    you’re coming off as being desperate to get offended here. I didn’t give any thought to this username and I didn’t realize it is apparently racist until our interaction. I just mixed two words for a username that weren’t obviously bad.

      I’m desperate to get offended because you’re using a term that is wildly culturally insensitive? You sound even more racist now. A person who was not racist would never keep a username like this. I highly doubt that in the two years you’ve had this account no one on lemmy has pointed this out to you.

        “A person who was not racist would never keep a username like this”

        I was ignorant and it’s not obvious this is racist as I am not american so fuck me i guess?

        “I highly doubt that in the two years you have had this account no one on lemmy has pointed this out to you”

        To my knowledge this is the first time some has said that this is racist. I will try to go back and find if someone mentioned this as racist. People have talked to me assuming I am american but that was expected.
