  • I don’t inherit the sins of my father solely because of my skin color. Again, that is straight up racism. I don’t call anybody a slave just because their skin is dark. I just showed up here - I didn’t have any say in it, and to suggest that I absorb the wrongdoings of other people just because I have a similar skin color to them is fucked up

    I am willing to judge anybody on their actions and the content of their character, and I hope to GOD that I find some genuine people. It’s lonely out here, we don’t need any further division from you or anyone else.

    Stereotypically, white people who move to Japan are “nerds” in some sense. Nerds love Linux. Really nerdy Linux lovers always use a tiling WM.

    It’s only a matter of time until bro is wearing a trench coat with a cyberdeck strapped to his arm and pretending he’s in some Neotokyo fantasy. 😔

    (P.S. I am a Linux loving nerd)

    I said that I’m “a bit of an asshole”, alluding to the fact that we are not perfect and shouldn’t expect that from others.

    You’re kind of proving my point of black and white viewpoints, making a bunch of assumptions of my character based on very little information.

    It’s probably not even thought about due to chattel slavery not being a thing in Sweden. There was slavery in some of its colonies, but it was never a part of their mainland society.

    Couple that with the racial diversity of Sweden having fewer than 1% black people, there’s so little representation that any offense probably isn’t even being heard.

    Any creative expression is ultimately “art” - anyone can put out whatever they want, the responsibility is on the viewer to accept or reject it.

    For example, I really enjoy standup comedy and I’m of the mind that you can joke about anything. If you do not like the jokes a particular comedian does, you don’t have to buy tickets to the show. Simple as that.

    Aren’t you? I know I am.

    The internet is a very weird place as it seems to deal entirely in black and white, judging people by singular events rather than the entirety of their character. One wrong move and you’re cancelled.

    Dude is not a Saint, and he never claimed to be. He got famous for playing video games, not giving lectures on moral purity. Enjoy whatever content he puts out, think he’s cool, but do not put content creators on any higher a pedestal than that. At the end of the day, they’re a whole-ass human being just like you.
