And because I had to try it...
There's no excuse for that shit. I could see some 5 foot tall woman being nervous of a big black guy. It's not alright, but society isn't perfect and I'm not going to pretend it is.
But when the question is clearly and blatantly racist and Google assumes the victim is the problem? That's every sort of fucked up.
Problem solved. Now I need to finally change my email address. I've definitely put that off too long.
Yeah idk about this one, as others have stated it happens with "white guy" and just "guy," I'm sure it's just because it's trained on social media/sensationalist journalism in the form of articles, and the trend at large on said social/sensationalist media is to be deathly afraid of men by default.
It doesn't care that most violence by men is on other men, that the violent crime rate has been falling since 1993, because it is trained on reactionary online comments that themselves are fueled by the sensationalist articles and also consuming those same articles itself, it was never trained on "truth" because nobody cares about it, it's out there but drowned out. And what's more, since being default afraid of men is ok, it will never be guardrailed like antisemitism or non-gender specific racism has been, which is the only reason it "isn't" racist now, it was and they told it not to be, but that'll never happen with what basically amounts to misandry as long as misandry is acceptable in society.
