As I wrote, this is not the first time I encountered such behavior. And while you might not care, I was curious to know if there were better solutions than just accepting these kind of things passively.

To me it is wrong for such prominent instances to always be the ones getting away with this type of behavior

“Every now and then, the .ml side of this community comes through with these inaccurate tankle memes. You win some, you lose some I guess”

That’s the whole comment I wrote. If you are going to report it, at least do it correctly please.

Why indeed. I’d never create an account over there, I agree with you.

Sadly every user on Lemmy learned or will learn at their expense that interacting with most users from ml, hexbear and the likes, brings nothing positive on most occasions.

I had hoped that maybe something was done since last time I checked, but I guess I was wrong 😅

I posted here because it happened on lemmy.ml

But sadly, considering this is not the first time I’ve had the displeasure of interacting with your run of the mill, power tripping mod from ml, I won’t hold my breath waiting for their assistance I guess.

It sucks that such a large instance as no accountability though. I’d imagine it must sucks for new users having to learn on their own to be aware of the usual instances

Ugh, why did I ever bother replying to such a dick?

Considering how much fascism is on the rise globally and the results in the latest US election, most people do not in fact recognize fascism. Nor see it as the threat it is

You don’t.

That’s the whole point of Reddit

And their scare tactics worked so well that now people voted for the Republicans to remove “Obamacare” even if they need it to live…

So ignorance is also part of the answer sadly

I too am very confused and would like to know

I’ve also heard of the dessert spotted dick.

By the same logic, I assume this is a Spock’d cock?

Absolutely. I was thinking specifically about intersectionality when I wrote that, but misogynoir also applies.

I didn’t want to simply write “that’s intersectionality” and leave though, that’s why I wrote about a more practical example instead

Its a rhetorical question

No, it wasn’t. It wasn’t rhetorical. You were being racist and biased in your question and now trying to hide behind rhetorics. You think you’re the first person with bias I’ve seen who’s trying to “I was joking!” his way out of their bigotry? Lol

for you to see the flaw in the picture painted by the “meme”

There is no “flaw” in the comic. It’s showing the VERY REAL difference in treatment among white and black people

Look at the graphs for single motherhood

Maybe you should actually read the article before asking me to look only at a specific portion of the whole story. Especially since, at the very beginning, the author herself wrote

But a growing literature is demonstrating how the impact of single parenthood and family structure on children varies by racial group, including evidence that Black children experience smaller single motherhood “penalties” for some outcomes, like education.

So, once again, your comment was poorly thought out. The article you yourself shared, was exploring HOW they differ and it even talked about possible socioeconomic reasons for why there are differences. What it didn’t do, is carrying out a census to show if indeed black men are more likely to leave their families.

And now, please stop trying to wiggle your way out of your bigoted comment. I don’t care about such sad attempts. Bye

If you have no data about the “fact” (I wish I could highlight even more how much that is NOT a fact) and are asking users to provide evidence that supports that to you, maybe the question is not legit then, is it?

I think it’s both. It probably starts with gender discrimination (as the medical field highly favors men. Look at the differences in how we are taught about heart attacks for men and women for example) but then on top of that, it adds the racial discrimination.

Black women (and especially queer black women) are among the most discriminated groups sadly

No, you most definitely did not get it

Advocates are urging the Biden administration to act quickly

Why? The Liberals and Democrats as a whole acted as if everything was fine for the past 4 years. They only appointed Jack Smith 2 years after Jan 6.

They don’t need to act quickly because they are not the ones facing the bulk of consequences. Biden did not and could not care less because his party doesn’t see fascism as the existential threat that it is

Edit: if you think I’m exaggerating, remember when a few weeks before dropping out, Biden explicitily said that if he lost against Trump, he would’ve been happy with himself because at least he gave it all? Yeah. That’s not the reaction of someone who truly sees fascism as a cancer to society and democracy

Your take is only disagreeable because of how unrealistic it is. Do you honestly think everyone else, or even better, society as a whole can implement such time-consuming and long-term methods?

I’m not arguing against the worth or effectiveness of the method. It’s actually extremely impressive as a story, but is it feasible as your average way to deal with racists?

Spoiler, no it’s not feasible

Well, not everyone is going to be openly vocal about a shitty take. That’s a personal choice anyone can make. Just like I chose to express my disagreement about that original pointless comment, about my disappointment at anyone who upvoted it…and now at you too for, I’m guessing, being one of those who also upvoted that.

Am I supposed to feel bad about someone who’s playing the devil’s advocate for racist people? Lmao

I think what’s more depressing about all of this is how many people agreed with you…yuck

if there are peaceful solutions to redistributing the wealth

But that’s the whole point, there aren’t any.

The whole idea of being able to tax them fairly and properly is merely a pacifier so the people think they have a chance. And while they hope something might change, the rich actually use their power, money and influence to rig the system in a way that ensure they’ll never have to pay their fair share.

There’s no peaceful solution to the unethical and violent accumulation of wealth
