The "sort by controversial" button is a godsend

I used it on this post and the top comment was >!’Ngl im down for segregation 2, wait to see their faces when they realize MLK died for nothing’!<

Bruh

Mmm, this scone is well edited.

🍞🧐 hmmm yes my compliments to the chef

Indeed love a good scone

Jam then cream or cream then jam (the only acceptable way)

I felt like im jetstream sam while watching this lmao

How?

Clapping in pure utter choas. Ya know. One of his meme gifs?

Oh, how did I not think of that

He defeated you on your own thing.

It’s even in the video lmao

Chopping people into bits with red katana and sick theme song

Fuck the politics but that sub in general is the definition of bitch and moaning

That the point of the subreddit

Kinda like what OP is low key doing in this post? Someone somewhere else said “white boy” and now the cockles are up??

Ok.

"I was walking home at night and I saw a black man with a hoodie and I just noped out of there. Not tonight" 😂

Maybe im a bit weird, but how is that racist exactly? A black man can blend a lot easier into the dark then a white man. Guy can take out a gun go "pop pop" then disappear real quick.

I don't think something is necessarily sexist, racist, or any other bigotry if its on justified grounds.

Context matters. You could be walking home alone at night, maybe a bad neighborhood, and you saw someone who just happened to be black guy. Understandable to walk away from a potentially dangerous situation.

Mass shootings have overwhelmingly represented men, many of which happen to be white.

Can't vet a stranger, minds well stop thinking of people's feelings and think about your safety. Don't really give a shit as long as someone doesn't yell a slur before avoiding them.

but he specified the skin color if you see a black guy and don't want to keep walking in that direction then that's fine no one cares but if you see a black guy and don't want to walk in that direction specifically and only because he's black that's racist

I'm racist depending on the time of the day then.

Black guy in the morning? Dont avoid, Guy will stick out like a sore thumb if he tries something.

White guy in the morning? Avoid if i can depending on what he's wearing. Dark clothes? Don't avoid. Bright clothes? Avoid.

Black guy at night? If he's all dark, like a lot of black folk in my city at night, avoid because i neither can see them (makes me feel unsafe) or avoid hitting them if im on a bike.

White guy? If he's all dark clothing avoid. Don't want to mistake him for light bouncing on a wall and either bump into him, or get jumped.

Context of the situation also matters. avoiding black people in a crowd? Hella racist. If anyone tries something they'll probably be caught so now its about their colour, rather than what it can cause.

Alone walking at night? Can't see shit or them barely cuz they darker than the night? Avoid.

In which patch did they make black people invisible in the dark

Patch 1.14.17.

The devs are stupid and refuse to nerf the "black class".

Fortunately, the biggest guild, has a party of PKers called "Cops" they are leveled up and geared, they use that gear hunt the black players. So if a black party tries to steal your loot or raid your base, you can call them.

Lmao I read this as tierzoo

It gets dark where i am. Also i have eyesight problems in addition to the odd phenomenon of black people where i live wearing black clothes at night, moving slow and generally looking like brown blobs if you're in a dimlit area.

So not invisible, but harder to spot unless in a group.

Makes sense when i see a transgender walking to the bathroom i turn around too yenno cause the news of them raping kids in there amirite

You're free to do whatever makes you feel safe as long as you don't intentionally harm someone or make a scene. Although trans people are 4x more likely to experience violence than cisgender people and 50% less likely to commit sexual offenses.

I avoid people based on characteristics that could aid them in abusing me. Manipulative people, cops, people in higher positions in society, politicians.

If I am alone with another black person at night and its hard to see them, contrary to a white person on the other side being easy to spot and very noticeable, I'll switch to another street temporarily.

Their race isn't the problem, it's just that they can blend easier so if they decided to attack me, it would be harder for me to defend myself.

If anything, being transgender is likely a disadvantage when it comes to committing a crime.

Vampiric racism

that first paragraph is the funniest shit I’ve ever read

Bruh the statistic part is because most people are white. I say this as a Mexican, but I think the majority by population have been committed by Mexicans (IE you are more likely to commit a mass shooting if you are mexican). I'm not going to commit a mass shooting, just saying.

Would YOU like to be avoided and feared based on the color of your skin?

I fucking wish people would avoid me. Also, that's not what im talking about.

Not a black guy minding his damn business while walking down the street, but an actual suspicious situation.

Like being in a bad neighborhood? Fuck yeah, im black and to hell with people's feelings. Aint everybody a damn pedophile, but if i had a kid, I'd sure be cautious like they were.

White guy being mad in a store after a string of shootings that started similarly? Yes.

Treat every dog like it can bite. If a certain demographic has a higher tendency to something, investigate, find the cause, and protect yourself to a reasonable degree if the statistics aren't a lie.

Why people gotta be assholes? Don't gotta show your fears openly. I was a kid, real young, when i first experienced racism. Some white school that was nice.

People need to learn to not act on their fear and instead avoid. Getting hurt for being black wasn't fun, being avoided isn't either.

Know folks. Understand context. People aren't statistics, but be aware of the situations where such a stereotype can arise and avoid them.

Investigate. Do research. Don't let paranoia overtake you.

Why does this group do something?

What situations occur that either allow or instigate them to do this thing?

Are you these statistics a lie created to put vurden or prejudice against these groups?

If these statistics are true, what measures can i take to protect myself to a reasonable degree that does not put stress on the other person from my actions?

And finally: how often and what circumstances lead to these types of situations?

Boom. Personal life policy created.

Sorry but being white and with a sad face doesn't mean that I am gonna shoot up a store. That's idiotic, and that's my point. To generalize and say that all white people commit mass shootings, and then fuck off a store because I see one. It's as racist as saying that I exited a gas station because I saw a black man angry. That's the level of retardation we are talking about.

Well, guess we're talking about two different things then.

I'd leave a store or gas station if i saw someone getting mad because I don't like confrontation, especially confrontation that can lead to a more dangerous situation.

If a guy is showing all the signs, not just being white and sad, of people before him that led to them commiting a shooting? Noping out.

Apologies if i made it seem a bit too assuming of things. Hard to fit my entire thought process without creating a wall of text.

I mean, I see where you are coming from, but still. The problem is that he brought up race to the tweet. Its not the same to say "I saw an angry man at a store so I noped out" than to say "I saw an angry black man at a store so I noped out". The problem is making it a racial issue, as if being black or white is important.

I mean i see what you mean and i don't really support a tweet like that mainly because it seems to put white men in a bad spotlight without getting into the meat of why this is happening.

I feel like what the person who tweeted it is making the wrong thing into a racial issue. Just simply an angry white man, is just a guy who happens to fit the description being a dick in the store.

I do feel like the mass shootings itself is a racial issue or at least gendered issue although I can't speak on it in a meaningful way so take my words with a grain of salt.

I see we agree then. The problem is not so much noping out of the store (though talk about overreacting). The problem is making it a racial thing.

I agree as well with you that mass shootings are a white male problem, and why I think this is the case is because I think they feel almost left out of society and almost resented by it. Like, if you think about it, there is not a group of people more loathed in media and culture than the legendary "straight white male". This, I think, creates a lot of resentment and a feeling of injustice (deserved or not) in a lot of white men and some of them maybe psychopathic enough to do some serious damage. Like this tweet is the perfect example, if you replaced white man with black man, he would have been canceled and ousted out of society, but because he made fun of a straight white male, it's okay and funny. Nobody can expect that this isn't gonna create resentment in some men (that we are already seeing in the form of extremist groups). This is my opinion anyways, and I'd love to hear what you have to say

I am open to conversating about this. But why specifically a white male problem? while yes, straight white men often get made fun of in situations that don't warrant it, they aren't as marginalized or rejected in the open world.

(loneliness, bullying, abuse, mental illness) seems a bit strange to only apply to white men, when other groups face these at a much higher rate without killing a a great amount of people.

A white man may feel resentment when faced with comments such as these, but a lesbian or woman would also feels this type of resentment at the common sexist comments or gay rights debate. Yet they aren't represented enough in mash shootings

It also seems these mass shooters have some things in comment. Online radicalization, misogynistic, domestic violence, violence against/hatred of women.

Particularly misogynic and white supremacy being the connective tissue amongst these men, along with traditional, stoic masculinity being a potential barrier to seeking help.

I think you might find these are interesting reads.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2017/10/10/men-special-risk-guns-they-love/734961001/

No doubt that minorities get attacked all the time, but when they are, they are rightfully defended by the media and institutions. But when a straight white male gets attacked, specially if the attack comes from a minority, then people look the other way or even cheer on for the agresor. Like in this case, where redditors where saying all sort of insults to the person that complained about that racist tweet. This is the double standard I'm talking about, and it's really dangerous, because it plays no small part in the radicalization that you mention.

that’s the problem: you are one of the few smart people on the internet. most people dont look for context bc they see everything at face value, nothing more nothing less.

And…?

That's racist AF to discriminate like that based on race

That is a false scenario tho,noway you would be able to spot a BLACK guy at night🤓They blend in very well.

Yes, those are facts. But being able to point out racism is nothing more than a cool trick in a country founded on colonialism.

So you are okay when a certain group of people is racist?

I live in America. I have to be.

So you are racist. Why exactly?

Ok. Just yesterday I had to shoot photos of a marathon in town and in the rewards paddock, in front of around 500 volunteers and media personnel, the photogs got thanked for their work. Except me. The lady walked right by me and when I extended my hand to get a shake, she recoiled as if it was made of plutonium. And no one batted an eye. Why? Because it is what is is. What do you think I’ve should have done; grabbed the woman’s hand and “assault” her?

And that’s just ONE instance of my day yesterday which is just one day of the whole year and I’m in my 40s.

I’m racist because if i wasn’t, I’d be homicidal.

So because of your own personal experience (which isn't really that convincing since there could have been a lot of reasons why someone didn't shake your hands), you think that you are justified into being racist?

I could say that I am justified into being misogynistic because X or Y reason but that doesn't mean that I am right. And me saying that if I wasn't misogynistic, I'd be homicidal is a big Yikes

Damn. You’re right. My existence doesn’t matter because a real-life story wasn’t captivating enough for you and I surely don’t have the experience to tease out racism from anything else since I was just born in the 1970s.

You’ve changed my mind. Kudos to you. Hope this enlightens your day or whatever the fuck you’re trying to get outta telling me that bullshit in your reply

Hey man, I don't know how to type this more clearly. You can't base your worldview on personal anecdotes. Especially considering that you are biased to only remember the bad things that happened, and not the million other neutral or good things that did happen to you. I can't say that I hate black people and I am racist towards them because once some black person robbed me, and another time so black persone called me cracker. It's stupid to lump a whole race of people together because some of them treated me badly or didn't shake my hand. That's my point

I hear what your saying. You only know what you know.

But I know what I know.

But you can't know how a whole race. You are basing your racist worldview on the assumption that you know every white person and know how every single one if them behaves. Your assumption is wrong because the knowledge that you have is both limited and biased

Oh, I see. I don't assume that about every white person, nor every person that offends me in some way. And I can see how you're coming to that with the limited knowledge you have; you're making assumptions on me making assumptions. I get it.

But. And I hate that this is gonna come off sounding like I'm bragging about this but I've been trying to say that I've earned my "racism glasses" through years of experience. Years of having to question my reality against what I kept getting told it was. What you've been told it was. I can see what's happening when it happens and it's daily, but you are technically correct in that it's not everything.

Like bruv, I love that you're coming off anti-racist and all but just because we're on the same timeline doesn't mean we're experiencing the same realities.

I wasn't assuming everything, you straight up said that if you weren't racist, you'd be homicidal. I am not making any assumptions.

And please enlighten me, on what grounds do you justify your racism against white people. What has the white race done to you? And don't tell me your anecdotal evidence.

Without using my personal experience, the best way to answer your question is to refer you to Critical Race Theory.

Critical race theory is an academic concept that is more than 40 years old. The core idea is that race is a social construct, and that racism is not merely the product of individual bias or prejudice, but also something embedded in legal systems and policies.
The basic tenets of critical race theory, or CRT, emerged out of a framework for legal analysis in the late 1970s and early 1980s created by legal scholars Derrick Bell, KimberlĂŠ Crenshaw, and Richard Delgado, among others.
A good example is when, in the 1930s, government officials literally drew lines around areas deemed poor financial risks, often explicitly due to the racial composition of inhabitants. Banks subsequently refused to offer mortgages to Black people in those areas.

Holy shit, this is so fucking well-edited. Thanks op, this made my day.

"That's racist I'm leaving" "No you can't do that that's racist" I expect nothing less from this shit hole site.

Oh em gee guys it’s just a joke please don’t call me out unless you agree uwu

mmmmMmm kay

This is why I fucking hate Reddit comments.

I mean the OP's point about worsening racial unity seemed to be immediately proven for him in that comment section

thats one great fucking edited post OP well done

I personally believe we should host a meet up for all the commenters on this post so we can watch them beat each other to death

i love making fun of white people (im white myself so the jokes are authentic and true)

JustUnsubbed kills brain cells

Wtf happened? I do not understand, that black guy seemed racist but idk the rest, and the reddit shitt all was too fast to read for me

Monkey think, monkey type, monkey not agree, monkey angry, monkey morals not change, monkey gained nothing in the end.

We don't call them monkeys anymore

oh my god ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

💀💀💀 lmfao broooo

eh it was just meant to show the chaos going down in the comments. Basically, no actual good points, and a 50/50 split between "yeah that was kinda racist" vs "I'm white and I thought it was hilarious"

How is the black guy racist?

If he had let out that white boy in his sentence it would have been ok but this way it seems or was because the boy was white, if a white person would say the same about a black person it would be racist too

Pretty sure it's a reference to the Buffalo massacre, so it makes sense he specified race

Havent heard of it

Living under a rock then, eh? Context matters

Living in europe not wanting my day ruined by some shit happening in the us

then don't chime in on a US-based racial discussion

Not everyone lives in murica you know

Dude

duuuuuude

shitttttt

In both cases, it would be completely okay & very funny.

"Just saw a black guy. Ran away, don't want to get shot."

Whether you think that's funny or not, you would get banned

"Just saw a black guy at 7/11 wearing a jacket so I left"

the funny part is the guy behind the twitter account is white

Holy shit.

I sometime remember why i was soo afraid of making a reddit account

God forbid ppl have opinions

"Broadly speaking, the racial distribution of mass shootings mirrors the racial distribution of the U.S. population as a whole. While a superficial comparison of the statistics seems to suggest African American shooters are over-represented and Latino shooters underrepresented, the fact that the shooter’s race is unclear in around 10 percent of cases, along with the different time frames over which these statistics are calculated, means no such conclusions should be drawn. Conversely, looking at the mass shootings in the United States by gender clearly demonstrates that the majority of mass shootings are carried out by men."

Well edited Take your upvote

I’m not calling it racist because I love me some good stereotypes but how do people still find it funny. White school shooter joke has been played out for a decade now. It’s like if people joked about the twin towers like it’s not offense it’s just so old edgy and played out how the fuck do you find it funny

I don't see color when I look at people. That's the god honest truth.

I got banned from commenting in blacktwitter because of some shit like white opinion a couple years ago... Bitch, I'm black.

Let me give you the definition of racism so that it may lay here, baran and nude with its breasts bare,

'prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism by an individual, community, or institution against a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized'

The person in the tweet indeed was racist by the most diluted definition of the word, op or whomever posted that on r/unsubbed was not racist, he stated a fact. Now let google find this comment, let this pathetic word have its definition wide spread so that it may be used properly.

The tweet was made after the Buffalo Mass Shooting. You can't just look at shit from a colourblind perspective as if there aren't racial tensions or a high amount of acts of white nationalist terrorism every year.

Context matters.

I don't see a reason for hating random white people for something that couple of extremists did but I guess that's too American for me to understand.

Gandhi once said, "eye for an eye makes the world blind" and it's very accurate nowdays

Same with that sub’s counterpart, now all I see nowadays on there is no humor and just someone saying shit like “Guys racism is bad” and getting thousands upon thousands of upvotes

I don’t know how people don’t get it. If you want to test if something is racist or sexist switch the gender or race and if only then it’s bad then it was racist before. It only doesn’t work with slurs.

This is indeed a ratio
