I'm not attacking him/her and I hope it wasn't interpreted that way but that is a ridiculous statement by any POC in the United States to make. See dcole2929's

See dcole2929's response regarding the incredulity of that statement. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10949198 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10949198
- dang 11y agoI'm sure you didn't mean to attack anyone, but on HN it's important to remain civil in comments, particularly when someone else's statement seems ridiculous.
- zanek 11y agoYeah, how dare my life contradict your perceptions of what my life should be like since I share the same skin color. I think are tons of people just like me. I hungout with a diverse group in high school and college. Just where do you think this open racism had to happen at. It's certainly not happening at most companies or schools these days. That covers most of people's lives. Also I think you and Dcole our out there if you think EVERY person of color has to had been openly discriminated against. You're projecting your experience onto millions of people. How ridiculous is that. I know some people have openly racist experiences but it's hilarious that you think there is no other experience in the USA other than that
- zanek 11y agoAlso, your statement is so completely idiotic I actually laughed out loud. What else in your narrow view does every POC have to have experienced ? Do I have to love rap music ? Do I have to have used the N word ? If you can't see how idiotic your statement is, I feel sorry for you
