To a “Token White Friend.”

A Token White Friend . . . but not MY.

And they said, regarding how Black people and I suppose people in general are supposed to regard ex- or recovering-racists:

not all people need to be cancelled cuz they did/said dumb/problematic/bigoted shit as a kid.

Werd. And some virtue-signaling. Not to mention respectability politics and tone-policing. . . .

My response is to that bit above, more than to the rest of their uninformed, rose-colored pixel-diarrhea. Let’s have that once more, for posterity:

not all people need to be cancelled cuz they did/said dumb/problematic/bigoted shit as a kid.

Oh. . . .

Oh-oh-OHHHHH.

And here’re the GPS coordinates, so you don’t get lost.

Really, now, this is just a humble clapback to a Token White Rando (not a friend of mine) on Tumblr who swerved out of their Token White Lane with such Token White Force and Momentum, that I, as a More Than Token Black, felt duty-bound to do this clap-back and straighten-out that Token White Trajectory.
