    A joke around the stereotype of white people playing at oppression like it’s something to be proud of rather than an ugly wound that has never healed.

      It’s making fun of white people for talking about the treatment of the Irish during the St. Patrick’s Day holiday.

      If it was about white people saying it during black history month, this would be a different conversation.

        Ah I didn’t read it like that at all. Going by the funny picture I took it as an excuse for a certain type of person who relishes taking their turn at the “oppression olympics.” I don’t really think we need to guess who this hypothetical asshole is educating about Irish oppression (which is real and who documented).
