THEY HAVE TO ADD BS LIKE “Go woke go broke”

Cool, just so long as we are all on the same page and make sure only right-leaning euphemisms are a no-no. Calling another group/person bigots is a great shield to put up to make sure you cannot be questioned.

@VTR

BUT NOOOO, they cannot stop there… THEY HAVE TO ADD BS LIKE “Go woke go broke” or “Go fash no cash” or other political/social distinction to throw in their political/social ideology and punch down at those they don’t agree with.

When anyone willfully disregards the entirety of a statement just to play victim, that is intentionally disruptive to the SAS community and a spread of misinformation, neither of which are allowed.

Pointing out appropriate use of the term “bigot” is apolitical.

Correct. No bigotry is allowed on SAS. Period. We are an INCLUSIVE community of e-commerce businesses.

Some groups of people have had challenges that other groups have not, and SAS supports those groups as they work for equality and equity–and no, those are not dirty words, and basic human rights are not political OR up for debate.

If SAS members perceive any of the above as “political” simply because they disagree, then that is a “you problem”, not an SAS problem.

However, it becomes an SAS problem when members bring prejudices and divisive culture war rhetoric here. We are an INCLUSIVE community of e-commerce businesses.

We have much more in common than not.

Calm down, support our inclusive community, and focus on our shared issues, challenges, grievances, concerns, and victories. Don’t be disruptive, and avoid politics. Adhere to SAS Community Expectations and support each other. And if those asks are intolerable to you, feel free to move on if you need to.

No, No, No, I don’t want to tolerate and include the e-commerce Sellers who are drop shipping Ayr Nuke shoes, from Alibaba after watching a get rich selling on Amazon TikTok.

I’m not that well.

Luckily for you, those aren’t businesses; they are scams.

Boy howdy, do some of y’all have tunnel-vision, looking for reasons to feel like political victims, when you are not.

The above statements were in no way references to any SCOTUS decisions. But if that’s all you see, that is a you problem: You can’t get past your own egos.

Get help. Not here.
