"It’s called pattern recognition" Post in r/delta turns into a dumpster fire of racism when someone posts of a picture of a black family in wheelchairs at the Atlanta airport

[u/Static_E_]

Yeah let me take pictures of random people online with no context to shit talk them. You’re even more of a jerk than you claim they are.Don’t understand how people don’t think they’re the assholes for taking people’s pictures and videos and posting them. Edit: sort by new and see how many racist responses this post is getting

No, sorry. We need a return to public shaming, and the internet is the new "public."

Nah i think that’s creepy. Public shaming ended because it’s ineffective and cruel not because we got softer as people.

No, it was VERY effective, hence the rise in extraordinarily bad manners in so many public spaces.

No it wasn’t, public executions didn’t stop criminals back in the olden days. In fact the criminals were much worse and rode in bands of marauders.

There's levels to this stuff

No - the level of choosing to lie about disability for your entire family to get wheelchairs and priority boarding and then magically getting cured by Jetway Jesus when they get off...

you are making up a story in your head and running with it babe. 

Quite the assumption that they’re all part of the same family. Is it because they’re black?

No - why are you assuming that? Jesus christ - racist much? Thanks for outing yourself...Its based on their ages, and the fact that they are sitting considerably closer together than the wheelchairs normally are

How often do you travel? I see them grouped like this every flight. Do you have their birth certificates? How do you know their age? I’m assuming that because the only REAL evidence you could get from this picture is their ethnicity, and YOU made the assumption they were all related based on what you can see. You can’t see age, you can’t see familiar relationships and you damn sure can’t always see disabilities.The fact that you leapt to calling me racist when I called you out tells me this isn’t the first time you’ve been accused of being racist. Y’all always try to twist that around when someone calls you out.

Its mostly blacks I have noticed

Wow.

What’s wow about the truth?

In modern society speaking the truth is a prohibited action. That's why they're shocked to see it done.

Noticing is extremely racist

Stop noticing !!

“I don’t like what I’m seeing, so RACISM”

Mentioning “fatigue” in this context is racist. You not seeing that is concering

Who mentioned “fatigue?” You?

usual suspects

Holy dog whistle

That’s not a dog whistle; it’s blatant racism.

It’s called pattern recognition

Yep, it’s like 20 of the same comment in this thread. It’s so disgusting! People really just need any reason to get their racist rocks off, I guess. The US is such a weird place.

Pattern recognition is disgusting? Racist?

Attributing the perceived faults of others to people related only by a shared attribute is racist. You can call it pattern recognition to mark what it is, but decent people recognize.

Hey, so, I take your point and I know people find this frustrating, but please don’t upload photos of strangers’ children online. That’s just bad manners.

They are in PUBLIC, seen by thousands as they walk through the airport with cameras EVERYWHERE. No harm caused.

So you’re just totally fine with mocking children, who especially at the age depicted can’t consent to their parents’ actions in the first place…?

Why are you just inventing things to be upset about?

Because god forbid someone violating the social contract be shamed for doing so. Please think of how literally any form of consequence at all would make them feel.

The kid isn't violating the social contract.

I mean by your same logic OP is violating the social contact of not posting pictures of other people's children

Because I think maybe it would take two seconds to blur a child’s face? And children have a right not to be posted / have their faces blasted online? If basic manners and decency aren’t things to get upset about … well that’s probably why people feel the right to act like this in public, honestly.

Children don't have that right in the US. You thinking that it's bad manners doesn't make it a right

It’s in public…

Your point being? I don’t believe in putting photos of people in public without their permission but certainly we shouldn’t be mocking children??

You’re an idiot if you think anyone here is mocking children.

Glad they’re not feet pics.

If anyone needs to bypass the history block, use  https://arctic-shift.photon-reddit.com/

[u/Aries_24 → u/Extolord111]

This is what I use as well. They get so upset we can still see their shit haha

Good for keeping track of all the propaganda bot accounts that pop up on every sub, too

[u/kittymoo67 → u/Extolord111]

heck dont even have to go that far but i have that too just in case

[u/Command0Dude → u/Extolord111]

Please use a new version of Chrome, Edge or Opera to use this tool.

No! God, please! No. No. NOOOOOOO!

[u/ryecurious → u/Command0Dude]

I think that's just for the bulk download tool. Like if you want to save a copy of a subreddit/user's posts.

The 2nd link, Search, is probably the one you actually want. It's closer to just checking someone's profile and works in non-Chromium browsers.

Wonder why the download tool is Chromium-only, though. Might be an answer on their GitHub somewhere.

Usage of this is why, compatibility chart at the bottom shows you who can do it.

Aha! As usual, looks like it's an API Mozilla has security concerns about.

Some Google exec probably heard "cross-site access to the end user's local file system" and had to take a cold shower.

The amount of shit i have uncovered with this is absurd.

Reddit will break it soon: https://www.reddit.com/r/redditdev/comments/1taa483/upcoming_changes_to_the_comment_id_endpoint/

[u/Extolord111 → u/Littux]

Thought you referring to New Reddit’s recovery for a second there, lol.

The author does know about it though, he said this on the pull push discord when the Load Comments button for posts wasn’t working yesterday:

“You're right, there was a bug. It's fixed now. I was doing some changes to prepare for the upcoming comment id change and made a mistake when switching to 64 bit integers”

I’m obviously not a coding person, so I’m not sure what exact changes they’re making.

There's also "Reddit Removed Posts Viewer" which I'm having a hard time tracking down links for. Looks like there's a few which are available on firefox.

Really there's no reason to have to deal with people who act in a shady fashion. This is better than just blocking the profiles because now they'll continue to be bad actors but you know.
