I have not noticed any racist stuff on nextdoor, I think the leads in the groups I have participated in would remove these kinds of messages and their participants.
I have been/am involved in three communities, all in the southeast:
1. An upper class neighborhood in a city where whites are a (slim) minority
2. A working class neighborhood in the same city where I seemed to be the only white guy
3. A rural neighborhood where almost everyone is white
I am surprised that people would write such things today, when the perils of doing so with your own name are widely understood.
- pjc50 9y agoThe penalty for making publicly racist statements is decreasing, IMO; people are still being picked off at the leading edge when they really do go unambiguously too far, but there's an entire industry of thinly disguised racist news media.
