Waddya mean by turn dark? 🤔 kinda sounds like a hashtag snowflake conservatives would use to bitch and moan about minority representation in media haha
It’s a common expression, hence people downvoting you and making snarky comments. When someone uses a common phrase and it’s met with someone asking a frankly silly, seemingly loaded, clarifying question, it feels a bit like shit stirring, ya know?
It wasn’t common to me, I’ve never heard of that hashtag (I don’t use Twitter) and it’s not used by any of my family or friends, which is why I asked.
Contrary to the ideology of assume first ask never, I did the opposite and tried to politely ask what they meant.
I could care less about downvotes from people who’d rather make an assumption first than simply ask someone to elaborate or participate in conversation rather than black and whiting everything all the fucking time lol.
Sounds like a miserable life imo, I feel bad for them more than anything, vicious cycle.
Long story short, people should be more inquisitive and less judgmental imo.
Right, politely ask about the stuff some “snowflake” would say. The expression is someone “turning to the dark side” which I find very hard to believe you haven’t heard. You came across very much as assuming they were saying something political.
Yeah, that’s a good point. That was a lazy adjective I used for a quick jab. Didn’t really add anything and it only confused what I wanted to actually say because I got greedy.
Thanks for keeping level headed and talkin about this with me - I’m gonna leave it as is and take this one on the chin rather than edit it and try to rewrite things.
I think your earlier comment was not well received because you asserted a wild theory as a part of your question. Your intention may have been truth-seeking in good faith, so the unnecessary presumption was counterproductive.

Ok bud. Not everything is quite so political. Think more “dark side of the force” and less “dark side of the skin tone spectrum.”
I was aware of both sides of the coin, which is why I asked the commenter to clarify.

I get what you mean however:

Hey man, I appreciate the humility! Takes a lot to own up to things. You take care.

I totally agree, I muddled the inquisitive tone for some ingroup social points. Totally counterproductive. Appreciate this view point
Haha, yeah. Too much representation, boo-hoo, why don’t I see enough white people on tv?
So you do or don’t mean that 😅 still unclear
Sorry, I drop the /s
Haha fair enough
