The list seem to doesn't include skin cancer. Nor the annoying fact that racists just assume that they can confide their racist claptrap to other white people and we are expected to just listen politely, if not agree enthusiastically. And they get really aggro if we don't. I bet they don't try that on non-white people.
Maybe I should make a list? ;-)
