what about this is a meme?

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

It's an image with text and picture, posted to the internet.

Apparently this was in Detroit in 2020. A similar thing happened a few years earlier in West Seattle. Black guy went into a Wa. Mutual to deposit a check and the bank people thought it "didn't look right" so they called the cops and charged him with check fraud. During the week or so he spent in jail, he lost his job, got evicted from his apartment, and gf broke up with him. He sued the bank and it took a couple years but he won.

[–] Rubanski@discuss.tchncs.de 34 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Wow, the gf is a massive bitch for leaving him during this absolute shit show

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 25 points 6 days ago

Maybe their relationship wasn't on a firm foundation if that broke them up.

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 13 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (2 children)

Evaluating a person based on a single fact about them is the kind of keen, thorough, analytical thinking that gives me faith in democracy!

[–] Smaile@lemmy.ca -4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

He was in jail for a week, go back to reddit if your going to be this snide.

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Wow. We know absolutely nothing about their relationship, like at all, and I'm the snide one.

[–] Smaile@lemmy.ca 1 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

"them is the kind of keen, thorough, analytical thinking that gives me faith in democracy!" This is snide, yes.

Leaving your partner during a false acuusation and not taking his word over it and not waiting for a full conviction show how little she cares for him. Kind of a douchey thing to do.

She didn't wait for proof and your the one complaining about people being quick to judge?

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

I stand by what I said - she couldn't know it was a false accusation at the time. We have no idea what their relationship was like - for all we know she could have seen this as one more in a series of lies he told. I'm not saying that's what happened, I'm saying WE HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA. It makes no sense to characterize a person based on a single bit of third- or fourth-hand information you see somewhere. It's sloppy thinking, and I'm done wasting time with you. Have the rest of this inane argument by yourself.

[–] kent_eh@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 days ago (6 children)

If you found out the person you were dating was a criminal (according to the authorities), would you stick around?

[–] lena@gregtech.eu 11 points 6 days ago

"stealing" from banks is pretty based so yeah

[–] Smaile@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Under an acuusation? No, needs to be proven first before anything.

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 4 points 6 days ago

If they're being accused of defrauding banks... Maybe?

[–] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

At least until a conviction, yes.

[–] whereitsat@lemmy.zip -2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

depends on what it was for lol.

way to out yourself as an unsophisticated, sheltered suburbanite.

child molester or abuser = no way

any rich people crime, like embezzling = no way

drug crimes other than crack, heroin, meth? who cares...

anything else = whatever.

rather date a murderer than a yuppie.

The bank clerk herself was a black woman, and the man is an Air Force veteran… The onion couldn’t make this shit up

Racism is everywhere not just in America, it is just hotter issue on USA, because maybe leaders does fight it and it upsets racists. In other countries (especially more homogenous) it is often accepted by everyone as normal.

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 days ago

It's only racism if it comes from the USA region of North America. Otherwise, it's just sparkling discrimination.

[–] Jhex@lemmy.world -1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

tell yourself whatever you need to so feel good about yourself...

racism is wrong and we all should strive to fight it

[–] takeda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 6 days ago (2 children)

We absolutely should, but don't tell me that Europeans or Asians aren't racist.

Those messages I see from tankies while China and Russia are very racist. Russia even one of the biggest Nazi concentrations. Even right now putin is especially recruiting non ethnic Russians from Asia regions to send to Ukraine and can afford losing so many people because ethnic Russians didn't care about them in face they hate them.

[–] Jhex@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

but don’t tell me that Europeans or Asians aren’t racist.

I never, at any point, insinuated racism was uniquely American... if anything, it sounds like you are bringing others in to dilute the message

Yes, I also think all of this you claim it's true. However, I don't recall China pretending to spread freedom in other countries nor Russia pretending to be the beacon of morality around the world. The USA has taken (and enjoyed) those titles heavily, it is only fair we point out how hypocritical it is
