“Be less oppressive, be less arrogant, be less certain, be less defensive, be less ignorant, be more humble, listen, believe, break with apathy, break with white solidarity” are listed as ways to become less white.What is the problem with that? From a distance (and quite frankly, up close in many of my personal experience), large prtions of the entire country need to be taught this.
I remember the original Coke commercial with Mean Joe Greene. Must have been late 70’s…I was in high school because I remember talking about it with my one token black friend. I’m kidding, I’m kidding…it was my token Hispanic friend. I’m still kidding…it was actually my Guidance Counelor. Ok, it was my Parole Officer, dammit. Happy, now?! >:(
The sad fact is that POC don’t live in the same country that white folks do. Borrowing from the psychotherapists’ handbook of tools, a little “trial identification” would be more than worthwhile. You got a problem with that, Mikey? Huh? Huh? Huh?
Mike must listen to the same right wing propaganda outlets that some of the other conservative cartoonists do. This is the fourth cartoon about Coke and the “less white” thing that I’ve seen today. The fact that it’s nonsense doesn’t seem to matter to any of them.

What you expect from Li’l Mikey Lester, jump on a meme you like without finding out if it’s true.

O, doesn’t yer heart go out to Lester?
Ya know, Coca Cola discriminating against him so mercilessly and making him into a VICTIM?
.
Not that a Trump Disciple would LIE about something like that, eh?

I’m more proud of being white now more than ever. I’m beginning to dislike blacks a lot more too.

For the lo-fo and sky screamers crowd who would not accept the truth then blame OrangeManBad. LOL

The racist “training” was later removed from LinkedIn Learning Series.
