+50 liberal points
Yesterday I was talking to a buddy of mine who lives in a historically working-class Irish neighborhood of Philly called Fishtown. Like a lot of other inner city neighborhoods all over the Northeast, over the past decade or so it's becoming increasingly gentrified. Hordes of these upper-middle class twenty-something, ultra-PC white liberals have been swarming in like they're giving away free Vespas and non-prescription thick rimmed Paul Pfeiffer glasses.
One of these types just moved onto my buddy's block. So he's outside talking to the kid the other day and he asks him how he likes the neighborhood so far. Kid says to him "Well, I just wish Fishtown was more diverse." My buddy pressed him a little bit to see exactly what he meant. Kid says "It's a very
white neighborhood." Basically what the kid was saying to him was "I need a certain amount of brown people around me to alleviate my white liberal guilt."
Fishtown has been a white Irish neighborhood for as long as anyone still alive can remember. It's not a big secret. Fishtown is as Irish as Passyunk Square is Italian as Fairhill is Puerto Rican as Germantown is Black. What pisses me off is that this asshole specifically chose to move into a predominately white neighborhood then – perhaps in an effort to show how open minded and tolerant he is – starts complaining that there aren’t enough minorities around. Which is fucking ridiculous when you think about it. That's like moving to fucking Chinatown and complaining that there aren't enough Swedish people around.
You won't catch one of these liberals moving to Germantown, though - which is ripe for gentrification, by the way - you won't catch them moving up there. Because underneath all the superficial "we are the world" bullshit, all the shit they picked up in Cultural Studies class at their liberal arts college about how our entire American society is built for the sole purpose of crushing and belittling minorities that they love to regurgitate, underneath all of that they are scared of minorities, so they go out of their way to prove how unracist they are. They got no problem mocking some freckle faced drunk ex-con with shamrock tattoos on his neck standing outside the corner bar behind his back, though.
Well fuck you, asshole. Fuck you right in your liberal cracker ass.
Go back to fucking Bryn Mawr or Wayne or Cherry Hill or whatever fucking Caddyshackesque neighborhood it is you came from. Better yet, go up to Williamsburg, Brooklyn; that should be diverse enough for you.
Don't mistake my anger for any oldshool "they got their neighborhood, we got ours" bullshit. That's the type of thinking that leads good people to hate other good people without even getting to know them, but Oh how I hate these types of liberals who scrutinize eveything looking for any possible hint of racism, sexism, anti-semitism, anti-feminism, homophobia, transphobia, whatever they call hating disabled people, etc. etc. Hunting in every nook and cranny for evidence of "privilege" and when they find any hint of it they have to champion the cause by seeking grievances. And I'm a goddamn borderline socialist, too, but PC liberals like this make left wingers like me look like pussies. So if you do this please stop because you look like a hypocritical douchebag.
