And because I had to try it…

There’s no excuse for that shit. I could see some 5 foot tall woman being nervous of a big black guy. It’s not alright, but society isn’t perfect and I’m not going to pretend it is.

But when the question is clearly and blatantly racist and Google assumes the victim is the problem? That’s every sort of fucked up.

Problem solved. Now I need to finally change my email address. I’ve definitely put that off too long.

    People do use those slurs against other people.

    You can look just on Lemmy much less the rest of the internet and find people being called “clanker lover”, discussions about using the “hard r” instead of saying clanka, and people saying “my clankas.”

    This is not being cryptic. If you can’t understand that it’s being used in direct replacement of the n-word and folk who spent their lives hearing it are taking abuse from your new beloved twist on the slur then you’re actively trying to not understand.

    You’re sitting there arguing with a near 50 year old black man that the word "clanker’ can’t offend humans about a week after I had to go try talking to my 10 year old niece’s principal because racist kids there have decided it’s cute and fun to stare at black kids and loudly talk about how much they hate “clankas.”

    Want to know her response? This same stupid shit of trying to “educate” me and reassure me than clankas means AI and they weren’t being racist at all. Try explaining to a 10 year old girl why all the people in charge who say they’re so caring don’t actually give a fuck because they have a convenient excuse to hide behind.
