        I haven’t really seen it on Lemmy as much, but Kamala losing to Trump has led to a lot of incredibly racist discussions on Reddit and Twitter. There was a very popular reddit thread the other day discussing how to best get Hispanics deported to punish them for voting for trump.

        Feels like there’s an increasingly strong idea that racism is ok as long as it’s targeting at undesirable people, as if that’s a new concept and isn’t how racism has always been justified.

            from Liberals

            I.E. the people who think they can win in identity politics alone cause that seems progressive enough. Because they look down on everyone else they are all equal minorities in their eyes.

      What an uncreative and semi-racist insult. These people abuse and oppress women and gays, marry children, run an authoritarian theocracy and you choose to make fun of them for living in a sandy environment?

        Well judging by the comment he left on my post being rude to me about being openly trans I don’t think he really cares about those people. He’s very clearly a bigoted troll.
