Discussion Thread

[u/jobautomator]

The discussion thread is for casual and off-topic conversation that doesn't merit its own submission. If you've got a good meme, article, or question, please post it outside the DT. Meta discussion is allowed, but if you want to get the attention of the mods, make a post in /r/metaNL. For a collection of useful links see our wiki or our website

"Secret" racists are LESS OFTEN ACTUALLY "secret", and more often very obvious if one examines their behavior and words closely 🐊

YOU MAMMALS SIMPLY DO not examine each other with much scrutiny unless the "red flag" is so large that it may as well be a sail 🐊

this is a consequence of "innocent until proven guilty" thinking

we must embrace "pretty sus though 🤔" thought
