TL;DR – Black students at Emory University kindly request that the anonymous messaging app, Yik Yak be banned on campus, due to incidents of students anonymously making racist comments
Man, who would’ve guessed that if people were given the shroud of anonymity on the internet, they might just say some critical things! Who would’ve also guessed that in spite of the idealistic world full of equality for all, that there still exists, racism? Who knew??
Not that I’m condoning the behavior in question here, but honestly these students must be new, to like, modern society. I’m also not saying that they should sit around and take it, when racists are capitalizing on the veil of anonymity and saying some racist garbage, but the harsh reality is that shit is most certainly nothing new.
