Hi. So. This topic has devolved into an Admiral hate thread. Can someone summarise his argument and refute it instead of continuing with whatever's going on here?


Something about why did they feel the need to mention race and gender.

The most reasonable response I saw was:

There's nothing wrong with being proud of your accomplishments within your demographic/group, especially when they're relatively uncommon. Nothing about their twitter post should trigger any sensible person.


Everything else was equelevent, imo, to "no u".

Why should Admiral bother getting a new gimmick when all he does is post devils advocate shit then call others triggered and crying when it always gets bites?

Anyway, fuck those channer losers for even giving enough of a shit to care about this. The girls were using who they were and represent to try to drive up the vote, which is perfectly fine. It's not surprising a bunch of social misfits who masturbate to creep shots and anime have an issue with others success.

Ignore list doesn't work on people who purposely ruin topics and you know it.


The people ruining this topic are you and everyone else who cry whenever I post a comment that you can't refute easily and you don't like. This happens regularly here. There are about a dozen people like you on this board, and you all need to use the ignore list. Everyone would be better off for it.

He's not race trolling. He's whitesplaining.

Someone has to keep the white guy minority propped up.

In all seriousness though, good on them for making a huge invention. It's good that they mention they're of a minority because they can be seen as role models for those like them. It's important if you want to encourage more females of any race to join STEM programs. Show that they're capable and are reqarded for their hard work.

we need YOUR vote! We are the only team from the east coast & female minority group!

I mean...even if they didn't say they were black, this definitely sounds like they're trying to leverage their being female and a minority to garner votes.


Two wrongs don't make a right, but this is clearly racism/sexism on the part of those girls. By giving their gender and race as a reason as to why you should vote for them, they are also saying that other groups being male and/or white is a reason for you to not vote for them. It sounds like their project is very impressive and if it's the best one then they deserve to win regardless of their personal views, but that doesn't change the fact that they're still acting like bigots.

As long as this doesn't influence whether or not they win, I don't see a problem with it. However, we know how humans are, and they can be shit. Things like race and gender can and will influence votes, because we are partial.

It would be awesome if info about the creators of the projects could be witheld until the projects are judged, but... I don't know if that would be possible.

They said they deserve to win based on their invention, not their race. They just happen to be black and are mentioning it because a) maybe it'll garner them some votes, and since they want to win, why not use every advantage possible, and b) maybe they'll be seen as role models by other female child minorities. It's a good thing when you see someone similar to onesself excelling in a field that they're primarily not known for.
