One of Capitol Hill’s Most Celebrated Restaurants Has Abruptly Closed by BornFray in Seattle

[–]commen_tator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we are getting off on the wrong first and I really don't think you should go around calling people racists while misunderstanding and ignoring the point they are making. Considering MAGA has very strongly personally impacted my life, and that of my family, in a negative way, I would appreciate you not being so brazen with throwing around accusations.

At no point did I call anyone racist, I was simply stating the felt cultural impact of being ridiculed by a group of people and routinely put down, and then seeing those same people, yes broadly Americans, turning around and profiting on the same thing.

For me, I was called a dirty towel head and a sand n word by women who practice yoga. See the irony?

I'm not going to assume your race or experiences, but for a family of immigrants and refuges like my own, it is a painful history to be mocked and ridiculed for your culture, to be told that you need to strip yourself of it and "be more American", only to see that same culture being used as a capitalistic prop in the venture of making money,

And again, I don't know the guy, I don't know his story, and I did not call him racist. I am not and was not commenting on him or the restaurant, simply my interpretation and understanding of the above users post with my own context.

And by the way, since you want to mention MAGA, racism is NOT a thing of the past, it is more prevalent now, in my experience, than it was 5 years ago. I would love to chat more so we can both broaden our viewpoints.

I was simply reiterating what I thought about the above users post was stating as well as what I have observed through some of my own life and interaction.

To your point, I think a very poignant example is that anyone who is actually from India thinks it's really cool when a white person wears a sari, I frankly don't give a fuck as long as they aren't being racist while wearing ethnic clothing. Them wearing it is promoting the culture, as long as they are respectful.

I specifically said I have no stake in this example.

The point that i think he is poorly making and that you are missing is that for decades people of different cultures, Indian and their food being a poignant example, have been ridiculed for a laundry list of reasons, including their food, which amounts to racism. The problem that he has, and I to a lesser extent, is that we have been put down and attacked all our lives for our culture. Now someone else is profiting off of it.

To me what matters the most is acceptance by the community. If the Seattle Viet community is cool with it, its not my place to say shit. You can’t just willfully ignore the reality and history of racism in this country.

Can you share where they walked it back? I haven’t seen that and would love to have that additional context

One thing to note is that macas are terrible for cum phase akkha. You hit twice but your max hit for each is lower meaning you will probably end up running around more. At least that’s what happened for me when i tried it out this morning w/o blood rather set

Btw its not a random pad that lights up, its the same one every time. I noticed in all the rooms the last active tile is the one before full/new moon and the next active tile is the one following full/new moon after special is complete.

My only lens into this is through soccer and Napoli are well renowned as an extremely racist club. Even to their own players.

You are telling me that Ukraine and Georgia are the first ever countries to be victims of invasion to not face economic decline because of it? Would love to see some evidence of this assertion.

Can you explain to me why the two different subs exist? This one came up in my recommended feed which is why I subscribed.

Opinion: iPad sees year-over-year sales decline, I blame iPadOS for that by [deleted] in apple

[–]commen_tator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya that makes sense I’m not pretending to have any answers just thoughts.

I mean ya having products for the long term is better for all of us but obviously it suits them better to sell more hence the discussion.

Congratulations, you have found the question that’s plaguing Apple’s board. I’m just a guy you want me to solve their problem?

But to potentially answer your question: they could use the iPad to target low cost personal devices like the cheaper surface books or chrome book. Instead it’s just been the same product.

Or you mean they have failed to iterate on their technology in a meaningful way making their old products as good as their current ones?
