One: this is about UAE, not Saudi.

Two: it uses something a whole ethnicity wears in a meme of negative context, hence hurting the entire ethnicity of people

Three: your tone makes it clear you don't give a fuck about this topic anyways

Four: I don't care about the royals either. Just like when people point out racism of black people in a post about the South African government, it's not because they're in bed with the SA government. This should've been obvious

After checking the news it only mentions that the protests were due to children being stabbed?

I'm not calling people racist. As i explained previously I'm calling using a racial stereotype to not be okay.

A lot of people aren't racist on purpose, but the way they interact or joke about a certain group of people sometimes falls in poor taste.

Instead of people getting defensive, they should just try to understand that these people get racially abused everyday by people not even trying to because it's just so ingrained into their heads that what they say or what they do is normal.

Hell just yesterday I saw a post about middle easterns and one of the replies was something something AK47. There wasn't a single reply against it. People don't give a fuck about these minorities because no one chastises them about racist against them. Actually they just get more stubborn and act racist harder.

It hurts for a lot of people to read the words that i said because for many people, they cannot accept within themselves that some of the things they think or say about other minorities might be hurtful, and might make the people of these minorities feel uncared for or hated against.

I'm only trying to call out people's actions, i never meant to label anyone a racist here; sorry if people felt that way. We all do things that aren't the most savory to other people -- and i think that it's our responsibility to fix that or change that, just like how using the word or stuff like fell out of favour after people used it for a long time. The backlash was huge, but now people warm up to the changes, it just takes time.

It may all seem like a waste of time, but i think it was worth mentioning it in the comment section of this post. People are still clearly unaccepting of this opinion, and that's fine.

But the problem is using the whole ethnicity's cultural wear on a meme about a group of people being bad or evil makes people associate all middle eastern people as bad people.

It's just something our brain does, and that's why it's best not to do it in the first place. I'm sure a lot of people have terrible opinions about certain minorities because their friend or their aunt told them about how one person from that race treated them poorly. People always extrapolate that across the whole race.

See, I agree as well that the government in the post is absolutely awful. But just looking at the picture, it just seems to look like a rather insulting caricature of middle eastern people; even if that was something you didn't do intentionally

Thanks but i don't care. I'm just making my point.

Don't really care about the votes, but surprised to see the people at lemmy are racist as well.

But i guess it was obvious anyways, "making fun of Asians and Arabs and non black minorities isn't racism, it's just a joke!"

It's a fair point. Racist caricatures are racist to people beyond the government. It's not okay

Actually no, tilting doesn't really mean landscape but instead seesawing your phone left.

Rotate is the correct word

What's wrong with usb c power? It's the greatest thing about the MacBook. I plug my s22 with it, and then i plug my MacBook with it. No extra effort, no extra plug.

Also yes their keyboards are good now

I don't get this. Why not support the developers? No one ever donates so this is the next best thing

Let's not. Some people's enjoyment causes a lot of pain for other people, and sometimes i mean literally
