I didnt say you were a "white" european, I said: "IF you are....", there is nothing racist on what I said. You are using a common pattern the far right uses here in the US, ala Carlson Tucker "What is white supremacy anyway?". I agree there is racism everywhere , between all races, religions, etc... But , we were talking about the US, and the differences between regions regarding racism, etc. I was also exposing my personal experience. Also , the argument of "there is no such a thing as racism" is itself racist, regardless where you are from and how you look. Disregarding other peoples unnecessary hardship and the problems they have to deal with, just because they look different or come from a different place, is truly immoral.
As a latino, I can tell you what type of racism I have faced in the east coast, for example:
- While chatting on the phone with a friend in Spanish, I get people screaming at me: "Speak English! This is America, go back to your country!!. ......"
- "Chinga tu madre!! Mexican!" (I'm not Mexican)
- "We dont speak Spanish here, sorry..." even tho I can communicate perfectly well in English.
and many more, in my personal experience, the west coast is way better regarding racism, I have Pakistani friends who have had a pretty rough time living in Oklahoma.
I agree that racism is being using as a political weapon, and all of that, but is truly more common in some places.
If you are a white European, you will have a hard time seeing racism, compared with people who are not white.
this reads as wishful thinking , in which universe is safari 3rd technologically speaking? what technology does Chrome or Firefox have that Safari doesn't? Safari performance in MacOS is better than Chrome and Firefox. Can you provide any data?
I closed my Facebook account years ago, but is not Facebook alone, Youtube keeps recommending me far right extremist channels, I'm a POC immigrant, is that just bad luck? I'm the only one?. Is f*cking cruel at this point.
Yeah, I feel no sympathy for him, he was one of the 9-6-6 work hours system supporters, I'm not sorry he can't get away over there with things billionaires get away with , over here in the US. His end is not sad, nor fair. A fair end would be he loosing everything and the people that worked their ass off to make his wealth possible getting compensated.
I wonder who in a foreign country, let's say Japan for example, will be checking on a tourist, to see if he/she/x is doing work while on a coffee shop, or just watching youtube. How can another country prove i was working over there, and not writing code for an open source project or something similar? I'm honestly curious. Is there any mechanism for that?
Yeah, thats the reason I wont move from the west coast, unless it becomes unbearable. Most people here would downvote you, just for suggesting human interactions are necessary, but yes, in places like SV, Seattle, NY, you get to meet smart and interesting people, learn a lot about the industry, life in general, I also get how some folks would love to make 300K in the middle of nowhere, paying none to little rent, and enjoy being the richest person in a small town, but I think there is a reason why most of the population is concentrated in a few cities.
Yes , I strongly recommend you Florida , central and north Florida have the best spots to live in. Sell your place in the west coast and move to Florida, is amazing. https://youtu.be/HeGbDRbodNQ
