That was my nickname in my hood growing up as one of only a handful of visually "white" kids (though I'm red). I hated it but I didn't put up with any shit with extreme measures so it stuck.
To be fair, they only called him that cause of the laudable effort he put into his ghost costume every Halloween. seems odd they kept mistaking him for a wizard though, sometimes even a dragon 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
I'm not sure what you think scientific research is, but this study was not taxpayer-funded. And no, I'm not gonna jerk myself off to my own opinions without any real evidence, that's exactly why all the brainlets on far-left subs can keep saying without any evidence at all that communism works, for example.
I agree when it comes to actual science but finding out that white people like being called the cool word by the cool people isn’t a fucking surprise to anyone.
Yeah nobody is surprised, but that's not the point of any sociological study really; their purpose isn't to tell us what we don't know, it's to quantify existing trends, at least that's the case for most studies involving sociology.
If you support free speech, you must support people pinging other users. It's completely legal speech. If you won't defend pinging as free speech because you or someone else finds it disgusting, then no speech that you or anyone else views as disgusting is safe.
>if it is in fact on shaky legal ground it's reasonable to not want to be the case that establishes it as illegal.
It's not, The reddit admins are straight up lying to the ignorant (like yourself) to justify their prejudice. Pinging being protected speech has long since been estabilished, as it has undeniable artistic merit. The only time it's been included under any obscenity laws is when someone is being charged with possession of harassment, so the state can slap them with more charges. The courts have been very careful to not charge anyone for pinging, because they'd get their asses fucking annihilated by a higher court due to the firm precedence of pinging being completely legal speech. /r/Drama had nothing to worry about, this guy was just making shit up to fool people into thinking his censoring wasn't entirely personally motivated.

It's a massive waste of time and money but it is sort of interesting to see their results tbh

You mean you couldn't have answered that question yourself, with just your brain and no taxpayer money?
