  I’ve been staring at it for a minute now but it’s still not clicking for me. I guess I’m not racist?

    It can be read as someone was very vehemently “protesting too much” in marking “no”. I’d just do a casual scribble, since I’m only a little bit racist

    There’s a couple parts to it. It’s black and white, there is no grey area or mixed results. The Yes is white.

  I know as many racists with dark skin as I do racists with light skin though.

    I know more light skin racists than dark skinned ones, so I cancel you out and then some.

    That’s how this, works, right?

    No, its inferring the person checking these boxes feels that “white is right”. Its not the family guy color chart.
