I think about this a lot. If Hitler offered me 10 million dollars I'd take it, but that doesn't mean I have to like him. I'm OK with admitting people I don't like sometimes did good things, even if by accident. I think this is logically consistent because there are a lot of people I think are really good that occasionally do bad things.

If the developers' wants and needs don't intersect with a given user, there is no way forward for that user, community manager or not.

So then why are people swimming across rivers and getting ensnared in razor wire, vs legally crossing at designated entry points? If they intend to surrender to border patrol, why not enter the US where the border patrol is present instead of sneaking across? In Tijuana, one can stand in line, get cleared by customs and enter the country. None of that has anything to do with razor wire.

Texas is kidnapping Mexican children and drowning them in the river?

I think we are on the same page.

use of racial discrimination was a good thing

I can never agree to this, in any context.

they’re being excluded

Correct. They're being excluded, based on their race.

It does if you start with the assumption that you need to do ANYTHING POSSIBLE in the name of equity, including causing further inequities at the individual level.

DEI is clearly harmless.

Make sure to mention that to all the Asians excluded from Harvard.

Shouldn't everyone be celebrating this? Take all the 'undesirables' and plunk them in the middle of nowhere. Then, when they fail, they'll have to REALLY do some gymnastics to blame the left.

while you seem to believe dave chappelle is solely to blame for his jokes about the trans community, you must understand the complexities surrounding this issue. before we begin discussing whether or not it's fair for him to "punch down," let us first acknowledge the fact that as a black comedian, he cannot possibly perpetuate discrimination due to being part of an underrepresented minority himself.

the reality is that chappelle, like any other stand-up comic, relies on material that resonates with audiences. since he began exploring this topic, it has evidently been a crowd favorite, resulting in netflix supporting his actions. despite feeling disheartened by this, one must respect freedom of speech and artistic expression.

additionally, it's crucial to recognize that black individuals, including chappelle, face systemic racism, oppression, and injustice daily. many argue that humor is a tool used by marginalized communities to cope with adversity. while the subject matter may appear insensitive to some, context and history should be considered when judging the appropriateness of these jokes.

in conclusion, while your intentions to expose the underlying reasons behind netflix's support may have been noble, the notion that black people can discriminate is steeped in ignorance. rather than labeling someone as a villain in this situation, perhaps the focus should shift towards encouraging open discussions surrounding race, gender identity, and comedy.

the comparison between the struggles of black individuals and transgender individuals is valid, yet it's important to understand each community's unique challenges. while both groups share a common goal of equality and fair treatment, they face distinct battles rooted in different forms of discrimination.

black people have historically dealt with segregation, police brutality, voter suppression, housing disparities, and many other racially motivated issues. they've made significant progress in terms of civil rights over the past few decades, thanks to the efforts of activists, organizations, and legislation. however, there's no denying that these issues persist, requiring continued work towards eradication.

transgender individuals, on the other hand, primarily struggle with gender identity and expression. they fight against misconceptions, prejudice, and bias, which often manifests as restricted access to facilities, employment, healthcare, etc. trans people also experience higher rates of violence compared to the general population, which illustrates the severity of their plight.

while both groups have experienced similar periods where the right to basic services was denied based on an inherent characteristic, their journeys are not identical. this isn't about pitting one group against another; rather, acknowledging that the battle for equal rights is ongoing for everyone regardless of race, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other aspect of human diversity.
