I'm a student at Oxford University. I literally have walked around this term and around 10 people have asked me whether I'm having coconut and Oreo problems. Can someone please explain what the hell they're talking about. I've also heard some students are calling me an Oreo behind my back.
Is it because I'm half black?
Xavier Torres
lmao do you have coconut and oreo problems or something?
Joshua Sullivan
Actually on a more serious note it sounds like a "brown on the outside, white on the inside" kind of meme. I've heard the same thing for "bounty" in my country
Christian Harris
Coconuts and oreos are dark on the outside but white on the inside.
They are talking about passing yourself as white and not being "really" black, whatever that means. You can ignore them.
Also, this has nothing to do with science or mathematics.
Xavier Bailey
So are you suggesting that they want me to act ghetto or something? I would imagine everyone at Oxford would be expected to act like Oxford students and I wouldn't be expected to act differently just because I'm half black.
Henry Cox
jeez now you wonder why america is the best place to live. sure, there are racists everywhere, but damn this is just sad...not being able to feel comfortable at your own university...
Jacob Thomas
Do not feed.
William Adams
Resist post modernist identity politics mate, its the path to the death camps for all of us.
Listen to some Jordan Peterson
good luck
Adrian Walker
Your fellow students are ostracizing you for not acting like a nigger, being white is a sin in the post modern collegic organizations, and it has more to do with how you act versus how you look.
Jonathan Peterson
>I would imagine everyone at Oxford would be expected to act like Oxford students
They're students at Oxford, hence they are indeed acting like Oxford students. If they're being stupid idiots to you then that's how Oxford students act, idiotically. I've lived in LA my entire life and I've known a few black dudes who were smart but a little ghetto, just a little, and every time some sheltered white leftist met them, I saw it happen on internet forums a lot where people discussed their personal lives, the leftists hated them. I've concluded that leftists have a caricature of blacks in their head which is wholly divorced from reality.
Hudson Scott
you have to show them youre serious, wear military clothes and cool sunglasses, then be like WHUT MUTHAFUCKA I GIVE YOU COCONUT AND OREO PROBLEM BOY
Brayden Evans
pumped up kicks
Isaiah Ortiz
It sounds like they're saying you're articulate, diligent, dress appropriately for an academic setting and are an all around respectable person. Good job!
Parker Bailey

Justin Cooper
>dem dere leftists triggered you don't talk like a retard This isn't what's going on at all. It's a bunch of ignorant white kids who associate "normal" behavior with whiteness.
Liam Clark
I've never heard of a white person questioning a black person's blackness. Only black people care about degree of blackness.
Tyler Edwards
Who's asking this? posh english white boys?
Yankee race hysteria is everywhere now fucksake.
Matthew Scott
Not true at all. I hear white kids all the time describe a black guy: "he's black but doesn't act black."
It's fucked up.
Leo Evans
>being white >acting civilized means being white
Nolan Cooper
>ypepo fuck off retard
Eli Rogers
It's fucked up.
Do they say this because of all the crime, rapes, murders, low IQ, rap culture, hate speech and generally in appropriate behaviour displayed by 99% of the race?
Nah, they just racist as shit!
Colton Harris
>being civilized means acting like cleetus as much as it means acting like reviewbrah wanna know how I know you're racist?
Thomas Ward
You could sue the university majorly for this. "Racism at Oxford", juiciest Guardian scoop ever
Tyler Sullivan
>99%
Connor Ortiz
They have realised that you got there through some meme race quota, and belong there like an Oreo to a coconut.
Brayden Kelly
That guy really is retarded but I can see how you would think 99% is the same as 99.99%
Jaxon Edwards
Funny negros that act like white dummies are seen as NORMAL to black people but negros that act like white middle class are uncle toms or oreos weird isnt it, its almost like unccivilized stupid behavior is loved by blacks or something.
Liam Reed
Personally I have never experienced being called an Oreo in highschool, college or the couple years I spent teaching city schools before doing system engineering. At absolute best I've been asked if I was in the military and that was by students I taught.
So I'm interested in who you are encountering to get that kind of response.
Asher Miller
Take it as a complement. They mean you are acting like a white person, which is a good thing. If they actually meant it as an insult, laugh at them an bask in your superiority.
Jason Cooper
back to /pol/ op.
Joseph Price
>DAS JUS WHYPEEPO BEIN RAYCIS
Carson Wilson
Only american blacks do this stupid shit, african and west indian negros dont assign race to behavior period. If an african guy acts decently they dont really think anything about it.
Anthony Brown
Tell em fuck off lad
James Jones
Nice bait. Also other people here must be really dense as fuck to think people saying you act white as a compliment is a good thing. It's back handed as fuck compliment if you actually bother to think it through
Jaxon Long
yes it does it relates to an I V Y V Y
L E A G U E E A G U E
u n i v e r s i t y
Liam Evans
I'd mention something but the first comment covered it well enough
Jaxson Turner
Oxford is not an Ivy League university, dipshit.
Michael Russell
Not even OP but I assure you it fucking happens, a lot. Tons of white people have accused me of acting "white". Sometimes as a horribly misguided attempt at a compliment, but often just as an insult. There's also people who will accuse you of trying to be white or something, as if I'm only pretending. I never grew up in the hood or the ghetto, fuck me right? Also what does this thread have to do with science or math?
Carson Carter
You're aggressively retarded.
Daniel Miller
>Is it because I'm half black? It's because its 2018 and you still don't know how to use google.
