what if the world was made of pudding

I love when people learn from their mistakes and do better #learningfrombefore but you don't have to tell us about how you didn't know something was anti-Asian and how you felt really guilty when you did. I assume you would feel a bit bad if you said slurs you didn't know were slurs? People are generally less aware of racism towards Asian people so it's not like it's a surprise, it sucks but it's not always something you have to confess to us because what would a response to that type of ask even be... what would you want us to say...

something i think a lot of white people don't understand is that saying racist antiblack things 'ironically' 'as a joke' 'satirically' or 'as bait' is still... just being racist. as if saying 'bait used to be believable' somehow undoes the disrespect? as if pointing out that its probably a bot or a psyop nullifies the slurs? as if informing me that its a meme/copypasta/reference means you're not at fault for repeating them? as if any of this is okay? it doesn't work like that. why is the hatred and disrespect of black people acceptable background noise for you? why do you find it funny?

oh good because we were all wondering if this conversation about societal woes reminds you of the OC you made six years ago in anticipation of one day being invited to join a tabletop roleplaying game
