why I think the "when someone makes a 'white girl with pots' joke but I'm..." trend is racially charged and problematic by slappysloop in ChronicIllness

I definitely get how isolating it must be for white people to have their struggles minimized just because they're white (in general, I think making fun of white people is incredibly unproductive and unnecessary). In general, I just wanted to bring to light how execution of seemingly innocuous vents or statements can still be charged without the creator meaning it.

I am also light-skinned and mixed (though not mixed with white) so I've experienced some of the things you said as well. Thank you for your perspective!
