Re the earing post: a white European loser made the poll "did you get your ears pierced when you were a baby?" To which the only two options were (paraphrased here, but very close to:) "yes (what the fuck)" or "no (your parents were sane)". A bunch of nonwhite users mentioned that this mindset is weird to have since piercing your baby's ears can be done for cultural or religious etc reasons & is very popular with nonwhite cultures, & that it was kinda racially charged & weird to call anyone who has their baby's ears pierced "insane".

They doubled down & started acting weird including calling themselves a "gringo" ("assigned gringo by tumblr" they said, bc someone asked if they were a white American) even though nobody called them a gringo, still calling people "insane" & not at all addressing the racist implications of that, & just in general acting like their experience is universal & all that. It's a mess

Man I wish I continued not knowing this/jk
