Iam "Looks like we were wrong about the zodiac killer thing and the inferring meaning thing... Hmm..."

Hym "Ah! Shit! Stop DOING that! But I prefer the term 'correct adjacent.' We were close... So very close..."

Iam "The infer meaning thing was the opposite of what we said"

Hym "👌 Correct adjacent 👌 "

Iam ".....Whatever I'm going back to sleep..."

Hym "Announce yourself visually before you chime in again. I'm tired to you just popping up out of nowhere!"

White Adjacent

A term originating in the Black community as a response to the popularization of the term "person of color" (POC).

Refers to any person that is at least part Asian, Native American, Latinx, or another demographic that is simultaneously non-Black and non-white. The only people who are not white adjacent are white people and Black people. The point of the term is to separate Black people, who are people of color (POC), from ethnicities and races that are not technically white but still fully benefit from white privilege.

Remember, there is no such thing as a light skinned person of color.
You can't be racist to Asian people because they're white adjacent. "Stop Asian Hate" was about racial prejudice against Asian communities, not racism. It's the same reason you can't be racist to white people or white passing people like Andrew Yang and AOC.
