We do, but they are simply not the focus. There’s still a very heavy patriotic rhetoric
Because it’s funny (to them) and because no one will fight back. The fact that there are no black people here means that you’re free to say whatever you want.
I’d give some examples, but honestly it feels wrong to even quote it, so I’ll pass.
I’ll just add that it isn’t even “agressive racism” (where they hate them or something), just ignorance and lack of reflection.
I’ll start by saying that I didn’t pay too much attention during history classes, but it probably just puts me closer to the average person on that topic.
The way I remember history classes (I’m from Poland), is that they were heavily focused on our country (excluding sections where we talked about ancient history, obviously) and on how our country fought to keep existing. The wars it had with its neighbors, the fights over land, etc. And Poland didn’t really participate in colonialism, so it was just mentioned that other countries went to Africa and got slaves, but that’s mostly it. And we knew that slavery is bad. But there wasn’t too much effort on elaborating on this topic. Partially because that realization is still trickling in.
I’m simplifying a lot, but I think that’s mostly what you’d carry out of those lessons. Maybe there was a week where we talked about the civil war in America, but that’s very little compared to the rest of the topics, so it doesn’t stay with you.
If you consider the history of Poland, it kind of makes sense. There was a lot of struggle to not be eradicated, to preserve our culture, etc. And that’s reflected in what we learn in school.
And I’m not defending the way it is now. I personally don’t like how “selfish” the point of view in those classes is. But I am sharing my experiences and thoughts, to add some context.
History in school focuses on European history, which doesn’t really have much racism in it (it has other not-fun stuff). And until fairly recently, especially for eastern Europe, there weren’t that many people of color, so you wouldn’t really encounter racism as an issue. I mean, your parents would say some wild stereotype about black people, but no one would bat an eye, so you wouldn’t know that it’s bad. With internet and general globalization it’s changing now, but there’s still a long way to go

Ask Experienced Devs@programming.dev•Do you think the DRAM shortages will result in more of a focus on software optimization?English
28·11 days agoMaybe something like this will happen for some critical proprietary software, at Cloudflare etc. But I wouldn’t expect any benefits for software ran on your personal machine, unless the shortage goes on for 10 years.
RAM is still cheaper than developers, at least until some point

1·17 days agoLooks pretty much like my first attempts lol
I do miss that carefree goofing around. Now I need to design, plan, optimize, etc. I know how to do stuff (mostly), so there less exploration and discovery and more of just work.
But at least stuff I make now is better hah (or at least I hope so)
Yeah, don’t even get me started on this thing called “Lemmy”
