Thankfully I learned this lesson early in life and I haven’t owned in printer in nearly 20 years.

If it goes well, there’ll be more stool to push in ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

It is called Panzerschreck because it Schreckens ze Panzer

Monosodium Glutamate

American Doritos contain MSG. That would probably do it.

Very insightful.

Nothing concrete, but it’s an important detail to the story that was mentioned in the video, and the article just completely ignored that.

I will give him credit for that.

Yeah that’s certainly possible but it’s still unfair reporting to just leave out that part of her story.

I already said I wasn’t trying to excuse her behavior. It was dumb and unnecessary, and clearly not very helpful.

Ah yes, the other N-word, the one for white people. Really showing off your moral superiority, aren’t you.

Yawn. I’ve heard this so often before it’s lost all impact.

Agreed. Clearly the slur was not helpful, as it escalated the situation instead of defusing it (big surprise, I know).

It’s just disappointing to see grown adults act just as irresponsible as the children they are supposed to care for.

I already said it's not an excuse for her behavior but it is important context for the story. The article makes it seem like she called him a slur without any provocation whatsoever. Whether the allegation is true or not is a different story, but it's definitely leaving out an important detail from the video.

This happened on a public playground, not in a school. As far as I could see from the video, there were no teachers or authority figures in sight.

It's all manufactured outrage if you ask me. They want you to get mad and stay mad so they can tell you who to hate and what to do about it instead of doing something productive with your life.

Without social media and the Internet, none of us would have ever heard about this incident (or others like it), unless it happened to someone we actually know, and our lives would have likely been better for it. Definitely more peaceful.

The guy in the video didn't seem all that interested in his son's behavior, although it's hard to tell if it was because he was more offended about the slur. I don't really see any winners here, they both acted like idiots if you ask me.

I like Witsy, as it offers a lot of system integration that isn't possible with web apps, such as a quick prompt feature and the ability to select text in any app and have the AI act on it. Oh and it's also FOSS.

It's not the words that are hurting you in that case, it's the people with guns who are enforcing them.

Whatever happened to "sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me"?
