No I don't...because I actually read the article and other related ones.
As I was reviewing the Snowflake thread I came across momopi?s post. So it contradicts Morekas statement about the Philippines. (where his parents are from, but not him)
I?m glad that you made that statement. To give a better picture of the Philippines and is not as bad as Morekas previously stated. For the record, I previously gave a favorable review of the Philippines.
So we can't make posts pointing out how nonsensical articles/issues are on other sites? That is the point of this thread. It's not to be racist but to call out how some people overreact and call things racist/homophobic/sexist/[insert hot button adjective here]. Do you see the irony?
What about all those posts that BTB would post about Asians? Or about women? Again, I think you are using a filter here because you have an issue with morekaos.
And again, your assumption that the guys I play basketball with are black is probably more questionable.
1. I already addressed the posts by btb. (wearing a mask, birth houses, massage places) Is that offensive?
2. Playing basketball with brothers. (It can mean anything. There are a lot of people that say, ?What up bro!? You took it the wrong way.) Like I previously stated to you. If you can?t say it or do it. Then don?t say it at all.
3. Over react? Do you think hammering the same topic over ten times is over the top?
This is what make people sick and don?t want to be associated with TI. Do you think I will back down?
Your quotes are there for everyone to see. Why would you say that saying "blackface" would be offensive to them if you were not implying "brother=black"? You even said it multiple times before I called you out on it and then you went to the whole "brother=something else" excuse.
Again, you seem to be the only one who is claiming morekaos is racist, the fact that no other members are backing you up on this one should indicate something.

So you think this abstract is worth further investigation?...its absurd, pointless and wasteful. Like almost all the little snowflake, butt hurt, meaningless, nag, superficial, self victimization issues brought up by them. So much so as to be funny. You need to find your sense of irony and humor.
Abstract
Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) air pollution exposure is the largest environmental health risk factor in the United States. Here, we link PM2.5 exposure to the human activities responsible for PM2.5 pollution. We use these results to explore ?pollution inequity?: the difference between the environmental health damage caused by a racial?ethnic group and the damage that group experiences. We show that, in the United States, PM2.5 exposure is disproportionately caused by consumption of goods and services mainly by the non-Hispanic white majority, but disproportionately inhaled by black and Hispanic minorities. On average, non-Hispanic whites experience a ?pollution advantage?: They experience ?17% less air pollution exposure than is caused by their consumption. Blacks and Hispanics on average bear a ?pollution burden? of 56% and 63% excess exposure, respectively, relative to the exposure caused by their consumption. The total disparity is caused as much by how much people consume as by how much pollution they breathe. Differences in the types of goods and services consumed by each group are less important. PM2.5 exposures declined ?50% during 2002?2015 for all three racial?ethnic groups, but pollution inequity has remained high.

This is both a comment on what a wonderful world we live in and what a terrible job we have done raising these snowflakes when losing your job or paying your bills ranks lower than their phone battery dying or slow wifi on a stress scale. Comedy!

Snowflake comedy gold.
The Weird World of Vegan YouTube Stars Is Imploding
Last Sunday, a five-second video clip of vegan YouTuber Yovana Mendoza single-handedly brought down the luminous 28-year-old?s entire career. In it, you can see the raw food advocate, who goes by the name ?Rawvana,? smiling at a restaurant in Bali as she prepares to tuck into her meal. But in an instant, the health guru?s face changes, as she realizes her friend?s camera is trained on her plate. She moves to cover it, but it?s too late. Internet sleuths watching the 10-minute vlog later would quickly deduce what Mendoza was trying to hide: a piece of fish.
?I felt like someone had died,? Mendoza told The Daily Beast. ?It was one of the worst days of my life.?
In addition to showing how many ways you can repurpose the word ?fish,? the incident brought another revelation to the surface: The vegan YouTube community is crumbling.

I've asked this before but is there any other member who thinks morekaos is being racist in this thread?
