  • Racism is an outdated and foolish idea fueled by paranoia, ignorance and low-self-esteem. With each generation and each racist old coot that dies the world becomes a little less racist.

  • However, the Buzzfeed community misread the irony within the last few paragraphs; missing the clever social commentary “The Racist Tree” makes. Many of the posters were befuddled and posted the obvious, which was that the tree was still racist. But, thanks to the tireless efforts of one brilliant user (often mentioned as 'The Messiah'), he was able to give the gift of understanding to the whole community.  And so, even more social progress was made.

  • In real life, the kids would think the tree is funny. Then tell Sam to get over it and stop complaining and get his own tree.

  • Is the lesson here really “don't be racist because everyone will shun you”? Shouldn't the message be “don't be racist, all people are equal?”. Maybe I'm mis-reading something.

  • That is a pretty awesome bit of social commentary, although I'm always split on whether or not the N-word should be printed.

  • The children knew the racist tree was a phoney and was still racist, and only hiding its true feelings for personal gain. The children realized that you shouldn't not be racist just to avoid being ostracized, but because its the right thing to do. So the children chopped down the old racist tree and had a bonfire. Because sometimes old racist trees need to make way for new, non-racist trees. And so, social progress was made.

  • Did a Libertarian write this? This seems to be the whole idea of 'the free market will end prejudice', which is blatantly false. Education will end prejudice.
