  • But two probelms could arise:

    1. Those who are aware of this ranking change but still choose to hide posts they disagree with, will then upvote posts they dislike
    2. Those unaware but honest will continue to vote the old way, ending up boosting bad posts and vice versa
  • Yeah, the complicated nature is that Chinese people weren't offended, and white people were.

    Yes, it was a kimono. A qinao is a type of kimono. As it says in the article.

    I'm not lying, and I haven't made any claims other than that this incident was a false alarm. Don't confuse me for the other user.

    For the record, my view is that cultural appropriation is a real and serious issue, but some people are quick to jump the gun with such accusations, out of a misplaced (and potentially racist) paternalistic need to "defend" marginalised people, as if they themselves can't call people out, especially when said people are saying such a thing isn't even offensive, just like the OP.

    See? That's the complicated part. I can actually describe it. You didn't even try. Just waved at the word as if it made your point for you.

  • No, you can't, and don't try and gaslight me about it.

    You're either being serious or you're not. You can't change your intent based on the response.

    And FYI, critical thinking is exactly what enables me to see through this, taking me from "maybe this guy's just clueless" to "nah just a troll".
