Fun fact! “Mongoloid” is an old timey way of talking about down’s syndrome as well as a very old timey way of talking about races, and we don’t use it anymore because it’s literally equating congitive impairment with racial characteristics.
Anyone using it today as pejorative is saying something worse than the R-slur, because it’s not only ableist, it’s racist too!
Oh boy I love learning.
I’m so glad we get to hear from our neighbours in the .ml instance still for some reason.
2&3 are pretty cool, I’m not a furry but the anthropomorphic comics on !furry_irl@pawb.social are still very much enjoyable. Unix socks on the other hand are something that I need to obtain sooner rather than later.
Five bad things about Lemmy. You won’t believe the last one.
As a Hexbear user, your comment is really racist and ableist, erase that shit and apologise

Apologies to all tribalistic instance mongoloids reading this.
I hear lemmy.ml admins are really against sinophobia. I wonder if they will act on such blatantly anti-asian slurs being used 🤔
