I’ve never heard of this until now, so take it with several grains of salt.

I’d imagine the complaints stem from the fact that she was never in charge of the country.
But then they should have complained when Ben Franklin was announced.
Or maybe they did complain when Ben Franklin was announced, but you can’t really go “look at these bigots hating on Benjamin Franklin,” so that wasn’t shared around as much.
Of course even if that were the case, there would be people who draw the line at Tubman and not Franklin anyways, which could be a case of actual bigotry.
Or maybe a significant subset of the audience wasn’t taught in school that Tubman was that influential, and sees this as blowing a historical figure out of proportion.

What do you have against sea lions? Can you name one documented case of when a sea lion ever did anything that personally affected you in a demonstratably negative way?

My hands are now unspeakably filthy as filthy people following the signs have accumulated a ton of germs on this handle. I get sick.

Do you normally get sick when you touch a bathroom door handle? It’s not like people choose not to wash their hands because there’s a separate handle for it.

Linux machines don’t crash unexpectedly, because if they do, it’s your fault for configuring it wrong and you should have expected it.

“This is your pilot speaking. There’s some turbulence up ahead. I’m gonna try to dodge it. Hold onto something.”

Sir! Excuse me, sir!

They let you dump the water out, keep the bottle, and refill it at the bottle filling stations once you’re inside.

You’re not allowed to bring nail trimmers? I did…

Yeah, me neither. The place looks like it might have been cool when I was a kid, though.

It got reuploaded here, didn’t it?

Human reaction time is ~0.25 seconds.
At 20 mph, you’re going ~29 ft per second, so you go ~7.3 ft before you can react.
At 25 mph, that’s ~37 ft per second, so ~9.2 ft before you can react.

The internet says a good car can break at about 15 f/s^2.
At 29 f/s, that comes out to a stopping distance of ~28 ft.
At 37 f/s, that’s ~46 ft.

So Anne, who’s annoying for some reason, needs a total of ~35 ft to stop just before hitting the child.
Norman needs ~9 ft to start decelerating, so by the time he reaches the 35 ft mark (after ~26 ft of hitting the brakes,) it’s been a total of ~0.98 seconds, and he is going ~26 f/s, which is ~18 miles per hour.

I guess most of the size of a USB drive is just handle, isn’t it? Especially those models where you can retract the plug like that.

Yes. I believe this is what the SCP committee would call a memetic hazard.

Actually I was just being passive aggressive at you for the bit. But it’s totally understandable that you didn’t notice.

I like how you needed to demonstrate that you know what passive aggression is.

Fast food social media. Nice term there.

Anyways, I don’t see why this has to be a matter of high privilege vs. low privilege. There’s definitely a correlation, but depressed rich people and happy poor people aren’t uncommon. Also, not all questions of positivity vs. negativity are in contexts that relate to privilege. It could be about the direction of a media series, for example, which is where I’ve heard it misused.

Actually I would call that aggressive passive, because it’s very upfront and aggressive, but in a not actually very aggressive way.
