    Your approach would have you assume this potential brown person doesn’t understand cultural norms therefore you must treat them differently than you’d treat others due to their ethnicity. That doesnt sound very inclusive to me.

      Fun fact they have bada den which is Christmas… Basically every country has their own version and they all come from the some amalgam of winter festivals.

      Thanks British empire!

      I’ve paid a tech company to get an underpaid worker to bring me fast food on Christmas… In what fucking mad universe is that about inclusion?

      Your comment comes down to “But they will love my witty banter and extra time on their phone”.

      …Congrats.

        Shitty jobs are worked by all kinds of people, and all of those kinds of people I’ve met while working shitty jobs appreciate a good laugh and break from the monotony of the shitty job.

            I like how in the face of literally everyone you’ve interacted with telling you that you’re wrong and confirming it, you’ve decided tripling down is still the play.

            Never change, friend, it will work eventually.

              I’m just proud we’ve moved past this. Lemmy is largely left leaning in my experience. And it’s nice to see radlibs getting dunked on. Means we’ve purged a lot this useless woke scolding performative garbage.

              By this point in time most radlibs have shifted to be reactionaries. The kind of people calling ICE on their undocumented neighbors because they found out someone in their family voted for Trump.

              This idiots comments actually ended up making me positive for the future; just from the reactions to them.

                That is insane, yeah I’m glad too. I really do hope we can turn this ship around, I’ve been stressing the fuck out about all this since forever now and I too hope that all this small shit that doesn’t have consequence gets removed from the conversation. I’m glad it’s happening here, I just hope it sticks on a larger scale.
