These comments are more enjoyable than the greentext itself
Funny enough, the greatest blessing in India simply adds the words “in law”
The community seems split on this one lol. Makes me think that some of the people who subscribed to this community literally don’t know what a greentext is. Which is nothing new; I made this months ago:
Personally, it takes the fun out of creating OC because I like making edgier memes but there’s no community for it here. And even if something does make people laugh and get upvoted, the mods will take it down. (For example, I made a meme about a pregnant alcoholic mother and it got taken down. Like really? We can’t make abortion jokes?) So fuck it, I mainly just repost now. If you can’t beat em join em.
Didn’t subscribe. It was on my front page.
Unlike reddit, there’s no “default subs” on Lemmy. It’s either “all” or “subscribed”. All literally means all communities, so yes, objectionable stuff will show up in your feed. The solution is to block them, then they won’t show in All any more.
It seems like some people who aren’t familiar with greentexts don’t quite get the point of the community. You read the ramblings of Anon like you would watch animals at the zoo, which is different than endorsing everything Anon says.
And you shouldn’t. Anon is usually deranged.
Some bad words and unhealthy opinions are bound to make an appearance. In that case, you’re supposed to be dumbfounded at how Anon thinks/acts, shake your head, and maybe get a guilty chuckle out of it. Like the sidebar says, if you’re getting angry while reading these, you’re probably doing it wrong.
Thank you for your service.
Reading this thread I realized that I had no idea what that word meant, figured it was a particular kind of scam.
wiktionary has suprisingly good info on it https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/pajeet
tl;dr: yes, it’s a slur
A slur for indians pretty sure
At least a couple of Kitboga’s calls have originated in India, but all the characters he plays are as upstanding as they come. Except for this one time at Dave & Buster’s. Kit:
- never wishes for the plague
- always respects all varieties of English
- always respects that not everyone calling everyone else is US-based
- never uses slurs, and Kit’s
- never gonna give you up
Kitboga’s “more Kitboga” channel has gotten me through so many work days. He’s one of the most insanely funny and talented dudes I’ve never seen.
More Kitboga is the one true faith but I didn’t want to scare newcomers away.
That’s fair. Most people would see a 36-hour series of a guy talking to scammers and nope directly out, before learning that the guy is actually nine different people at once basically doing some light psychological torture to some really evil people.
I cannot wait for CrowPro.
If an Arabic speaker is bothering you, simply tell them “Kos Omak”
What does this one mean? And is it pronounced how it’s written???
To answer the other question, roughly (culturally) like “and I’m going to fuck your mom”
Ah yup yup, thank you!
Kos, like coast without the T, Omak like Oh, and Mach like faster than sound.
Thank you :)
The problem with using dehumanising language like this is that it means that someone’s humanity, in your eyes, is contingent on your approval.
It says more about you as a person than it does about the people you criticise.

Yeah are we just ignoring the racial slurs? Bigots gonna be bigot-ing. Usually they’ll do so on 4chan.
there are slurs on 4chan
slurs on greentext? How could this happen??
read the sidebar, nobody cares
I don’t recognize any slurs besides the weirdly warranted black death thing.
4chan made up a new racist name!
OP is exactly as much a bad person as the scammers.
exactly as much.
right.
I wish black death upon your mother.
Thanks. Fuck her.
Not if she’s got the Black Death.
Too bad, you gotta fuck her. It’s in the contract.
Because the insult is too insulting, or because saying it while representing a company is inappropriate?
Because he then proceeded to log onto 4chan and tell a story with racist slurs. I don’t care that he wished the black death on their mothers, good for him, I care that he’s racist while writing this post.
log onto 4chan and tell a story with racist slurs
Are you planning on asking the tides to stop next?
Why is “pajeet” a racist slur?
I am not sealioning here, i genuinely do not know.

racism
It’s not a real Indian name, it’s a made up name from a meme about Indians shitting in the street.
As far as racial slurs go this one is weak as shit.
Your attempt to use spoiler syntax didn’t work. You need a space between the opening three colons and the word “spoiler”.
I had to go look and I’m still not sure I understand, but it seems like it’s derogatory because whoever wrote the greentext is basically calling Indians “street shitters”.
Cherry pick much?
He only said the racist slur 5 times
Yeah, but isn’t the black death thing infinitely worse? You just gonna sit there and decide which bad things are bad enough to matter?
Here’s the thing. This dude is butting heads with those dudes and they’re gonna insult each other with whatever makes the other most mad. Here, that’s slurs and black deaths.
I can agree it’s a little bit racist and wrong to tell the story using that sort of slur, and honestly I kind of think likely the entire story is very racist due to being fake and made up to get a laugh at the expense of Indian people, but if it’s real it seems worse to be knowingly bringing harassment down on your coworkers by intentionally antagonizing people for a laugh when you’re supposed to be doing your job, I think that probably does more actual harm.
