Good thing that they implemented an unbreakable lie detector checking out the veracity of 4chan posts, otherwise you could think it is not genuine.
And gay.

Yep. A white teenage white boy who thinks being edgy is badass.
While internalized racism is real, this is borderline implausible.
Fabrications? From anon? Yeah, sure, buddy
White suburban kid who has never seen a fancy apartment pool before.
When I read brownies I thought of the food. The cake.
Was wondering why Anon was so unhappy about brownies at first lol.
I thought bruh was gonna accidentally get high and have a good time smh
Probably a good thing, every time I've looked at 4chan I've seen a lot of people stuck in some very dumb patterns of thought.
Oh a bake sale!
Oh...
I decided it must mean poop.
Yeah I was confused at that too. First thought food, nah won't be that. Girl guiding group perhaps? Probably not, and can't see why it would matter. What about poops floating in the water or stains on benches? That could fit. Oh, its racism. Of course.
Oh... Oh no. You're right. I just wanted brownies.
Lmao OP just described a public pool. I've never been to one that wasn't like this and I grew up in a town that's like 90% white. Turns out race doesn't have anything to do with it
Love to know what are supposed to be the "pool vibes" OP is talking about, because in my experience that's exactly the pool vibes I know.
Huh, I see almost no black people at my local pool. Then again, my town is like 90% white as well. But even in the town where I grew up that was a bit more diverse, black people just didn't go to the local pool, probably because you had to pay to get in and black people (in general and from experience) don't seem to like to swim. Even at my in-laws apartment complex which has a pool, there's almost nobody there, ever, and when we go, it's always just me. People seem to hang out more at the entrance to the complex than inside the complex.
My town (in the South) chose to fill the public pool with cement rather than be forced to allow black residents to use it. For many decades, we didn't have a public pool at all and it's only been fairly recently that a new one was opened. I'm not surprised that black Americans have a reportedly lower rate of swimming proficiency!
I point out this shameful bit of our town history often, because the place has grown tremendously in the last 20 years and become more diverse, and folks here don't appreciate how bad it was within living memory and why we need to keep pushing.
"I point out this shameful bit of our town history often..."
People who are "anti-woke" often say stuff like "they're teaching kids to be ashamed of themselves for what their ancestors did", and I think they don't understand how healing and healthy it is to call out shameful parts of history. For me, acknowledging shameful parts of history is how I distance myself from those things, by subtextually saying "this is no longer the case, AND ALSO we intend to keep pushing forward".
That's exactly my angle. It was bad more recently than you think, and it still needs to get better because we all like our neighbors.
Wow, that's awful.
Ours is getting more diverse too, and my town has a really affordable recreation center ($5/visit or $15-30 per month, depending on single vs couple vs family). We have pretty good diversity when we go, and we bring some diversity ourselves. It's just that there isn't much diversity to go around in my town.
Growing up, swimming just wasn't on the list of priorities for many minorities. They tended to recreate with others in their minority group, so black kids would play basketball, baseball, or football, Hispanics would play soccer or baseball, etc. My black and Asian friends would play video games, but that's just my weird nerdy friend group.
Maybe the culture comes from racism though, idk, but it certainly seems that way in your area. I think it has more to do with role models, there are tons of black athletes in football, basketball, and baseball, but not so many in swimming.
$15 a month is a lot of money for poor people. Minimum wage at 40 hours a week is only $1160 a month. If rent is $700 a month (and that's cheaper than any apartment I've seen lately that only leaves $460 for everything else. Sure the rec center is nice but is it worth spending 3-6% of your post-housing expenses on?

I was talking to a black guy from the US one day at a sailing club. He said that a lot of his ancestors had had a bad experience the first time they’d been on a boat; so water based activities weren’t that popular... I thought about it for a second or two and then we both started laughing. History is brutal.

I'm not American, what am I missing here?
OP spends most of their time on 4chan, which super racist and white-supremacist, seeing black people as the source of all that is wrong with the world.
OP forgets he's black, and thus "part of the problem".
But in reality, this is all fake. Except 4chan really is super fucking racist.
Huh. I thought he was the only black guy there and rest were white trailer trash.
I've scrolled through 4chan a couple times to find greentext but all I found was racist stuff. I'm wondering if they actually think like that or if it's just a funny racist persona they're trying to give off.
it started as a farce, but those who actually thought that way didn't understand it was a joke on them, and soon it was just people who unironically believed this way. If you act like something stupid, even in a manner to make fun of them, you will attract them. If you don't cut that shit out like a malignant tumor, it won't be long until that tumor takes over.
There's also an element of if you keep acting a certain way it starts to infect how you think as seen above. Some of those people essentially trained themselves to be massive racists
oh yes def true. I have watched people I know have memes, jokes, etc on 4chan and other online spaces slowly twist them into racist right wingers over the course of 5ish years
a couple have since been deprogramming, but a couple are like flat-earther level lost

Its not ironic they're actually racist.
A brownie or broonie (Scots), also known as a brùnaidh or gruagach (Scottish Gaelic), is a household spirit or hobgoblin from Scottish folklore that is said to come out at night while the owners of the house are asleep and perform various chores and farming tasks. The human owners of the house must leave a bowl of milk or cream or some other offering for the brownie, usually by the hearth. Brownies are described as easily offended and will leave their homes forever if they feel they have been insulted or in any way taken advantage of. Brownies are characteristically mischievous and are often said to punish or pull pranks on lazy servants. If angered, they are sometimes said to turn malicious, like boggarts.
I fucking HATE when i go down to the indoor pool and it's full of fucking kelpies. Can we PLEASE get an anti-kelpie movement started here.
