- hckr_news 6y agoNot sure why you’re getting downvoted. The platform is filled with racist Karen’s scared of a black person’s shadow. Embarrassing they don’t take more of stance against it.
- Causality1 6y agoAny measure they could take would likely just result in people posting the same drivel while leaving out the race of the person.
- soganess 6y agoIs that not better? Serious question. As long as the rule is not surface deep and people can't just turn to coded language where x_code_word always mean some_person_of_color. People will be forced to reconsider their language and hopefully their thinking.
- Causality1 6y agoWould depend on the form Nextdoor racism takes. If they talk needlessly about it after the initial report like about how they've been "seeing too many of those lately" it could work. If, however, Nextdoor racism is users just reporting black people who aren't doing anything suspicious, I suspect they'd just switch to specifying race for everyone except black people.
- hedora 6y agoHey now. Don’t be sexist and forget to mention the Ken’s.
- rvz 6y agoYou also shouldn't be transphobic and assume their gender if some of 'them' are also transgender themselves for the sake of absolute 'inclusivity'. /s
- neonate 6y agoPerhaps it was because you were pointing the finger at others while manifesting obvious prejudice yourself. (The comment originally read "Is he also".)
- suzzer99 6y agoSorry for assuming a tech company CEO is a man. What was I thinking?
