When will people just learn to stay off social media?

Internet black face? Hahaha! WTF is that? ☻

Trek is filled with a bunch of SJW's and the reaction to his Twitter post is BS. Besides I think their bikes suck and screwed a bunch of bike shops several years ago by requiring they exclusively sell only Trek. Won't set foot in the locat Trek shop and wouldn't let the mechanics there work and a stroller let alone my bike. Hopefully, he will learn how poisonous and evil Twitter is.

So now using the wrong emoji is akin to "blackface".....

I mean, I've been using the yellow ones....is that racist to asians?.....am I only limited to pasty white emojis?

What if my 'race identity' is differently than my 'biological race'?....which emojis do i use?

Technically I'm 0.5% African....which is more African than elizabeth warren is native american......can I use emojis to represent my true blackness?

Simple solution. Find an American team that loves our way of life.

Im kind of pink...

I was shopping in a store in one of Bostons neighborhoods pretty much 100 percent black and a young boy looked at me and he said "Man, you so red! You so red, you purple!"

I took no offense.

I suppose this is social media... I'm talking the big 3, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. Regardless of how much this site has grown, it isn't main stream.

This world is so past redemption.

Generally though we are accessing it through one of the Masters of the Universe.

We are creating a negative social score.

At least its with like minded people

You're the enemy, you know that right? There's a thread in here about a quote from twitters ex CEO, and you're probably the target demographic. But sure, keep lining these people's pockets just to hold on to a feeling of "I won't be bullied"... continuing to go to school isn't how you stand up to these bullies. Cutting them off from your business and not giving them a voice is how you do it. Too many conservatives have had a hand in giving these assholes a voice, who never deserved one in the first place. That includes the regular people too. How many times has "the Twitter mob" been in a headline? How do you think the loud minority got so loud over the last decade?

Thats the concerning part IMO. For older fucks maybe not as big of concern. But for the younger generations...thats a different story. IMO, it will only trend more and more to exactly that, social credit...our commies learning from the other commies.

So the question is, do you teach kids to play the game, or to resist and risk their future?

Our "hidden" commies built the system for the Professing Commies.

Capitalism Yeah!..............until we can trap the rest of you into Communist slavery.
