    Which are prominently white and low income. Meth is a white people drug. Hopefully people see this and then get the joke and the irony

    Edit: LOL. Even the moderators didn’t get the irony

      “DEI” is used by bigots as a stand in for “people who aren’t white”. So your “sort of” sarcasm comes across as racist, because no one, bigots or otherwise, means white folk when they’re talking about the importance of diversity.

      Ironic racism is still racism, and your intentions don’t matter, because it reads like racism. You’re lucky you didn’t get banned tbh, and the only reason I didn’t do that is because I couldn’t be sure if you were racist, or just made a fucked up comment without realising how it would be interpreted.
