minus-square@Shardikprimelink28•5 days agoIn Spanish we ask for a café negro or café negrito all the time and guess how many people are offended about it? Zero.
minus-square@johannesvanderwhaleslink11•5 days agoNobody is offended by it in English, either. This comic is, y’know, a joke.
minus-squareFlying Squidlink3•5 days agoBelieve it or not, I’ve met two white people, both from the Southern U.S., who would look around and whisper the word “black” when they used it. When talking about black people, but also in other contexts.
