      <![CDATA[Better yet: even if you can't actually find any ironic racism going on around these threads, it has been established in advance that if you deny it, it's because you are one. Tidy!

      <![CDATA[I don't know what a "dipster" is, or what any of this has to do with Portland specifically, or where you see that much irony+racism in most of what's printed here, but oh well... I'll admit there's a lot I don't know.

      <![CDATA[Mostly just that "ironic racist" describes about 88.6% of Merc writers and commenters (and Portland dipsters in general) and this seemed like as good place as any to drop the link. Nobody to whom it applies would agree with it, of course; that just goes without saying.

      <![CDATA[What makes you say this I,A has anything in common with the examples in the article you linked? A public forum where any idiot can rant, just 'cause it's on the Merc site, is in the same precise realm as Zooey Deschanel's Twitter feed or something? And why are acoustic covers of hip-hop songs racist? Black and white musicians have been doing versions of each other's music for eons, and nowadays there are covers of everything in pretty much every musical style.<br>
<br>
Lots of half-baked sloppy, even hypocritical opinions there from Lindy, though I agree completely with some of her examples (Lesley Arfin, Stuff White People Like).
