That's not too different than what you ( @Dᴏᴏғᴜs Dᴏʀᴋᴍᴀɴᴇ ) are advocating for. When you put people as other groups that's when really weird stuff can happen.

The black community has a shit load of issues that stem from the "Good intentions" of guilty white people.

Please white people just leave black people alone 2020.
The complete coddling is nothing but detrimental

It's just the racism of low expectations

It's rude. It's annoying.

If you want to see something funny I highly recommend just going up to some upper middle class white Karen who is going on about how much black people or whoever need help. Look her in the eye and tell her "Black people don't need you. I don't need you. You are doing more harm than good"

It gets them everytime

Really?

Do Native Americans cycle through acceptable terms like black people @RedShocktrooper

I suppose that's true.

I don't really care about those things tbh.

I'll respond to just about everything other than *person of color*

I just cannot fucking deal with that.

Oh my god

Don't get me started on that.

I moved to New England a while ago and I'm so confused why people think it's okay to call me that

I just look at them and I'm "Did you just call me colored"

It's wild

And weird

I don't know how that became acceptable. Or Why.
It's basically telling everyone else they have to define themselves against the fact they aren't white.
Like being white is the base standard.

Blows me that the people who came up with it think it isn't racist.

I just can't ground my exsistence in the fact that I'm not white.
I'd rather just be called the N-word. Gives me more of an identity than freaking POC

I just don't care.

I am black. I'm not going to cry about it

Kindaaaaaaaaa

I was born in the UK. But my father is Welsh but my mother is American.

I moved a lot as a kid but I feel American

This is the place I've lived most consistently

And I like it here better than the UK

I just can't be president.

@ComradeChaos Yay for "Representation"

Ohhh snap my mum's family was from Flordia but she lived in Atlanta. I went to Georgia Tech for college many moons ago.

I miss food in Georgia. It was bad for you, but sooooooo damn good

Wow Sucks to be you. Southern food was an experience lol

@ComradeChaos You have no idea how many time I have to tell people they will not call me colored up here.

It's weird

@RedShocktrooper You definitely should. I can give you a roadtrip map so you can sightsee and eat your way through all the best places.

I miss the SE but I actually think I want to settle down in Washington State or Oregon. It's nuts how beautiful it is out there.

I went on a 4th of July trip to Anacortes WA a few year ago and almost never came back

lol

Oh god.

Not Portland.

I'm 10000% done with cities.

I used to live in LA. Cities never again. Not even once.

What about Bend?

It looks nice

Yikes about the Wuhan lab stuff

The blood thing is confusing

Same

Woooow. I can't believe people are actually using the word snitches in "proper" politics.
This is gonna age badly.

The lack of self awareness is staggering

@Machinimal Would you not consider a pandemic a good circumstance? It's not like they were being irresponsible again like in 2008.

Man that was interesting

I'm fucking simpleton about economics though. I don't get much of it

Gotta read up
