- he thinks being white is inspirational?
- he got trolled by his tattoo artist?

白 maybe he was going for something epic like “clear minded” and completely failed.

He’s probably Italian and just trying to make sure he’s counted as white after the inevitable sale of America to China in order to refinance Trump’s commercial real estate portfolio.

Did he maybe think the same people reading his tattoo couldn't see the color of his skin? (This would comport with my impression of white supremacists.)

4. He knows exactly what it says because he asked for it. He can bullshit people *and* do the easter egg.
5. He wanted a picture of a birthday cake and this is what he wound up with.

It's either C or its the name of some niche anime character with white color theme I'd say.

Unless his first name is either Walter or Betty, I’m guessing first and third.

He likes the image and didn’t think farther OR he’s a slightly more complicated white supremacist than average
