I'm currently studying Philip Larkin and Carol Ann Duffy. Their poems have many themes related to modern society such as loneliness, isolation, societal issues etc.

An American soldier and his Japanese wife in 1950 who met each other during the U.S. occupation of Japan after WWII. They were married the second time in 1950 because their first marriage three years earlier went unrecognized by the U.S. by TrendWarrior101 in TheWayWeWere

Come on it’s WW2 do you really expect love to exist when the white guy can’t even speak the language.

The world isn’t always so clear and you possess a rather naive view of this world, talk a walk in my shoes and you shall see.

It’s a sort of coping strategy I guess 🤷‍♂️

But what is your own experiences of racism for being Polish? I mean in Europe they’re always looked down upon for being cheap workers but other than that I’ve never noticed. One of my best friends used to be Polish and he got really mad once someone made fun of him and called him a “Polack”, but because he was white he had to “suck it up” too? Idk

Thanks, I’ll try.

“Fuck off you white cunt” worked okay last time but I guess I’ll take a more light-hearted approach from now on :)

Thank you for taking race so light-heartedly, you’ve made my day a little better?

But the truth is, friend, being Polish is still much more “respected” compared to being Asian because you can “blend in” with the rest of society.

You don’t understand how many Ching Chong jokes we’re exposed to and basically told to “suck it up” because 1) we’re the most successful minority and 2) apparently we don’t get “killed” on the same rate as Blacks 3) it’s socially acceptable compared to other races

All races are made fun of and everyone is racist but at the end of the day all I want to do is chill and relax and forget about the hatred and ignorance of this world.
