Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. 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!

My girlfriend’s brother has this tendency to say insanely racist things, probably without recognising them as such at all. One example would be him telling my girlfriend that he wouldn’t want an Afghan in the family either, relating to a coworker of his having found himself with an Afghan son in law, much to that coworker’s displeasure. The fact that Afghan isn’t exactly and ethnicity and that I am of one of the more prominent ethnicities of Afghanistan probably eluded him.
