A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Except the whole thing where the people we call Mexican today lived in South West America 200 years ago...
So it really is a terrible example to "Asian"...
Because there is no country called "Asia".
There is a continent called Asia, as well as one called Africa and another called Europe.
People from those places are called African, and European respectively.
Not to mention places like the middle east...
