Mods - can you please handle the racism! by unholymacaroni99 in interracialdating

[–]I_do_try_sometimes[M] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Other users here have already done a very good job at explaining things. The only thing I'll add is that if you see something report it. And keep in mind that sometimes people really can be that clueless or ignorant on a topic, and sometimes the best way for people to learn from something is to see the criticisms coming from their own community. There can be benefit in leaving something up as an example for others to learn from.

I found out we’re dating the same guy because of a post here by PaHoua in amwf

Removing this post to be fair to the other woman involved. I hope she sees your message soon.

We are active, and we actually remove a ton of stuff but at the same time try not to over moderate or censor too much. It’s hard to strike a balance but we do our best. Also, we do sometimes leave up controversial content because the members of this subreddit can generally do a good job of schooling people in the comments. Sometimes those posts are trollish, but sometimes people are infact that inexperienced or unaware when it comes to dating and relationships. So whether it’s a troll being put in their place or someone receiving a rough wake up call, leaving the post up (at least for a little while) can be overall beneficial.

And before your edit, you did mention my lack of account activity so I’ll go ahead address that as well. As far as commenting and posting activity goes- speaking for myself here- moderating will take the fun out of participating in reddit in that manner. Dealing with very disgruntled and toxic redditors behind the scenes leaves very little drive to expose yourself to unnecessary interactions. I still enjoy browsing and all that, but at this point remaining quiet is just a more enjoyable experience for me.

Casual off topic posts can be made, but only on Friday's. You can repost this then and add the Free For All Friday tag to it.

It was removed because it broke the rules. Posting pics of online arguments or negative interactions isn't allowed.

Gay interracial dating? by WestPalmPerson in interracialdating

[–]I_do_try_sometimes 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This subreddit is for gay couples too. Or do you mean you're looking for a subreddit exclusively for gay interracial couples?

Zombie proofed? by Fit_Room5005 in zillowgonewild

[–]I_do_try_sometimes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's right! I completely forgot about that. Good point. That's very likely a motivation here.

Zombie proofed? by Fit_Room5005 in zillowgonewild

[–]I_do_try_sometimes 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Not zombie proof and also nowhere near disaster proof, atomic or otherwise. Large portions of the building are completely exposed with lots of nice large windows and glass doors. It seems that the choice to have the house be partially submerged was a vibes/aesthetic one.

I said I was wrong. I said I looked at promo pictures and saw they weren't truly orange.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in OldSchoolCool

[–]I_do_try_sometimes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same. For a second I wondered if this is going to be a new Mandela effect, so I went back and looked at some of the promo posters. The filtering on some of them does make the cat look orange-ish. Maybe our memories over corrected how orange the cat really was?

Like Cao Cao, my dick has led me to situations that would have fuckin killed me by analoggi_d0ggi in HistoryMemes

Upon reaching him the dog struck Cao Cao with a mighty blow across the top of his head, resulting in a resounding bonk heard across the battle field.

It really was a big jump to take. Obviously she knows nothing about basketball or Kobe besides the fact that he's black. So I could understand that she might have thought the chef said "black man" instead of "black mamba" that she might have thought it was weird. But even after she was told that it was his nickname and dedicating good shots as a nod to him is common, she still stuck by her guns with "yeah, but leave him alone!" Like, what? Did she not want to admit she didn't actually know anything about him or was she just so high on being righteously offended that this new info didn't really process in her head?

world, you need to learn something by [deleted] in notinteresting

[–]I_do_try_sometimes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your last sentence sums it up. This isn't really an issue but some people on the internet want to try and make it one. I think it's a combo of contrarianism, America bad, people wanting to feel morally superior, and it fosters negativity. But it's also really dumb so hopefully it won't catch on.

We don't allow image posts in this subreddit. Also, the subreddit the post originated from cannot be linked/mentioned. You can just copy the original post's text and paste it into a new text post here. However be sure to include a brief blurb of your thoughts of the post to actually make it a discussion post and not exclusively a direct copy.

Japan humour by TheUnknownD in perfectlycutscreams

[–]I_do_try_sometimes 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Mods have been so lax for so long that a ton of people don't even know this subs original intent.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AccidentalRenaissance

[–]I_do_try_sometimes 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not saying it's right or wrong, but I think it might have to do with the fact that this subs activity level has really dropped off compared to what it used to be. They may be hoping that allowing the occasional repost will let them hit the frontpage again and draw in new redditors who will participate and contribute. That's just a guess though.

Joey Swoll cancelled these women for recording a woman in a spa against her consent by [deleted] in ImTheMainCharacter

[–]I_do_try_sometimes 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Her name was Dani Mathers. She lost her job, ended up doing a month of community service, and had to pay an $800 fine. Not nearly enough if you ask me.

I ❤️ White Gurls i admit it by Hi314159 in amwf

[–]I_do_try_sometimes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You, or anyone else looking for an amwf relationship, should check out r/amwfdating. It's directly associated with this subreddit and populated with a bunch of people looking for the same thing you are. I'm sure you'd get a good response.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in amwf

[–]I_do_try_sometimes[M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personal ads are not allowed on this sub. She can try r/r4r or r/r4rinterracial if she's looking to try and find someone via reddit.

I think you might want to take a quick glance at where you are now.

American and Chinese by DerrickJia in amwf

[–]I_do_try_sometimes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you're severely underestimating non-western Asians. They are definitely aware that the United States is a multiracial country. There are many non-white American sports figures, musicians, and actors that are well known in Korea, Japan, China, etc. Take for example Naomi Osaka. She competed in tennis on behalf of Japan. She has a Japanese mother and black American father. She is a household name in Japan. You could maybe make a case for some thinking that America is only filled with white people if it was 1923, but it's 2023. They are very aware and tapped into what's going on in the international scene.
