    As a white dude, I would be horribly embarrassed to do something like that. I hope the guy in the story learned a lesson from it.

      If this ever happens, all it needs is an acknowledgement of the mistake and an apology. It’s very easy to fix!

          Sorry for being born as the two most privileged groups.

          At least I’m a gay, fatherless and poor. Its all ok, put your pitch fork down

        What are you saying? If I go out and do some horrific thing you aren’t personally responsible and should feel shame for being a white male?

        That’s completely unacceptable.

          I almost killed myself because I felt responsible for Hitler’s actions when I learned about them at school 50 years later

            That’s fucking disgraceful BTW you should be shamed of yourself for what Hitler did.

            All my family got bombed by the Germans or directly fought against them but I feel personally responsible for the crimes white men I’m not related to in anyway did to my ancestors.
