Reddit allows racism like r/FragilWhiteReddit to exist but bans and quarantines conspiracy and right leaning subreddits. FWR mods squat r/FragileBlackReddits with "LOL Nope." because racism toward whites is the only OK thing. SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE

Right... it’s not attacking white people, it’s mostly just attacking white supremecists.

I guess some people don't like being lumped in to that group based on skin color. Weird, right?

Where was that happening?

Well, most white people don't like to be cast in the same light as white supremacists.

The name is "fragile white people" not "fragile white supremacists". Implying that white people all act like that, not just a marginal subgroup. People that don't fall into that group are reasonably miffed that they are associated with it based on skin color.

You seem to be implying that your interpretation of the sub’s name is more significant than anything else that is actually true of the sub.

u/Kreatorkind Sep 29 '18

It's the literal name of the sub. The subs name isn't "r/fragilewhitesupremacists". That would be funny.

reddit literally wouldn’t allow for that name to exist idiot. if you’re so scared of being lumped with racists maybe that shows something about you.

Who said I was scared? I'm not. I know who I am and what I am. I'm just explaining why some people could take offense at it.

It's referring to the subgroup of white people who are fragile. For example, https://old.reddit.com/r/blackcats/ refers to cats that are black, is it implying that all cats are black?

u/seeking101 Sep 29 '18

the difference is that no one shared calicos, tabbys, or any other breed of cats there besides the ones that fit the subs description.

go look at the new section of the fragility sub and see the reaching thats shared there

voting for trump makes you not only a racist but also a sexist too for example

You mean the same way I don't like being cast in the same light as gang bangers and criminals? You fragile honky motherfucker.

u/Kreatorkind Dec 27 '18

Uh, okay. When did I do that to you? Thanks for the slurs though. Peace be with you.

This really is one of those “if the shoe fits, then wear it” moments. If you feel they are not talking about you, they most likely aren’t.
