Nobody knows you're a dog on the internet.

Bro don’t mention it. The humans might catch on to it. Did you see what they did to the fruitfly brain

Its like when charlie kirk forgot to log into his alt on Twitter and commented on his own post saying he was a black man lol

[–] ChrisLePerl@thelemmy.club 4 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

did that really happen? wild if true

[–] AdolfSchmitler@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Idk if it's real or was a photoshop but I wouldn't put it past him to do something like that

This can mean two things at the same time:

  1. A racist white guy who poses as a black woman online to spread his opinions (the take most people seems to be getting).
  2. An actual black woman being tired of only talking about racism, triggering a so-called white ally to write a spicy comment (the kind of person who constantly gets offended on behalf of others).

I'm not sure, but I think a black woman would still not write stuff like "strong black woman" or "we blacks", which I think this comic is also making fun of.

I hadn't considered the second one, more interesting imo

The source or their intention doesn't matter. Take their statements at face value, as they stand on their own without your fantasizing about who they are or why they said that.

It doesn't matter, because you can't know. You can only fantasize that you know. Your comment is in fact a false statement on its own merit, since you don't know what you see or not in the comments, you only feel that you see this, so your deductions based on those feelings are a falsity and worthless.

People on Lemmy call me different things every day, and a good 90% of them are totally batshit wrong. For example, I say something pro-2nd amendment, and they claim that I am a Trumper. I say the Bible says something; they insist that I am a Christian. I'm a bot, a spy, a liar, all "judgments" based on fantasy and without value.

All of them believe that they are right and feel it, and they are all wrong.

As a fish, I think you breathe too much air

Well clearly you’re Alanis Morissette

[–] psycotica0@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Isn't that ironic? Don'cha think?

[–] some_kind_of_guy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

A little too ironic

[–] saimen@feddit.org 3 points 1 day ago

Can you feel the love tonight?

[–] Malica@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

It's important to practice this until it becomes second nature. Just practice remembering it not as fact, but as something you feel but can't prove.

As a black woman I am offended by this comic

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

As a strong black woman, I lift you over my head and we run through a meadow.

[–] BooBees@fedinsfw.app 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

As a dude playing a dude playing a strong black woman, y’all need Jesus.

[–] lennybird@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)

As a Jesus Christ, y'all need Allah.

TEN AND TWO JESUS TEN AND TWO

As the whitest guy around I'd like to say "that's fair"

[–] veryblandusername@fedinsfw.app 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Turns out, when you have anonymous posting, anyone can be anyone.

9 times out of 10, if you're engaging someone in political talk, you're talking to someone in China, Russia, or India.

[–] Zombie@feddit.uk 16 points 1 day ago

9 times out of 10, if you're reading an unsourced statistic, it's made up.

[–] puz@piefed.social 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

11 times out of 10, if you guess the other person is not who they claim to be online, you guess wrong!!!

quite well. thanks for asking!

[–] rumimevlevi@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

Show me proof that it happened on lemmy

"The thing is the thing" regardless of who says it or doesn't say it. People used to do it for fun back in the day on the chans so I'm a little immune to it, and I just assume they're paid actors, bots, trolls or simply a very ignorant/confused member of the group they claim to belong to. Still, it's very annoying, although kind of inevitable in anonymous/pseudonymous spaces. 😔

As a white man trapped in a black girls body I really wish that I had seen the chastity belt with barbed hooks... Now I'm stuck

[–] Bonje@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

They could just transition like a normal person and not make it other peoples problem.

[–] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

Yes. Dean Browning was real.
