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.

The phrasing of "more civilised places" in the comment you mention seems highly problematic to me, yes. I think the "stupid Americans" is your biased interpretation though.
Oh, btw I wouldn't call people from the USA "Americans", because it is just one of many countries in the Americas. Another blind spot in the US perspective.
Haha, "why so defensive"?
Nah, I meant "stupid americans". They were right.
Oh, OK. Yeah, I understand now why the other person got defensive. I obviously also get your anger at US people. But why would you then throw "civilised people" around? Imo this reinforces colonialist viewpoints of civilised vs uncivilised people.
ETA: oh wow, scrolling through your recent posts you seem to have a lot of oppressive and conservative opinions.
Wouldn't describe them as oppressive, I'm just a constitutional monarchist and I recently started a flame war over why I don't think religion should be destroyed lmao.
Also the white Europeans living in America are colonialists and those are the ones I am referring to as uncivilised, not indigenous. So I apologise if you thought that I was referring to indigenous people.
Okay so I don't need you in my feed then. Blocked. Hope more follow suit
