If there’s a debate, the answer is “probably, so let’s not say it around Leroy”

I got rid of twitter for that ****. People too easily assume and throw that label out so much that it has lost all meaning. Bitter angry losers. Or bots just riling people up.

this is not at all an attempt to make their stances arguments from authority, but its me and 3 software engineers that work at microsoft and amazon, so they are really swimming in this **** and are completely neutered at work bc if they even pose the opposite side of most questions of "is this racist" they are at serious risk of getting fired, a la James Damore.

Additionally, the current state of affairs in this country, afaik, is that it is completely acceptable to make statements that are obviously racist or sexist so long if its about white people. Once you accept that, which is a departure from logic, we get into these phenomenally bizarre situations bc now we have to omit logic in some situations but not others.

And i think we could quash 90% of this crap if we all just approached a discussion with some basic principles of human decency like, we are all human and entitled to the same rights (obv people agree but then see my last paragraph, the ****ing cognitive dissonance never fails to amaze me), have some common human decency and realize the important of free speech and dialectic discourse and absolute infallibility of potentially extreme negative outcomes from allowing the government to censor us. And finally, just grow some thicker ****ing skin and stop being so god damn sensitive ffs.

End rant.

here is tweet in discussion, bolded part was initial starting point:

"Now that she's had a baby girl, I'm hoping as she comes to the end of her career that she will use her voice to make things change for women"

and fwiw my take was this was extremely poorly written, not intended to be racist but if you Replace baby girl by white boy and change for women to change for whites, it would be received differently.....

i don't have twitter, deleted snapchat, never been on insta, and only use fb for messenger. I think i have 2-3 friends on FB that I haven't unfollowed. I actively try to avoid social media, save for 2prus2 obv

shouldn't the discussion be about if it's racist?

Spoiler:
that was my take. Then the example was posed of changing pronouns, bc if that makes it racist, then it is most certainly sexist.
