Bernie Sanders puffy coat and mittens…white privilege?

Racism Score: 0.0

Racial progress can seem stagnant at times even though there has been exponential progress.  Do you know why? Look no further than this asinine take from Ingrid Seyer-Ochi regarding Bernie Sanders inauguration attire.

“This is white supremacy, this is white privilege. It can be hard to pinpoint, but when we see it, we know it.” – Ingrid Seyer-Ochi

Unfortunately for the Bay Area and America for that matter, Seyer-Ochi is teaching the youth to look for ridiculous ways to point out white privilege and/or white supremacy.  

Not clear and obvious examples, rather specious visual circumstances that are so absurd, no one with a logical brain can jump to a racist conclusion.

Instead of enjoying the Bernie Sanders meme that has taken social media by storm, Seyer-Ochi took the ‘woe is me/white guilt’ rout.

Whether you are pro-Bernie, anti-Bernie, indifferent-towards-Bernie, one cannot deny the humor in the memes. Unless you are Seyer-Ochi.

We are talking about a puffy coat and mittens…mittens. The notion that an old white man sitting in freezing or near freezing temperatures in a puffy coat and mittens exhibits white privilege is truly unbelievable.

Only in America a middle-aged white woman can come to this conclusion. Where is Bill Burr when you need him!
