Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

It doesn't seem to be sadly as people are still arguing the point that it wasn't and ignoring that actual black people weighed in too.
If Beehaw is dedicated to keeping that kind of person around I think I'll leave as I'd rather not be around people so dedicated to upholding such things.
Let's take a beat. Musical reference, not violence. Your post was discussed at the sort of length among the mods that usually results in a new pope. But having seen the screenshots, this is grievance, not racism.
If you truly believe we are an unwelcoming community, there's a very simple solution. The admins are among the best people I have met in my life in terms of moral character and ethics and are, indeed, the reason I wanted to join this community. I highly doubt that the theoretical community you want exists.
We're all on edge. Ascribing that to imagined malice violates the ethos of this instance. I'd mention Hanlon, but there also isn't incompetence in play. This is you inventing drama that is not useful to the community.
Please reconsider whether this is a good approach to take with other humans.
We aren't human. But okay, we will.
