Well no, if you wanted to keep the discussion to marijuana then you should have stuck to actual criticisms of the drug instead of criticising potential consequences of misuse, which can apply to a lot of things. Driving unimpaired also kills innocent people, do you think driving should be banned?
So you’re also arguing alcohol should be banned?
I think you can edit everything except which community you posted it to.
Revenge was my favourite. Not for the racing, but because when you crashed you could explode your car to fuck up the competition.
It’s just a stereotype.
I need you to be honest - do you not know what stereotypes are, or do you not know what racism is? Stereotyping is one of the conceptual parts of racism, so saying it’s not racist because it’s a stereotype is like saying pizza isn’t Italian because it’s from Naples.
stopped being used offensively several decades ago, and was then repurposed into being a praise of sorts.
Could you give me sources for when this happened for “ricing” and “ricer”? Because there are a lot of people in this thread telling you that it’s still offensive, and I’m pretty sure they know a little bit more than you about racism.
Probably G2A you’re thinking of, I’m pretty certain GMG are official.
not exactly how I phrased it
Yeah, no shit buddy, and your “gist” can be pretty forcibly rejected by reading these, which use some form of the term without defending it: https://hexbear.net/comment/5821220 https://hexbear.net/comment/5819913 https://hexbear.net/comment/5821145 https://hexbear.net/comment/5819994

Bold of you to assume I have smth against groups of ppl based on their race
So it’s not that you have anything against asian people, you just think it’s ok to use a term that origtinated in saying japanese people eat so much rice they even run their cars on it. Uh huh. Would you defend the N-word on the basis that it’s a commonly used word and you don’t understand why it’s so bad?
just an assumption you’re from the US
Extremely unsafe assumption, but newsflash - your ancestors don’t need to be the specific ones who invented a racism for it to be racist to act like them. If you copy someone else’s racism you are still the one being racist. You’ve been told multiple times by multiple people that the term is racist, but you’re arguing it’s not racist because you don’t know how it’s racist. Have you maybe considered you’re just not very smart and need to study racism a bit more? Maybe learn what this whole “microaggression” thing people keep talking about it?
the “wrong” ones that used the “r-word” happened to be blocked
I’m sure you can find enough examples of the word rice, ricing, and ricer to put two and two together and realise the “r-word” isn’t what got them blocked.
there is a comment from another mod that explicitly tells they’ll remove stuff using that.
No it doesn’t, because that hasn’t happened.
nor is it derogatory in its current form
Are you really not able to put together how transferring a term used to deride body modifications (using ethnic associations) to UI modifications is derogatory? Do you think it magically lost context somewhere along the way, the history of the term just disappearing into the aether?
I’d also like to play along and give you folks another (and, arguably, a more worthy) which hunt target
Stop trying to worm out of this you wretched little shit. Defend using that on the site and you’ll also get your comments removed, but we’re talking about your racism right now.

u fukin wot
that’s 10p
I can’t get a bus 200m for less than a pound
Umm no it isn’t sweaty, it clearly says the source is [organisation founded by Adrian zenz] and [organisation that funds Adrian zenz]
Are you telling me that you have so little understanding of slurs and their use that you think people are getting banned for saying using the word rice? You cannot be serious. How dare you think you have the intelligence to hold an opinion.
I know what you’re arguing you fucking dunce, I just told you you’re wrong. There are plenty of slurs that aren’t as bad as the n-word, you’re not allowed to use any of them. And b) doesn’t matter. You don’t use the n-word even if a black person “gives you permission”, because that makes you a fucking racist.
It’s not like black people using the N-word, it’s like white people using the n-word because a stranger on the internet said it’s ok.
aside from the use of the “r-word”
You don’t think them casually dropping a slur might invalidate their opinion on whether a different word is a slur? Fucking LLM-ass logic right there.
Is this one of those things where lemmy users “remember” things that happened to hexbear, or are you telling me that the dbzero admins also got themselves banned from .ml and dessalines also decided not to defed?
I did, it names a bunch of incidents where parts shat themselves then says it’s way over budget. An actual explanation is definitely missing from the article.
K gov has officially publicly announced that anyone on X who retweets an ongoing protest is a terrorist and they will be arrested. Elon musk is officially a terrorist and the uk gov has repeatedly asked usa to hand him over.
And in france it was many times in the news about a group of friends who were arrested for using Signal. A girl they tried to convince to start using signal called the police and said they are using anonymous communication called Signal and then they were arrested and all their computers taken and forensics went through all the data on their computer and judge said its criminal evidence they have ad blockers on their browser.
Could you provide sources for these, I have never heard such a thing and can’t find anything resembling either story online.
Hey fuckface, I hope your evening was shit, now are you going to continue being an antisemite or are you going to delete your comments now they’re been proven baseless.
Literally voting for your reps is not what the government of Russia is, though…
THEY HAD ELECTIONS IN MARCH YOU DUMB FUCK
IT JUST HAPPENED
THEY LITERALLY JUST DID ELECTION BUT YOU’RE SO FUCKING BUSY HUFFING YOUR OWN FARTS YOU DIDN’T NOTICE
Oh, you’re just stupid. YES SWEETIE, OBVIOUSLY THE RUSSIANS ARE FASCISTS, YOU KEEP EATING YOUR OATMEAL AND WATCHING FOX NEWS.
Sib please get on a fucking bus once in your life. You are not allowed to smoke on them, marijuana or no.
