A curse is a condition that bestows a disadvantage. Being black is not a curse in and of itself, but being black + being in any one of many places around the world today is definitely a curse-esque combination due to racism.
I roll with disadvantage every time I try to avoid people being offended on my behalf for comments I make about myself. Such is my curse as a sarcastic biracial man in modern America.
Once again, you’re the only one that seems to be having an issue getting what I said. Seems more a you problem.
Just take the L and move on dude. It’s really not that big of a deal. It’s ok to make mistakes. I don’t really care that you tried checking me on language I used to describe myself, like I said it happens all the time, but this constant badgering is kinda sad. I’d already completely forgotten this entire interaction happened by the time I opened every single one of your responses. It’s not that serious.
Awesome! According to me, the person I was talking about, “being cursed with a hint melanin” is an obvious in-joke to other black or mixed people. I’ll keep describing myself however I like, and you do the same!
That euphemism is a lot worse than just saying “black”.
According to…?
me. That’s my opinion. Being black is not a curse.

Maybe you weren’t sarcastic? Stop being so judgemental.
I’m not being judgemental. I literally told you to continue using and disliking words as you saw fit. You’re the only one that seems upset.
You’re not as good at sarcasm as you think. That’s irony by the way.

I prefer “of coloredness”
