The argument that “Lucas is a white American therefore no other white American can have a different opinion on this” is pretty strange.

That isn’t what he said at all. Did you read his post?

Most of the people claiming it is offensive are from the same pool of White Americans as GL. Not really the group that should be leveling such a charge as that is the very group that has perpetuated these stereotypes.

So which part didn’t I understand?

Just because I’m of the same group (“white Americans”) that perpetuated the stereotype, I can’t recognize when the stereotype is applied?

What am I misunderstanding?
