Hey, we should all really stop using racist slang to refer to customozation
Meta post I've decided to make. I enjoyed the unixporn subreddit a lot when I used reddit more. I enjoy customizing my linux de as much as the next nerd.
But you definitely shouldn't use racist slang to refer to the process.
To be clear, I didn't know the origin of the term 'ricing' until fairly recently. I was chattimg with my friend and used it to describe my de setup. They informed me that apparently it's from car customization, and is a pejorative against generally asian men who customize their car to look like a racecar.
After learning this I was sad to realize just how engrained it is in linux de customization culture. I personally have stopped using the term, and I would ask everyone here stop as well.

Cool story bro, stay mad. Even in your little mind of hexbears vs. The world, the hexbears won.
The OP is a hexbear who previously brought this up in the subreddit. Now it's brought up here and now you're mad there's pushback. You can't engage with us on the and now you're resorting to meaningless personal jabs.
Stay mad poo poo pee pee.
You're delusional. My only exposure to hexbear prior to this post was communities on large instances wanting to defederate you. This whole post makes it abundantly clear why that's the case. You're all very clearly a group of losers that banded together for some type of us vs the world bullshit, you even tried to pass off hexbears vs the world as my idea when it's actually yours. It's pathetic.
On the what now? Do you just rage type and submit without making sure your words form coherent thoughts? Try again junior. It's not a personal jab to point out you outed yourself as a racist by your own definition. Almost every comment you lot have made to me has been dodging my original point that there are a lot of you piling on and then attacking me. I guess hypocrisy is lost in your small world eh?
As an aside, do hexbears have an infantilzation fetish? The amount of your users randomly bringing in baby shit is really odd. Oh, what's that? You all lean on tactic that was pivotal to maintaining slavery? But go ahead and tell me again how you're not racist anymore. In case a hexbear mod removes the link, I linked to the wikipedia page on infantilization.
To get this straightened up, you've outed yourself as a racist both by using a term you now claim is racist that you had no idea how it would be used outside of a racist context and your whole lot use the same tactics with people you disagree with that were used to prolong slavery. Got it.
I accept your surrender. Better luck with the virtue signaling next time. Try to stop being racist 👍
