The ACLU has apologized for perpetuating “white supremacy” after some on Twitter took offense to a tweet featuring a white baby.
In a tweet on Wednesday, the ACLU posted a photo of a child wearing a “free speech” onesie with the text, “This is the future that ACLU members want”:
Instead of noticing the shirt the baby was wearing, some people immediately took offense to the tweet including a white baby:
Anthropologist Michael Oman-Reagan suggested he would rather have a future featuring black characters from science fiction films:
In response to the uproar, the ACLU thanked its Twitter follows for bringing attention to the fact that "white supremacy is everywhere" -- apparently even in merely posting images of white babies:
The ACLU then issued another tweet clarifying they meant to highlight ACLU onesies, not white babies:
Of course, that wasn’t enough. One Twitter user remarked the tweet made her “afraid” since it featured a blonde baby that somehow symbolizes “white supremacy”:
Another person claimed the tweet should be deleted since it “smacks of ethno-nationalist propaganda”:

Gee, this thread looks like it has an awfully large amount of white space...
Racist!
Haha!
I love that the ACLU was attacked by the left. Schadenfreude for all my friends!
These Leftists clearly hate sll white people even whit devil babies that did nobody any harm because they are born with the original sin of having white skin/ancestors...
Seen on facebook, regarding this:
When the mind waits for the media mantra to know what it should think.
They won’t be happy till all the white folks in America are dead, and then they’ll just find something else to complain about, I’m sure.
The left becomes enraged by the image of a white child on Twitter. Yeah, they’re going to stop at “monuments of Democrats”, sure they will.
Someone quipped that in the picture, the baby should be burning the flag.
White babies are racist? Of course they are, according to them all whites are racist.
I hate DEMOCRATS
Free speech is not racist. MLK used free speech to reach all of his civil rights goals. Leftist idiots everywhere use free speech to express their ideology.
These idiots are now quintupling down on stupid....
White people should be photoshopped out of all photographs that are published in print or on the web?
When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. The left's only working issue is victimization. Racism is their biggest. If you are white, you are racist by default. If you don't fault whites, then you are racist regardless of your skin color or ethnicity.
WAKE UP, you Millennials and so called “independents” and “moderates” and what’s left of you “conservative demonrats”
This is what you help vote in . . or not vote in by sitting things out. Is this really the country you want? Are these the nutcases you want with ANY power?
The only way to CHANGE FOR THE BETTER is to vote the bastards out who create and encourage this aberrant behavior and attitudes. Don’t patronize the media, don’t buy their advertises products and services. This is the America they are making, and you are much responsible for it.
As I said, WAKE UP
“I AM SpartaLee”
Many extremist black people have called for the murder of white babies lately.
It seems to be the cool new thing with those Neolithic savages.
Racism could be over in a generation if people stopped teaching people to hate (and hammering it into them that one one will ever see anything but the color of their skin).
It’s a generationsl hamstring.
King County councilmember Larry Gossett isn’t a fan of one solution to power wash the feces from the sidewalks to tamp down on the smell. Power washing the sidewalks is too reminiscent of civil rights activists being hosed down, he said.
Larry Gossett has wandered into previously unexplored realms of madness,
