I use default tbh, I felt weird using other ones. I enjoy being blinded by the white....

@seesaw thanks a lot for the info

No I don’t think I’m famous on this little place, just doing this because a couple fellows have asked and I believe in democracy truthfully

Yes indeed ask me whatever if you wishy 😿😿

@Yanderemenhera hey wait no don’t do that

@Yanderemenhera if this person is under 14, how have they been here since 2024? 🤔

@Evil-Overlord me mayhaps though I think most things are said pretty explicitly 🐺

@TheToast Maybe you should put that in your bio? People can't really contact you unless they click your profile, so they'd probably see that better than this post, which will inevitably be buried under other things.
(Unless of course this is targeted to a particular person, in which I apologize for intruding)

@Jujub_811
People have things against many people, this isn’t just race. People have always wanted to find outsiders.
If everyone is inside a circle, there will be a new outside if you see what I mean. If everyone is rich, nobody is.
To have hate in common, and people to sneer at is something humans have been doing for a long while. It makes the haters have something in common with all the other haters, makes them feel included in a group that is “better than the rest” (like supremacy)

When people enslaved people, it was helpful for them to find a reason to make these people less human. Less money paid, less guilt for treating these slaves wrong. It’s a mix of the human selfishness and instinctual wish for survival that contributed to having slaves and removing guilt for how morally wrong it is.

Like during WWII. Jews aren’t a race, but an ethnicity. They are different based on this grouping they were put into by words and a few different features. This surely wasn’t the main reason for the hate and crimes done against them. It was only because of the words that grouped them, and the different lifestyle. And it was because people have hate in their hearts.

When people aren’t doing well in life, there will be an almost desperate attempt to find perpetrators, find the cause of WHY they aren’t as happy or rich as they’d wish.
To accept the numerous reasons that aren’t black and white, and to accept one’s own impotence, is a blow to anyone’s self worth, the treasured ego.

Once you are looking for perpetrators, you have rewired your way of thinking. Viewing bad, looking only for malicious intent. The man responsible for the movement of hatred of Jews (and other groups) was really just creating a target for hate to be released, when before it was hate and anger radiating out of the people with no particular aim.

People always hate, but hate to admit they don’t always have reason, or that the reason is really just the unrestrained nature of people in power when morals are forgotten. So many little things can build to bigger. Little cultural differences, little physical differences.

People are [censored], people are ableist, people are sexist. There are always going to be groups that are hated, always have been.
I repeat that this form of hatred is NOT limited to racism. It’s all tied together, all from the same roots.

The only reason one might try to call it “skin tone” would be because they were raised with prejudiced people all around them, so that this color is tied in with the personality that they were told is bad. The skin and features are only a way to group people. It is not only the skin.

Why are people with a particular eye color never oppressed or hated for these attributes? Because that isn’t a particular group of people with a name smacked on them. As soon as people are labeled, they will be attacked based on this label, because labels are the beginning of objectification.

Perhaps I ought to be more optimistic though, maybe there will be a fix to these problems at some point in time.
Too bad I do believe this works like the Dunning-Kruger effect. Those uneducated to their own bias don’t know it exists, those who have blind spots can’t see what they are blind to.

All I have said is based on my own perspective, how I think of the issue. I believe racism is linked to psychology and not just events. Choices made by humans sprout from the mind so that is where I look.

@questionoftheday Because homeless people aren't always documented number 1, and prisoners are put in prison as punishment for a specific amount of time until they are judged, perhaps losing their life, perhaps not. To kill a prisoner would be a felony, because they are in the legal system's custody, and starving them would kill them. Homeless people are in nobody's custody so the system doesn't care.

2/10 because of the direction everything is turning, particularly politically. Besides that, bad home-life year as well- all in all, I'd rather skip it entirely.

Beautiful car art. It motivated me to eat 50 donuts and smile gleefully. The fire victim made me spit them out.

What a smooth transition from comfort to love. This is something to learn from, children.

I'm going to be a short idiot in a black hoodie and a mask of a rat, and I'll walk around my house scaring the souls out of people.

how tall is everyone? me personally, i'm 5'3, and i am 100% going to stay that height.

who and what would it be?

@moonlitprxsm i ditched them both bc people suck there.....

I'm glad I avoid controversy. I agree that all the current mods seems competent and aries seems very nice, as do the other mods. No need to argue with people on an otherwise good forum. Go onto among us and argue with fellow trolls, and you will be out of energy by the time you get here.

@BritishUnity I adapted myself to my specific situation, and I did this after a good amount of thought, so indeed I think I made the best choice
