I wouldn’t agree with “sticking fingers in my ears and saying it doesn’t matter” being a fair representation of what I’m trying to say here.

I would claim that in the case of person’s skin color we truly shouldn’t care about it any more than we care about the color of their hair or eyes. It’s it’s a description of appearance, not a reflection of who they are. If we want to live in a world where this is the case, then my argument is that paying more attention to it is not the way to go. I’m sure the people behind this have good intentions but it’s the method I disagree with here.

The only company I’ve ever truly been invested in is the one I’m running myself. I’ve never seen working for someone else as anything more than trading my time for monetary compensation. The only reason I ever cared about a company’s success was to ensure I still had a place to earn a living from.

If it were a small business where I felt valued, then maybe it would be different - but not when we’re talking about a company that employs hundreds and the CEO doesn’t even know me by name.

I’ll save them the trouble then and out myself here by posting the only other mention of skin color on my entire post history. Clearly I can’t stop talking about race.

Concluding that someone is a lesser human because of their skin color seems just as illogical to me as calling someone a racist because they drive a lifted truck. These things are completely unrelated.

Interestingly, your post history shows that you are very interested in skin color yourself.

Feel free to dig thru it and post it here for everyone to see.

I think we should come up with a term for the kind of people to whom the color of a person’s skin is this important.

Title says 40% of posts but the article says 40% of long-form posts yet doesn’t in any way specify what counts as a long-form post. My understanding is that the vast majority of Facebook posts are about the lenght of a tweet so I doubt that the title is even remotely accurate.

Edit: itt: brain, dead, and fascist apologist Facebook Earth, who just refuse to accept that their platform is one of the biggest advent of Nazi fascism in this country, and they are all 100% complicit.

This is some Facebook quality content you’re bringing to us here. It’s so great seeing this kind of posts on my feed first thing in the morning. Shows that it’s not just AI poisoning our social media platforms.

It’s hilarious how people turn everything into conspiracies nowdays, while at the same time dismissing every narrative they don’t like as a conspiracy too. Just today, there’s another thread about Gemini “refusing to discuss Bernie Sanders” while at the same time it gives the exact same answer when asked about Trump.
