it’s sneaky racism, the implication being, ‘black people are rude and inconsiderate’
which is, of course, a common racist stereotype.
blackpeopletwitter on reddit is about 100% dedicated to furthering that…
….
nazis have been strategizing ways to spread their hate online since before computers had pictures on them.

I thought the point is white people are silly and do unnecessary stuff

Well either way racism is bad chat

but the divider is so the person behind you can start unloading their cart onto the conveyer, and the cashier won’t mix up your groceries with theirs…

everyone does unnecessary and silly things….

Why specifically black people? Doesn't it just mean every other people doesn't use it

But there's a lot of other peoples than white and black, why would white people stereotypically doing something be targeting specifically black people, in your opinion?

the style it’s written in and the stereotype it’s perpetuating.

Seems pretty normal writing to me? What stereotype?
