Not that I’m in disagreement (honestly, for memes using old meme templates and not actual art, I just don’t care), but aren’t there a number of people who work hard to touch up memes? There was a whole subreddit for High Quality Memes and lots of people touching up templates, before AI was big in doing this.

Lighter Asians did it a lot in similar ways, with some similar reasoning. Pale “jade skin” and such has definitely been praised in China and Japan, and whitening of the skin with makeup goes back centuries. Negative treatment or “exotic” treatment of dark skinned Asians (especially Pacific Islanders) is kinda common too, and darker skinned westerners find it harder to live there and work there than white westerners.

West Indies too. Like in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.

What’s that? Their National Heroalso has a French name and worked with French revolutionaries? I don’t see how that relates to the conversation…

I work for a managed service provider, and security for our clients is one of our most important goals.

Our CEO accidentally got phished then sent out emails to all our clients. We rolled with it by explaining kinda what you just said.

I’m reading this on my 8" Onn right now … (I normally use a fold but my screen finally failed, and I like having a large screen for reading, be it books, manga/manhwa, or Lemmy). I used to be into flashing a while back but I haven’t bothered recently. I agree it’s a good idea, but it’s low on my current list of stuff I need to get done. (Like moving from Windows to Linux on my main pc).

Edit I do have the Amazon one also, but explaining why I bought the Onn when I already have a Fire HD 8 is just going to make me look worse…
