What is this sub exactly? I still don't get what "white people Twitter" is supposed to be. Someone please explain
I believe it comes from an old joke trend from years ago on reddit when people were naming their subs ____ people _____. "White People Twitter", "Old People Facebook", "Young People YouTube"
This was one of the few that stuck around, but it ultimately evolved to just a place for Twitter posts (beyond the joke title, people didn't truly want it to seem race exclusive, because that would be weird)
I think r/BlackPeopleTwitter was created first. Then r/WhitePeopleTwitter was created as a parody, but then kind of became a catch all for tweets in general.
So tyical black people stuff on r/blackPeopleTwitter? Black humor, etc?
I don't even know if it's a specific type of humor. Literally the top few posts are just tweets but black people, but not related to race at all. A few examples:
This is what happens to be 48 hours after eating pizza
So... what's the kleenex box for?
