lol that’s now how I meant it but I can see how it could be interpreted that way. I meant that the comment is clearly racist so “at worst” meaning like the OP didn’t MEAN to say something super racist but now everyone thinks they’re racist.

they’re certainly perpetuating racism in keeping the name. Clarence Thomas is Black and he’s racist against Black people, so it definitely happens.

“these days” aka “has been offensive for at least 30 years”

“colored people” is racist and if you think it’s okay to say, you’re racist too.

It’s been racist for several decades, and it’s not benign at all.

Yes we are. They are very different. One is racist, the other is not. And it’s been that way for decades. There is no excuse.

If you find yourself agreeing with a bigot, maybe reexamine your rhetoric

The fact that this racist-at-best, woefully-ignorant-at-worst comment is at +40 votes right now is pretty telling to me. Guess the userbase of lemmy.world is pretty bigoted.

I use Bitwarden, but privacyguides has a few recommendations here

So now people can deny literally anyone. People are free to put “WHITES ONLY” or “STRAIGHTS ONLY” out front
