So good luck with that. That said, as a well armed person with a concealed carry permit, I would be delighted if some racist shitheel lurking here did doxx and find/confront/threaten me. It also warms my heart to know that this thread is that upsetting to peckerwoods. Anything that makes them uncomfortable is good.

Majorian posted:Yeah, it's just kind of lovely that people tend to overlook the Copts, when, you know. They have arguably the best claim to being descendants of pharaohs. We dont need your pity. As far as religious and ethnic minorities go we've had a prosperous run and ended up much luckier than most. We're the inheritors to a legacy of scholarship, architecture, and exploration that stretches back further than almost any other. Even when it was under Roman, Mamluk, Ottoman, French, British, or even Albanian foreign rule Copts have had a home on the banks of the Nile for the better part of 10,000 years. Funny story, Mamluk Sultans were famous for ceremonially dismissing Coptic bureaucrats or civil servants under religious pretexts (often there would also be political reasons) only to quietly re-hire them almost immediately when the court's attention had turned elsewhere. Even today when sectarian conflicts are tearing apart the Middle East and North Africa, neither myself or anyone in my family has ever been made to feel unsafe in Cairo. Even the Richest family in Egypt are Coptic.

With it mentioned, the people doing the lame doxx poo poo aren't just doing it to this thread, the trans thread had to be hidden because of these dumbfucks and they're apparently up to similarly creepy stuff about the lady crew people and all that too. Not like that diminishes the terrible thought in the first place, but I mean I guess take some minute solace in that it's not specially about this place? They're just stupid assholes in general.

I'm not too worried. As long as you don't post personal info on the forums, you'll be fine. Anytime you're online you need to take certain precautions. I think posters here will be alright. And honestly, I don't want this to cast a cloud over negrotown.

Dommolus Magnus posted:Santa Claus is only loosely based on St. Nick anyway. I'm sure the real St. Nick never even saw a reindeer. There really is no reason why you could'nt have a black Santa. If memory serves Santa Claus as Americans know him is ultimately based on the Dutch character, which is an amalgamation of St. Nicholas and Father Christmas which was an English thing. The Dutch character is called "Sinterklass" or "Sinterklaus" or something like that and looks more like a cardinal with a huge white beard than Santa as we know him. The American Santa looks more like Father Christmas. Father Christmas has his origins in very old folklore from the English Isles which is pagan as hell. Seems to be a common thing in Christian white people culture; take something somebody else made, appropriate it, then be all like "no we totally came up with this on our own!" Santa, like many things Christmas, is really a pagan thing in the end and not Christian at all. Christmas itself isn't even in the right time of year if you go by when Jesus was born. There's also no actual record of his birthday. In a way it's white people appropriating white people culture but it also shows the friction between Germanic pagan stuff and Christian Europe doing its thing. Which is bizarre when you consider that white supremacists consider Germanic peoples to be the best when the origins of American culture, when traced back, are Italian as hell thanks to Rome and its shenanigans.

Please do not underestimate how dangerous this poo poo can be.

Please stay safe. So I take it this is supposed to harass the black posters back into staying silent while some forums user(s) can go back to indulging in unironic racism and bad faith arguing without feeling threatened?

This is an actual cover from a magazine from 1902: I love that Saint Nicholas of Myra probably looked like an olive-skinned, dark-eyed Eastern Mediterranean dude (since that's what he was), and therefore most racists would probably assume he was a terrorist.

They may be stupid to you, but a lot of us take pride in our culture and that it has endured despite how strongly others try to steal it or destroy it. I was referring more to the issue of white-Santa and the history/origins of the tradition being from what is considered nowadays to be the "white" part of the world, despite all of those parts of the world the tradition has hopped between historically not really identifying strongly with eachother outside of religion and having cultural elements that have at times overlapped but have for the most part been distinct, and with the peoples also considering themselves to be distinct rather than some kind of cultural monolith. And the issue of appropriation being what I think is a terribly tribalistic approach to notions of who is entitled to be influenced or affected by culture. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Then you have a very poor understanding of cultural appropriation as a concept, and I'd strongly advise you to do some reading before you come in all judgmental. We'll let you know when we next have a shortage of people who have very strong opinions about stuff they're only vaguely familiar with, but at the moment, there's a bit of a queue.
