If you ever been micro aggressed before?

Posted on 04/16/2015 3:31:51 PM PDT by MNDude

It's reported that Micro aggression is the new face of racism. It is unintentional yet powerful form of racism\sexism.

Racial experts have used examples such as a white guy asking an Asian person for help on homework or picking a black guy first to be on his basketball team.

As I thought about it, I fear i have been the victim of micro aggression several times in my life as well, and I have been feeling very troubled. I'm m sure I'm not alone here.

In what ways have people committed micro aggression towards you in the past?

Do if me picking a black guy first for basketball is a micro aggression, is the knock out game a macro aggression?

Thanks. These perpetually aggrieved clowns don’t even know what hypocrites they sound like.

The Leftists have a penchant for ascribing names to things we wouldn't even deign to name.

Once they name them, they can invoke them at will, in the context they create, and we are boxed in and wind up playing their game because they've hijacked the language and have framed the terms of debate.

My surname is at the end of the alphabet. I have been the victim of alphabetization discrimination. It is relentless. It is time to reverse the beginning of the count.

A lot of young waitresses have adopted the phrase, "No problem" when I place my order:

"I'd like a cheeseburger and fries."

"No problem."

"I'd like the fish and chips."

"No problem."

"I'd like the clubhouse sandwich with the chicken noodle soup."

"No problem."

Why is my ordering something on the menu treated as if it's a potential problem?

Actually that’s really true. Last year, this black girl had an obsession touching my 6 year old daughter’s hair.

It kind of became a problem when she had lots of sticky caramel on her hands the day of school photos.

And I have an uncommon last name which is often mispronounced and misspelled. I am a victim of Uncommon Name Discrimination. It's time that we as a society address the issue of Common Name Privilege.

The subtle message here is that white people should avoid people of other ethnicities lest they be accused of ‘micro-aggression”.

And remember, there’s nano-aggression, followed by (horror of horrors) pico-aggression.

Oh the huge manatees.

I use quark aggressions on people. But I doubt any has ever seen them.

Yeah, some “teens” walked real slow in front of my car as I waited to make a right turn. (group of 4)
They hate stared at me.
I was as calm and patient as can be, of course I also have my Glock 22 within very easy reach.

That’s a great story. But I know I’m not the only FReeper that wants to know. What does liberal spit taste like?

Lol
