I like how rap music is deeply pissing off conservatives again. For a few years their complaints were just low-energy generic racism and half-remembered stereotypes from the 90s, but between WAP and Little Nas X, they’re going out of their fucking minds again.

Like when WAP got to Ben Shapiro so much that he revealed that he can’t sexually pleasure his wife- awesome shit.

Was it that time he publicly proclaimed a pussy getting wet is a medical condition ? 'cause that was pretty funny indeed.

This is for real something that would cause a global recession. That little hiccough in trade for a couple weeks as ships reroute could easily cause a recession on its own, never mind the current pandemic and current crisis in corporate debt (in the US).

Kinda feels like everything is touchpaper right now and some guy made of matches just walked in.

Most of us are people who don’t have healthy social lives. Please can we get along and not fly into shitfits. Look I don’t know how to talk to people, I haven’t had that ability since I was ritualistically harassed by my peers at a festival while tripping. Let’s just make this thing work. An imperfect union.

Of course this can go wrong very quickly with the paradox of tolerance / bad faith assholes, but generally I agree with you and appreciate your sentiment since this is so important.

On the topic, what’s everyone’s read on the recently resurfaced Richard Stallman drama over the past week? I don’t want to make excuses for bad people, but I don’t think RMS is a bad person and has been misrepresented to an insane extent by the wokie radlib brigade. Now we have companies like Red Hat and Mozilla latching onto these opportunities and it makes me very sad for free software in general. They’re painting him as a transphobe to amplify the cancelling attempt and from what I can tell he isn’t one.

Thoughts?

I don’t honestly know who that is, what’s the background?

Official Title of this Community: Ethnic Minorities and People of Color

Why is the title different?

We like to have fun here.

What is this place? A safe space for underrepresented peoples and peoples of color to talk, chill, and vibe.

What are the basic rules of the community?

  1. Follow Lemmy TOS and Community Guidelines. Non negotiable. This is the bedrock and mods will make decisions with this always in mind.

  2. This community is for ethnic minorities and people of color. This is a safe space where such people can freely discuss their struggles, insight, and thoughts without fear. If you are not, we respectfully ask you do not post or comment here. A future community will be established to allow for racial discussions with a mixed userbase. However, remember, comments here must still respect Lemmy TOS and Community Guidelines.

  3. Irony Racism is still racism. Racism is bad m’kay? We will treat irony racism and bad faith racist satire as racism. Will wield the ban hammer accordingly.

  4. No sectarianism: This is an identity channel not a channel for you all to complain about why XYZ isn’t the “one true leftism”. Take that to another place.

  5. Stupidpol is not allowed. Stupidpol is class reductionist. We are an identity community. Thinking like stupidpol ignores the struggles of the oppressed, their voices, and their need for unique support. Nothing says oppression more than someone saying that the identity you have is “not real” and that if you only thought like them you’d see what your “real” identity is. Mods reserve the right to ban users and content who promote stupidpol, stupidpol memes, and other class reductionist thinking.

FAQ

I don’t look XYZ and/or sometimes I can pass as white so I don’t know if I can post here. Can I?

  • This place is for ethnic minorities and people of color. This includes those of mixed heritage and those who may be “white” but are of an ethnicity that is a minority in their area (i.e. Kurds, etc) If you’ve experienced oppression due to your identity that is not based on sexual / gender identification, you are welcome here.

  • Moreover, for our American audience, we have people from around the world who are “white” but are oppressed due to being a minority in their country. They are and should be welcomed here.

What can I post?

  • Anything you think is relevant to the mission of this community. Things will evolve over time.
  • Topics and things relevant to EM and POC.

  • [News]: Vids/podcasts/websites that talk about current events relevant to EM and POC
