While I agree that lots of these videos are terrible (like Shit Jewish Girls say), some are truly brilliant. Through these videos, I learned about the concept of "microaggressions" - which are the topic of this tumblr.
I think it is really powerful to think about the way we express power, privilege without meaning to - and ultimately, that's what the Shit White Girls Say to Black Girls and Shit Christians Say to Jews videos are about. These videos (the good ones...) really do help raise consciousness about the way we use language and the way ignorance can be oppressive.
With memes, you kindof have to accept there's going to be a mix of brilliant and idiotic content; I agree that Shit Jewish Girls say is idiotic, but I still like the meme itself.
