Yes it does (Infinity)

Some of the largest slave owners before the civil war were not only black, but they were former slaves
Yeah, that's what I said. And what you said is still largely irrelevant. Do you just not understand what the word legacy means? You bolded it as if that means something. I guess in your mind you're making a point? lmao

Consider this picture and, please, try your best to not get too excited about it:

This man was murdered for being falsely accused of trying to harm a white woman (she later admitted that this wasn't true). What I would like you to notice though is the smiling little girl behind him. Do you think she would be smiling if it were a puppy being hung? She is smiling here because she was taught that the lives of blacks are worth less than even animals.

Some people like to imagine that slavery was hundreds of years ago so what's the big deal, why do we even have to bring it up anymore? This picture is from 1935. That little girl is someone's grandmother or great grandmother today. Racism is most often taught and unfortunately the legacy and lasting detrimental effects of slavery can not just be simply forgotten so soon.

No, I'm not trying to say that you "gotta be extra nicies forever," but I am trying to say that you should probably try to be more empathetic and realize slavery wasn't actually that long ago and yes, it wouldn't hurt for you to keep this context in mind when interacting with black people today.
Yeah this is totally why DMO was shut down. Haven't seen any Hitler memes yet but I feel like someone gonna do it to prove why a guild of erudites on an emulated EQ server shouldn't be allowed.

Not even sure wtf I'm reading here, I joined P99 cause I played EQ back in the day when I was a little kid and wanted to play it now that I have a clue in my head, and nowadays when I'm trying to revisit my nostalgia, there's dudes actually spending time on here trying to quantify why somebody is racist as if it's some sort of fucking e-sport.

It's cringe to the highest degree, I hope to god these queers never go look at the archived necro boards back in the day, some of the stuff I saw on there when my dad posted flew over my head, but man did they post worst shit back then, as opposed to now, and it wasn't even offensive, it was just stupid and funny.
