A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Agreed, it definitely has always been there. I'm from a diverse family that covers all races, as well as many ethnicities and countries of origin. Even within my family, I've experienced racism, colorism, etc, and it was always baffling to me growing up. I think the internet has allowed the ghouls to finally feel comfortable taking their mask off in public. If we could stop that hate, especially from majority groups (regionally dependant), then we could truly push for societies that lift us all up.
Agreed! That is wild but yeah that makes sense all races have that dog in em lol. Especially ones that have experienced colonialism I feel. The Internet for real has done that. I dunno why people felt like they have to say slurs, but like I also feel like some people don't really care to look beyond the surface and are very as long as it doesn't affect me I dont care. Which truly pisses me off. General apathy just generally pisses me off. Like you can say use stats to say x group of people do more crime and end there or look into the underlying factors that lead to that and its just so lazy and uncurious.
