This is part 2 to episode 196. This episode has D., T., and Ken with no guests.
We continue to discuss "White Man's Whore Twitter," how it compares to similarly goofy things like Donald Glover's raceplay joke from his Weirdo standup comedy special, and we also try to figure out why Shea Butter Blavity Intersectionality is overtaking South African discourse, and contrasting that to Nigeria's attitudes. We also discuss how white people without nonwhite people to subjugate will always end up fighting amongst each other and how Game of Thrones and the White Walkers are a great metaphor for that rather than for climate change. I make a mistake and say that Great Gatsby explicitly refers to The Rising Tide of Color Against White World-Supremacy by Lothrop Stoddard. It actually uses a thinly veiled analogue of another book with the same thesis, The Passing of a Great Race by Madison Grant. It doesn't fundamentally affect the overall narrative in any way however.
