Clearly you've never had an apple orchard. Yes a couple of bad apples spoil the bunch!

I don't hate Canadians "mate", I just think people sometimes ignore the fact there's racism up there too.
Sure, except for the posts where I explicitly pointed out instances of it here, just the other day and on previous occasions.

I don't know how to say this in a non-jerk way but I wasn't talking to you so I'm not sure if you felt like it was directed at you?

Just messing with you #notallCanadians
 
I read a name recently that I hadn't thought of in a long time: Lizzie Velasquez.

She's the woman famously referred to as "the ugliest woman in the world" in 2006 on YouTube after her high school senior pictures got picked up and went viral as a laughing stock about how ugly she was. I was something like 16 when I first saw her pictures and even then I was really appalled at how low people on the internet were. This wasn't someone who sought out attention. It was just someone whose photos got picked up by someone else and then got circulated to infinity by internet bottom dwellers.

What can be done to discourage that kind of inhumanity on the internet by persons acting in anonymity? The internet is probably less cruel and slightly less pathetic than it was even a decade ago, but it's still pretty bad.


Oh God, I just googled her and wish I hadn't. I try not to be shallow, but good god ...... On the plus side, appears she became a motivational speaker.
 
I hate them, my man. I hate them so so much.
There's a great deal to be said here, and i've spoken on this issue before, but it's particularly grating right for whatever reason. I tend to avoid trying to explain stuff on the internet when my dander is up; that's a recipe for gettin trolled (not by you). I've avoided the hell out of that current mascots thread, for example. Posting in that cesspool would just get me rage pwnt.
Here's a post from a while back of me breakin some stuff down for @Social Distance Warrior

I can speak more specifically about football mascots, if you'd like, but they all are a part of the same problem tbh.
That was a good post.

Yeah, she has a serious congenital disorder that prevents her from having body fat. She was only sixteen when her pictures started circulating around message boards making fun of her appearance and was seventeen when she was dubbed world's ugliest woman.

Her story ended up being, so far, a pleasant one, but think of the millions of people who experience similar cruelty on a smaller scale. I imagine the suicide rate for those persons is sky high.
