Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I can't put it into words but the whole genre of black men replacing historical figures of memes feels wrong to me. "wouldn't it be silly if Lenin was black🀣🀣" is basically the entire joke.

Correct me if im wrong

I can't help but notice there was no option for "italian" disgost

Genuine question. I'm Spanish and I feel white AF, would I be considered "Hispanic" on the other side of the pond?

White's a construct. Italians and Greeks weren't white 50 years ago, but to answer your question, depends who you ask

I never understood the point of this. There are so many great people of color who were also great revolutionaries. Why not just post one of them instead?
