Which state do you live in ? Are you Snooki if you live in New Jersey? Dive bars and serial killers if you're in the Midwest? What about fried chicken? If you're from Wisconsin are you just people who make cheese? Is your self-worth and sense of identity built around stereotypes?
Similarly, what if your parents are not from the United States? What if they are from Russia? Are they Communists? Or what if you are Middle Eastern? Do bombs really go "here?" Are people from Africa zoo animals or Aids? Think about how stereotypes affect other people before judging someone based upon the group assumption?
To some, these images are simply a joke, but to others they are hurtful. Think before you speak, write, or post.
