.)

Shitty white people sure have been more vocal, lately. We devote some time discussing who’s to blame for the rise in white supremacy, lately…and then we chat about ways to fix that problem.

In popular culture, there are things deemed rather white (like really bad dancing). Find out the “whitest” thing we’ve ever seen…and learn about the whitest things we’ve ever done.

Finally, we wrap it all up with what the future looks like for white people…
