    Just because angels, gods, gremlins and Eskimos are imaginary doesn’t mean that people can’t be afraid of them.

      Racism has always been about inequality and dehumanizing people. It was always a constructed or mythological fixed identity.

      But that’s not funny. That’s just sad.

      It’s not funny like calling them orcs.

      But that comment is 85% upvoted so clearly I’m wrong and that can’t be racism. Hey, maybe I have brain bleeds from long covid. Honestly that would be preferable to this shit. “Russians aren’t really hur hur hur”. Fucking racist morons.

      You must be trolling because Eskimos aren’t imaginary. I use their tax software every year when I go to file my return.
