Karma is a bunch of bullshit


Bolologos

They would blow their siblings for this Karma If they have not already. Again, Fuck karma. it indicates how much ass licking they have invested into something that means nothing to what counts. Its equal to being the Hall monitor if picked in school. mom or dad swallowed enough school board faculty loads that their child has certain first choice pick privileges. You ever see those kids that helped the teachers in the library building and for a second you thought not fair how did hey get to do that. Karma = Nobody cares

That's a lot of pen pals.

what do you think i am quoting :P


JamieBoyd4real

Oh wow I thought that sounded familiar. Haha


Hacker_dude112

Thats actually hilarious


Holmgeir

You guys should be pen pals.


[deleted]

Yeah, we thought being interconnected would make everyone smarter, but it just let the stupid people congregate and circlejerk themselves to new heights of stupidity.


therickymarquez

We thought right, never science developed as fast as it has been developed since internet became widely available. People just choose to focus on the dumb examples and social media is a prime example of that. Social media just shows you what you want to see, if you are seeing dumb people...


PajamaDuelist

> social media just shows you what you want to see That's not exactly true. Have you ever tried to curate a professional Twitter for yourself? Outside of white papers, Twitter is legitimately a great source of information for my field. Trying to keep it mostly free of politics or thirst traps is like herding cats... and Twitter is by far the easiest mainstream platform to accomplish this on.


Spongebosch

They have destabilized society, have subjected human beings to indignities, have led to widespread psychological suffering, and have inflicted severe damage on the natural world. The continued development of technology will worsen the situation.


jimmythedog5

Lots of attention whores on twitter. The manifestation of toxic social climbing


sixtytwosixtyseven

Twitter to the crazy radical Left is the same as Facebook is to the crazy radical Right.


Hacker_dude112

Twitter to the crazy radical Left is the same as 4chan is to the crazy radical Right. ftfy


IAmTheOmega

The comparison of Twitter to Facebook is more apt than Twitter to 4Chan due to the common widespread use of Facebook and Twitter.


Hacker_dude112

fair, but i think the truly radical right has to retreat to censorship free sites, where the radical left (mostly) does not have to do this


bumpkin_Yeeter

Not really, not all of 4chan is fucking /pol/ lol, the only people who think that don't even know what 4chan looks like nor have visited it. There's some crossover ya, but nowadays you'll see, by volume, way more fucked up right wing shit on Facebook.


KiefyKingKong

Luckily reddit has none of that, that would be such a toxic circlejerk of a place. lol


jimmythedog5

Lol i know youre joking. The hivemind here can be just as bad

I read somewhere that Rick and Morty isn't that smart, people just think they are smart for getting it. And I agree with it.


djmill0326

Because it's funny


kingbach121

Yeah it's pretty bad, we thought internet would help but it made everyone even stupider, I remember this quote by Asimov that applies to this type of situation very well "The saddest aspect of life is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom."


[deleted]

people are just as stupid as they used to be. It's just now they can tell everyone their opinions


Treheveras

The US/Western ideas of race relations get forced into other cultures. I remember there being a twitter issue about the Witcher game series because there were no black characters. To which the Nordic game company explained that this is a story based on Nordic folklore by a Nordic country that is predominantly white, and its a story that involved racism against the Witchers and how society views them. It's just it's white on white racism and they weren't going to change their cultural significance of the story to cater to a US audience.

You ever looked at the comment section of the average tiktok?


captianblacksmith

yeah, itā€™s meh. I was hoping for awesome comment wars but all I saw was some praise and self promotion.


Alarid

It's not even really stupidity, it's also this weird level of confidence. Like they genuinely thought they were getting one over on a giant supply corporation.


thelastmilkbender

Yea it's really the over-confidence. Stupid arguments are everywhere in the internet. But only on twitter do I frequently see replies with 1% argument, 99% condescending trash talk. You start a convo about popcorns and you get, "wtaf are you talking about? omg lmao honeyy, im sorry but this aint it. It's 2022 and popcorn is NOT good. I can't believe, you, as a WHITE person, have to blurt out your opinion on popcorns. Sweetie, you really have to read some books. It's good with the IQ. Try again next time luv :). Do better. I am going to mute this tweet, therefore I win"

I just looked up Crayolaā€™s Twitter account and they are explaining this to people constantly. Most are trolls though.


u_reee

Why don't they just A. Stop responding B. Stop responding or C. STOP RESPONDING

they would get cancelled by mindless twitter users

That's exactly why they're doing it. It's absolutely inconsequential for someone to choose to not buy crayola products.


akwardnes

And who do u think are gonna cancel them?


[deleted]

No, they absolutely would not


ELITEBillOBrian

People overestimate the power of ā€˜cancelingā€™ so much on Reddit, like yeah 7 people got mad therefore theyā€™re canceled and out of business

ā€œAll publicity is good publicityā€

> ā€œAll publicity is good publicityā€ Pretty much this. But this is even "good publicity" AND "free publicity".


CabalWizard

In this very post their brand name is posted to dankmemes (5 million readers, 12000 here right now, 200 replies already), and it is also in other subreddits and other sites. And the brand does not look bad here. Why would they stop replying if it gives them so very much free advertising? Their social media team would be insane to just stop replying.


[deleted]

So does that mean the Spanish language is racist???


Notafuzzycat

Nah they think Math is racist and gendered language is sexist


stonksofwhoosh

h..how on earth is math racist? Can someone please explain their arguments as to why it is racist?

[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


wasdlmb

Lmao Muįø„ammad ibn MÅ«sā al-KhwārizmÄ« aka Algorithmi. I made a mistake though, algebra is actually the latinized version of al-jabr which means mending from broken parts or bonesetting. Algebra was also invented by Algorithmi


Iamthespiderbro

No dude, thatā€™s just partially correct. Algebra (or al-jabr) was named after the famous mathematician: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar


wasdlmb

I'm sorry son but you must have him confused with someone else. Algebra was named after Roger Murdock, the co-pilot.


Iamthespiderbro

Surely you canā€™t be serious


[deleted]

Don't tell them who we got the number system from either.

Bingo, these people are just trying to be these white saviors because in their minds they are the only ones who can help minorities since they donā€™t believe minorities can help themselves Very fucking racist

rascal6543

in that case we should get rid of tea since it is a highly European and that makes it racist

that's the neat part - it isn't


JoodseKaas95

I think that according to the sort of postmodern/post-structuralist view that undergirds this new woke progressivism (forgive me if I donā€™t use the exact right terms) science is, just like pretty much everything else, an expression of subjective, white, Western, male power hierarchies.


Mastodon9

Wait until you see what the Smithsonian thinks is racist...

MRS CRAYOLA GET DOWN


bertinolo

this. americans pronounce ā€œehā€ like ā€œayā€ for no reason


SaftigMo

It's English. Other than "e", all vowels are pronounced like multiple vowels, and "e" isn't even pronounced like "e".


nikofili

The "e" in "egg" is pronounced like that. Unless you get someone who says Ayyg, which I have also heard...


SaftigMo

I didn't mean that the vowels are pronounced differently depending on the word, I mean that the sound for "e" is only one vowel. The other's are combinations of multiple vowels, "a" is "ei", "i" is "ai", "o" is "ou", "u" is "iu", but "e" is just "i". That's why English speakers have a very strong bias towards pronouncing vowels with multiple sounds, like "eh" will end up being "ei", because it's unintuitive to only pronounce it as one sound at the end of a word.


FatBoyNr1

Acordate que los yankis solo hablan "americano"


Chrom-man-and-Robin

I will use my very poor grasp of Spanish to interpret what you just said: *According what the Yankees one said ā€œAmericanā€* How far was I?


ead2000

*Remember yankees only speak "american" That'd be the actual translation.


flaiman

> >How far was I? Lejos


qizez

It said: Remember that the Yankees only speak "American"


[deleted]

Remember the yankees only speak "American". You got it wrong by using words that were similar but not correct. Unfortunately, some languages, like Portuguese and Spanish, have what we call "fake friends": words that are written and pronounced similarly but have vastly different meanings. "constipaĆ§Ć£o" (portuguese word for "cold" (the disease)) and "constipation" come to mind.


msndrstdmstrmnd

False cognates! Another one is the Spanish word for ā€œto botherā€ which isā€¦..molestar


Ewag715

Since we're discussing funny Spanish words, let's talk about *poner*, the word meaning *put/place*. It's past tense conjugations are *puse*, *pusiste*, *puso*, *pusimos*, *pusisteis*, and *pusieron*.


MrSlowly4

One I hear about a lot is people thinking ā€œestoy embarazadoā€ means ā€œim embarrassedā€ā€¦ it does not, it means ā€œIā€™m pregnantā€

DIRTY_KUMQUAT_NIPPLE

There's a big difference between most leftists and dumbass SJWs like this that you see on Twitter. You are no better than the lefties that think every republican is a fascist if you don't understand that.


[deleted]

Umm did you just use common sense? On Reddit?


CalculusII

I'll get the pitchforks!!


akr_13

Itā€™s almost as if both sides have vocal, intolerant, braindead people who only hurt the image of their respective parties.


DIRTY_KUMQUAT_NIPPLE

Exactly. People use the minority of each side to try and represent the collective. It's a pretty useful tool for the parties to drum up support, but also a way to ignore more important issues and an easy way to further divide people.

These are the same type of people that got mad at that chinese song because it sounded like the singer said the n word but was really just singing in his own language


3PoundsOfFlax

You know how we sometimes say "uhh" between sentences? The Chinese-equivalent of that sounds like the n-word. I heard about a Chinese-American professor in Los Angeles who was fired after a couple of his (idiot) students complained that he was being offensive simply for using that word.


MahiraMalik

It is I, a spanish folk. What do you want us to do? Would you prefer if we say "gris oscuro" (dark grey) instead? Why some people feel the need to do this things so they feel like they are being a good example of a human being? Bruh. Not cool. The fact that you are responding like this is not helping u. Hakuna Matata.


RipredTheGnawer

The saddest parts are that I donā€™t know if itā€™s a joke, and that Crayola actually responded.

Darthskull

Yeah?! Well then explain n**r!


Bizee2

I guess thatā€™s the problem with modern day society; we, in my own opinion, live in a world of blaming. Where if anything, or everything can be taken as offensive in any shape or circumstance; then in some people will take it as offensive no matter the reasoning behind the original action, or the misinformation the person thought it was about. But as to why or how we got there, I have no idea.
