There's a woman in my city who's made wearing shoes indoors her whole identity (she even changed her Twitter username about it). Such a weird concept to me...

it's white resistance

like when they pretend that washing chicken under tap water is going to kill them. it's the principle of the thing

or maybe they immune systems really that bad idk

What is this about washing chicken under tap water? They think it'll make them sick or something?

You should not rinse chicken (or meat) in the sink, it's a) useless if you cook them properly (as in, not eat them raw), because that will kill the bacteria and b) potentially harmful because you'll splash around the bacteria on your sink/utensils etc where they will remain dangerous since they won't be cooked.

idk what the original commenter meant, maybe he missed a negation and wanted to say that white people rinse their meats when they dont have to? because that makes more sense to me

That makes sense. I have no idea why I didn't immediately register washing meat as weird other than im-vegan

fresh chicken doesn't need to be washed
99% of chicken bought at stores isn't fresh, and has a layer of slime on it
many people (mostly non-white) choose to wash chicken because of this
white people think they will get sick from the raw chicken sprayback (but not the sprayback of literally every other dirty thing they wash)
