@pschwede Except that it does not, in fact, prevent future X-ism, since it is X-ist itself it has created new X-ism and does nothing to actually eliminate the old X-ism.

In fact usually when you come up with derogatory group-based terms that are sexist or racist the end result is to just inflame the racism on both sides and make it worse.

Any attempt to justify racism or sexism by claiming it is an attempt to eliminate it is flawed.

@inverness01

I dunno about all that now. Last time I looked a year ago Fox news was still mostly outright lies and spin. Agenda first, facts second.

@SecondJon @design_RG

I think im going to be a rebel and make black-pudding fried rice. I will just call it blood rice.

I wonder if i can just buy blood somewhere and try that in a fried rice directly..

I got a docker-compose file written, integration tests working, documentation updated, sample curl statements all figured out.. very productive day. Time for sleep.

@punkymcmunky Hi, cant wait to start reading your posts. Nice to meet you!

@Heavenlybliss Hi!

@jahnke still recovering, was a spina hernia.

@jahnke I used to bike a lot before my spinal surgery

@SamD Welcome, it is nice to have you!

@arteteco hehe, me too :)

@missmolamola Sure, it is now offically changed to "two'ed"

@pschwede So you are ok with ther term "blacksplaining" using the same logic? As long as its used to label some rhetoric its fine?

@float13 enjoy!

@pschwede

It takes a simple lithmus test to see why something might be sexist, simply apply it to other groups and see if the racism shows...

Would telling a woman every time she gets condescending that she is "womansplaning" be sexist?

If everytime a black person got uppity at you and tried to explain something and you called it "blacksplaining" would this be racist?

To me anytime I use the pattern above on virtually any race, sex, orientation, anything, it comes across as rude, childish, and prejudice.

@pschwede why would anyone find the word holocaust racist? How is that related, I dont follow.

Regardless as I said where we disagree is basically in how offensive that term is, which is fine. We can discuss our views on why that is racist or not, but it will largely taint how we iew the video and what we conclude about it, so its really the only aspect we disagree on in principe.

@design_RG

I find it funny that basically from 0 - 18 yo we live in a draconian dictatorship run by our parents where they have complete control, dictate almost every aspect of our lives, have complete legal authority, and make up propaganda like Sanra Clause to keep us in line.

Is it any wonder as adults we seek government to control us more and more through more regulation and laws. I think for many its just a psychological replacement for what we had as kids, and just as we did as kids we love to rebel against our masters :)

@hackerjunkie

@pschwede What he said or how he said it might determine if he is worthy of contempt or not but would not change the contempt for what she said.

If we agree its a sexist term (which we dont, so we would have to debate that point first).. Then her saying it is inappropriate regardless of what she was responding to.

Its no different than the unexcusable use of the word "nigger", if someone use that in a derogatory way towards another person then it is never acceptable regardless of the reason. I would say anytime we deal with prejudice language towards a sex or race this holds true.
