What is "white person" about this? Working until you die is shit, and pretty much everybody does it.
I think it's just tweet screenshots at this point. They're pointlessly segregated by race from the Reddit days, but even on Reddit it seemed they had forgotten why race was specified.
Wait, why IS race specified? I always was confused by that.
I think blackpeopletwitter came first on reddit and was a pretty big sub because if minorities don't have their own space, their voices aren't heard amongst the majority.
Or maybe whitepeopletwitter came first
That's the shitty part of everyone just duplicating reddit subs. If Lemmy does take off, a decade from now someone is going to have to explain shit from 20 years ago from another website.
It would have been better off to grow organically on its own. But kids wanted to be mods to have all the power but not do any work. So every sub on reddit exists on a every big lemmy instance
BPT was first.
I agree with everything you said. The majority of communities on Lemmy are just reddit clones without any "heart" to them. Same names, completely different rules on what can be posted. They're husks of subreddits filled with the most generic shit
The majority of communities on Lemmy are just reddit clones without any "heart" to them.
This would imply that reddit still has heart, which it doesn't.
Lemmy is still finding itself. For the majority here, leaving reddit was the whole thing that brought them here. It's going to take time to form its own identity that's less of a shadow of reddit and more of a demonstration of the new communities.
What I'm saying is that Lemmy communities feel like they took the empty shell of a Porsche and shoved whatever engine they could find in it but still call it a Porsche.
Reddit may be soulless but the original subs weren't. The names got copied over without any thought and they're run like the wild west
To make fun of things stereotypically Angelo Saxon
What, like being shot in the eye or losing to the Normans?
The original sub was made because r/blackpeopletwitter only allowed tweets from black people. There is no reason for it to exist here especially with the waning popularity of Twitter...but lemmy full of useless copycat communities.

Jennifer Down is actually a pretty good one.

White as a down feather.
I'm going to guess it's because most people have much more stressful lives and are too busy to be be bored (busy trying to figure out how to provide for themselves and their family, trying to get out of debt, etc). Also, most people do not have office jobs where they can drink coffee at a desk and listen to podcasts all day; most people have manual labor jobs and office workers are considered to be higher up the socio-economic ladder. So, the post is here to make fun of privileged white people who have a good life complaining about mundane things.
Yes, it's mildly racist. There are, of course, many white people with low-paying jobs, and many POC with good paying jobs; but there is some statistical truth in the medians.
Most other races this is a no duh dipshit moment. For the white race there is a larger demographic that think they don't have to work.
Sounds like you've been brainwashed into just accepted the capitalist bullshit drivel we've been force fed our whole lives.
Yikes
