(maybe even cursed with a hint of melanin)

That euphemism is a lot worse than just saying "black".

[-] infinite_ass@leminal.space 3 points 1 day ago

I prefer "of coloredness"

me. That's my opinion. Being black is not a curse.

[-] papalonian@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

Awesome! According to me, the person I was talking about, "being cursed with a hint melanin" is an obvious in-joke to other black or mixed people. I'll keep describing myself however I like, and you do the same!

A curse is a condition that bestows a disadvantage. Being black is not a curse in and of itself, but being black + being in any one of many places around the world today is definitely a curse-esque combination due to racism.

I roll with disadvantage every time I try to avoid people being offended on my behalf for comments I make about myself. Such is my curse as a sarcastic biracial man in modern America.

Maybe you weren't sarcastic? Stop being so judgemental.

[-] papalonian@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I'm not being judgemental. I literally told you to continue using and disliking words as you saw fit. You're the only one that seems upset.

[-] DrDystopia@lemy.lol -1 points 1 day ago

You're not as good at sarcasm as you think. That's irony by the way.

[-] papalonian@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Once again, you're the only one that seems to be having an issue getting what I said. Seems more a you problem.

Just take the L and move on dude. It's really not that big of a deal. It's ok to make mistakes. I don't really care that you tried checking me on language I used to describe myself, like I said it happens all the time, but this constant badgering is kinda sad. I'd already completely forgotten this entire interaction happened by the time I opened every single one of your responses. It's not that serious.

The irony is that I was being sarcastic and you didn't understand the sarcasm of me arguing that I know what you ment better than yourself - As a reply to a comment where you explained yourself in no unsure terms. I didn't have a problem with your statement at all, but now I'm starting to tire of your boneheadedness. But I'll move on. I won't interact with you again so you should be at peace. Good day to you.

Are you sure that your little brother didn't send it from your phone? ๐Ÿ˜‚ Christ buddy. You have a good one too.
