I don't think "it's just a meme" or "it's just stating the facts" will ever be a good defense against racist stereotyping, so I'm going to ignore that line of argument. Fair enough if it was made by a non-white person trying to poke fun at white people, that makes it better, but that context isn't obvious to me at all. I guess it's easier for Americans to infer, which brings us full circle
I said I'm not talking about racism against white people. I think it's racist because the joke appears to be that white people have disposable income and like to travel and do adventurous things. So, to me, it's saying non-white people don't have money and don't travel or do fun things. And I think that's bad. I don't feel like I'm doing backflips to get to this conclusion, I genuinely don't understand how it's not seen this way by everybody else.
Oh, I know why they're obsessed with race. What I don't understand is why this meme can get upvoted and not discarded as racist. And I'm not crying about "wah racism against whites" I mean real racism.
There's plenty of examples of trademark names being used generically. Coke, hoover, Jacuzzi
