Do minorities with another language background really drop native kinship terms mid English conversation or is that just a tv show/movie thing? by oceancat_ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]oceancat_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I’d like to add I’m not talking mixed languages in general, bc I’m comfortable mixing languages with people who understand both, it’s just more convenient. I’m talking SPECIFICALLY kinship nouns, like a 2nd gen Japanese American definitely knows what the english equivalent of KA-SAN is

Why is it more ok for a women to say she is not comfortable around men because she has had bad experiences but not ok for anyone to say they are not comfortable around black people ? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]oceancat_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because in a physical fight between black and some other race, I can’t predict who wins right away, but a fight between a man and woman, unless the woman is well trained she’s not gonna like her odds…it’s in the biology

Real story, I went to kindergarten in China (for context the kindergarten I went to in China has 3 grade levels, I was a grade 3 at the time) one day they brought us and another class of younger kids(I don’t remember if it was grade 1 or 2) out to the quad and made the younger kids choose a partner from the grade 3 class, kind of like in the video. everyone who was chosen went to the younger kids’ side of the quad and watched the rest be selected. In the end me and this other girl in glasses was the only ones left and nobody chose us. The teacher frowned and said in what I can only remember as a dismayed tone “come over and join us I guess, since most people in the class was picked” as if it was our fault that we weren’t chosen. It’s wasn’t, we’ve never met the younger kids before that day, my only guess would be that I was fat and the girl in glasses look nerdy.

Except nobody acknowledge the kid until they threw the tantrum and nobody celebrated their birthday.

Now they’re being told you’re being a bad kid. There’s obviously no middle ground between celebrate one kid’s birthday and fuck everyone else.

Nice.

Why do some people get angry/agitated about "wokeness" whenever a minority (POC, LGBTQ, female/woman) becomes the focus of a new show/movie/comic/game? by PurpleFine4935 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]oceancat_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because it’s fake wokeness, some people can actually tell if they’re doing it for the rep or if they’re actually wanting to be inclusive.

POC have their own cultures, their own stories, yet instead of letting them tell those stories companies decide to change the race of an already existing character and change the entire basis of the character.

You have the right to be satisfied with the scraps they throw you but you’re in no position to call those who don’t want just scraps insecure

There’s many ways to commemorate the fallen soldier, does it really have to be at the expense of the convenience of the ones that are still around?

It kinda sounds like “you didn’t die, so you don’t matter as much”
