The thing about Canadian politeness is partly true. I've not seen other groups apologize for their foot being stepped on.

MissEchelon posted:Ahaha please post some of this, I love Albertan conservative tears, I've missed em since I moved away I specifically avoid it when I can. Bad enough my Albertan father said America went to hell when Obama was elected. He didn't like when I pointed out that Obama's still pretty right wing by Canadian standards.

Practical Demon posted:Sorry, I didn't realize not liking people cutting minorities out of profiting from their own culture was a controversial opinion. They're not owed a profit. If they can't cater to the market, someone will.

Practical Demon posted:Guess they should have pulled harder on those bootstraps. Ahahaha, no, jackass. If you aren't pulling in the people you want, cater to them. It's a service industry. Not a culture faire. Bootstraps has nothing to do with it. They already have a restaurant. Changing décor isn't bootstraps.

Practical Demon posted:I was joking. I didn't say anything about people being owed a profit as you said. I just said it's a dick move. And as CommonShore said, just changing decor to cater to white people isn't going to help restaurants located in places deemed "bad" parts of town. And struggling restaurants don't necessarily have the funds to revamp their interiors. It's just a lovely situation, and people capitalizing on it to cut others out is just lovely behavior, no matter how good a market strategy it is. Ah, okay. I'm sorry. As put now, I agree.

Lady Naga posted:Advertising is inherently a predatory practice so yes people who "fall for it" are victims. Holy poo poo. Holy loving poo poo. Advertising is predatory. Yes. But, it's equally predatory. They don't give a gently caress about you having a dick or a vag or what you identify as. If they can say or do something to make you pay an extra dollar, they will. This is not a women's issue. This is a marketers are shitheads issue. Congratulations on making the most retarded stand possible on the most retarded issue, and setting back progress on real women's issues by years.

Otisburg posted:Outside of the Something Awful Dot Com Forums, terms can pass or be borrowed from one vernacular to another without it being some kind of ironic, mocking affectation. I'm aware, but as I said, I never heard it used by the original group, and was providing rebuttal + context as to why it's not as simple as a sweeping "if you don't like bae you're racist." From my frame of reference, it was first used by white 20somethings, so the initial association was racist-seeming usage, which is a tough association to move past for just a word.

goose fleet posted:Can we just merge all of these threads into a single "PYF Awkward Internet Bullshit" No, because there's too many posts between all the threads to have any sort of cohesion of thought. Also, not everyone wants to follow each thread. I don't follow the AUG thread because I can just look in a mirror if I want that, and I don't follow anti-food porn because I have enough issues with food. Frankly I find it juvenile and mealy mouthed of the mods to do that. "Wah, I don't like these threads so I'm going to poo poo them up." Regular posters get probation for that poo poo.
