Like, i can’t genuinely understand why I see so many post and memes about things like: “White people things that black people enjoy” “Black people things that white people should try” “Thing that Asian people should make others do”

It feels like people in the U.S. the moment they see someone skin color they immediately make sweeping generalisations about them (which sounds super racist to me but OK), which also makes integration more difficult, because instead of an interesting mixture of cultures it makes for immovable blocks of stereotypes

Am I just seeing a small bubble of content or missing something or what? Please explain it to me

    So a tiger ate your friend and your brain goes Lion = Bad

    That why humans tried to avoid predators for… the entire human history.

    But the brain also does this for humans and skin color… so here we are… 🤷‍♂️
