I don’t know who needed to hear this but;
White people being called stupid by black people is not equal to hundreds of years of oppression, slavery, and Jim Crow.

Men being called dumb by women is not equal to millennium of women being treated lesser and still undervalued today.
Straight people being told they are idiots is not equal LGBTQ people still fighting for their rights. Straight people are not thrown out on the streets for being straight, LGBTQ people are.
Just because you don’t want to accept that some part or your identity oppressed other people, doesn’t mean you get to create reverse-racism or heterophobia. Those do not exist.
Are you mad an unchangeable aspect of you is being attacked verbally for nothing you did wrong?

Imagine your dreams being unachievable or entire lives being restricted because of your gender, race, or sexuality.
Just because you are offended some people are taking shots at you being white, straight, or a man does not mean you have been oppressed.
Being systematically put down for being a POC, a woman, or being LGBTQ is being oppressed. Deal with it.
