Naah, you see. There is a different point of view that you aren’t considering. If you cannot correctly identify racism, all you’re doing is making noise. Which is perfect, if you’d rather quibble over bullshit and ban episodes of Community, while systemic racism is everywhere in the US. Americans have no idea how much US culture is centered around “race”. Everything is viewed through that lens… so, don’t be so quick to dismiss people who might be just a taaaad tired of (mostly) American virtue signaling of what is, and isn’t racism.

Also, of course it didn’t bother anyone, since it had fuck all to do with racism. That’s kinda my point. Racism is a very real thing, and a very real problem. So people who want to make a fuss about these things can go fuck off and see if they can figure out what racism actually is.

PS: I’m also not bothered in the slightest if I name the branch main or master. I’m not sure if you’ll believe that. What I do take offense is the failure to identify that this in fact, has nothing to do with racism, so how about focus on, you know… the problems?

PPS: Feel free to downvote me and move on. I’m annoyed that I brought it up.

Sure. But, people still know what the words mean, right? You don’t get offended by all the racism in Uncle Tom’s cabin, and want to ban the book, right? You wouldn’t get offended if someone cosplayed as a black elf, would you?

Or, maybe you would. People are, after all, fucking morons. Myself included. I don’t really care if I have to call a branch main or master, just so that’s clear. But it’s 100% a fucking stupid reason for the change, and anyone who thinks that matters in any way, I’ll think less of, and probably avoid in social settings.
