Yeahhhh I get the joke but I wish the meme didn't do it in a racist way. Why is the TCP baby white and the UDP baby not?

Please stop. It's not intentional. Stop basing your judgment on people and actions with an acute view of their skin color. Just see two sets of people. Thanks.

Please stop.

In a world where there is racism, acting like racist themes don't exist only helps prolong it.

One set of of people here was drawn white (and responsible with a child), the other was drawn black (and irresponsible). That's worth critiquing, intentional or not.

Acting racist doesn't mean you are literally Satan, it means you are acting racist. Not stopping after people point it out and acting defensive and in denial is worse than thoughtlessly doing something racist, being told off and then correcting
