    Should be self-explanatory, but looking for something that is true that our society denies is true through taboos or other means of determining what is socially acceptable to say.
    Are you shy to share the truth?
    Now you are welcome to tell anything you want.
    Do not imagine all the social limits you do not have.

    I'm pretty blunt, so I'm drawing a blank. Maybe you could start us off with your examples?

    I'm not even sure why that would be a stereotype, since everyone likes fried chicken.

    All national level politicians of any party are scum to one degree or another.

    The Left is filled with racists and bigots.

    There are never enough potato chips in the personal serving size bag one purchases while getting a Subway Sandwich combo meal.

    Not everyone likes fried chicken, vegetarians are one example.

    But, the gay agenda and the gay mafia and you can't criticize homosexuals in any way.

    Those things really do exist.

    I could explain it to you but I am not really in the mood.

    Basically it was a series of advertisements long ago that stuck. Same thing with watermelon.

    "White Privilege" and "White Fragility" are both real and affective within American society.

    Native Americans were very anti-environmental.

    They slaughtered buffalo by the thousands by running them off of cliffs.

    I've heard of white privilege of course, but what's white fragility?

    Yep, that was a huge part of it but it dates to even earlier than that. That movie was a huge deal back in the day though and helped to cement many racial stereotypes.

    I think it means that when you use a baseball bat to bash a White in the head because he or she has committed the crime of being White, that EVIL PERSON instantly drops to the ground and is no longer a problem. White Fragility, see?

    No, that's a confession not a statement along the lines of " . . . something that is true that our society denies is true through taboos or other means . . . " To make it a statement in adherence to the dictates of the OP it would have to be reworded along the following line, "White people are to blame for all the world's problems."

    Blacks pretty much pull the party line Democrat lever at the voting booth with very few exceptions.
    People of all races tend to kill each other more than they kill those of other races.
    The 2nd amendment is written in plain English and quite easy to understand. So easy in fact tthat anyone who thinks it allows for any form of gun control is demonstrably an idiot who should be not be listened to on any issue and should probably be beaten with a hose because this is why we can't have nice things.
    There is no such thing as a body high vs a head high when it comes to weed. You're stoned or not. Generally strains are bull(*)(*)(*)(*) too unless you're talking cbd plants instead of thc.

    White fragility is that whites have both a superiority and an inferiority complex mixed in all at once.

    Whites are fearful and xenophobic in nature, regardless of what their beliefs and opinions are, and are threatened by anything that is different than them.


    In short, they get really afraid when blacks say nasty things about them and try to get them to shut up or punish them whenever they can.

    That's the inferiority complex, but one example. Whenever there is anyone who is different than them, they are fearful of them and demonize them out of fear, mistrust and ignorance, and the expecation and demands of people being just like them.

    Another great example of this is how Christians demonize atheists to no, such as their mantra of Stalin was an atheist so all atheists are evil just like him.

    The superiority complex comes in because far too many whites believe that people have to be like them. if you share a difference of opinion than them, then more than likely they will start insulting you because it is a difference of opinion, and don't want to discuss things in a fair, open and honest answer.

    Another way this superiority complex shows goes like this :See the Statue Of liberty? What other cultures could create such a magnificent piece of work? We're superior, so you should be like us."

    in short, really, these are forms of bigotry that stems from fear of the unknown and ignorance. They aren't the only ways, of course.

    Those that decry the actions of others are often hypocrites.

    What constitutes true in many cases is subjective as the truth is that green is my favorite color does not make it true for all humanity. Socially acceptable is also subjective because what is socially acceptable to one will be anything but for another. The truth is to me that to judge a person solely upon the superficial is an immoral act... yet many in our society do just that and argue those they judge are the immoral ones, like braless women and long haired men.
