Comment on ‘Manfluencers’ are filming themselves trying to pick up women using smart glasses
poopkins@lemmy.world 1 day agoThat’s an excellent analogy. Zooming out from that scenario, should we welcome the notion of being afraid of being afraid of somebody based on their skin color, because there’s an inherent prejudice of them being dangerous? If so, should we be encouraging each other to vocalize these kinds of prejudices? And by extension, is it acceptable to draw sweeping conclusions about a group of people based on their generic traits?

If you’re black and presently in confederate country, maybe a little?
The sweeping conclusion, by the way, is “it seems risky,” and I know you know that it is.
