      It’s ok, some people see racism in everything. It’s hard just being human if you have to constantly second guess everything just incase it might seem racist. It’s only racist if it was intentional.

        Meh, hard disagree. Outright intentional racism (and of other forms of hate) are terrible, but at least they’re openly visible.

        The more dangerous form is the everyday unintentional ingrained beliefs that people have even against their core values, like how I am more impressed by a female programmer or the way I at first misread that meme.

        It’s those that are more widespread and make it so much harder to eradicate the openly intentional hate.

      Yeah it didn’t help that I was half asleep. Just found it funny enough to be shared; of course didn’t wanna imply anything.
