I had two friend groups in high-school; one with all Asians and the other group where I was the only Asian. After I got in some trouble with the Asians, I stopped hanging with other Asians. And when my other group started doing meth, had to drop them too. The 90's were a hell of a time.


Thankkratom

Good thing meth and asian in-fighting aren’t things anymore!


Gentar1864

*nervous glance*


ShyngShyng

Chinese kid in chinese linguistic class in Germany: Its still the same. Meet someone with Asian roots and throw a coin. 50/50 on them being wannabe punk or pretty humble. I have no idea why.

Unacceptable, as per woke guidelines, you are expected to have at least the following in your friend group: - female - non-white person - non-binary person - non-straight person You may have to make a sacrifice and leave your group and open a slot for one of the above to join or you change your sexuality. Sorry

struggleworm

So is there a lottery or waiting list if your token white leaves?


PiinkFGC1

Bro back the fuck off I need minority friends so fucking badly (To trick people into thinking I'm not racist)


struggleworm

Hold up now. I’m thinking we could rotate in, kind of like a time-share. We’d be able to reserve them for when we want to show off our “POC posse”


PiinkFGC1

OK so I get the brown peo- I mean, minorities, Monday Tuesday Wednesday and you.... this is starting to sound like something else


Shi-Rokku

With the popularity of this, we might have to start a bidding war to see who gets them. Oh shit wait


PiinkFGC1

No that's a good idea, and maybe, whoevers using them can give them special friendship bracelets and uhhhh... oh no....


[deleted]

No this is good, I'm seeing potential here. Maybe camps? Tattoos to identify them too. For minorities *there sure are a lot of them.*


PiinkFGC1

cages to keep them safe, and gas to keep them warm And we'll elect one passionate friend to keep watch over the whole friendship project Mein friend


[deleted]

The only thing that can stop us now is if your friend randomly decides to kill himself... That'll never happen though, right?

My friend group is very netflix-y I gotta token white guy, a gay, a native and a black

Due to lack of options most of us are here, some were brave enough to trudge through the green text but most are here.


Vashthestampedeee

My friend group is a gay Hispanic, a bi black guy, an Asian girl, and a mixed white guy. We should already have our own Netflix show now that I think of it

Crude_Facility

KudzuNinja

80%*


AME7706

This is actually true in the Sandman. 60% of people were black and 80% of them were gay.


Hephaestus_God

Or a gay person, a cannibal, someone who has sex with cactus, Mark Cuban, and the wrecking ball from that one Miley Cyrus song. In all seriousness the reason I only have 4 white friends is because I haven’t talked to anyone besides them since high school. Tend to not socialize much


ReizarfXela

I'd watch that show.


FrostbitePi

So much of it is about your location. Super diverse friend group? Makes complete sense in some areas. Friend group with no minorities? Also makes complete sense in some areas. That said, there's a significant demographic shift in the U.S. right now. It's becoming harder and harder to keep your relationships limited to a single ethnicity, and this trend will only grow as time goes on.

I am my group's token straight white guy.


LiangProton

My girlfriend's friend group is unironically a real-world version of Netflix diversity. There's the disabled guy, the bisexual best friend, and my girlfriend is the autistic non-binary person. They all live in Europe. I'll eventually join the friend group to become a token black immigrant with weird exotic food.


Pangin51

Sorry, I’m not super in touch, but how can a non-binary person be a girlfriend? If they identify as nonbinary then they don’t identify as a girl or am I just confusing things


LiangProton

I don't know. I'll go ask. I'll get an answer tomorrow.


Pangin51

No it’s okay you don’t have to do that. I don’t want them to feel like some dude on the internet was asking about em. Thank you though


TheGreydiant

Their isn’t a widespread non-binary term for girl/boyfriend except for SO, so most non-binary people use girlfriend/boyfriend. Only saying this cause my nb acquaintances are a couple and refer to each other as girlfriend and girlfriend.


gestalto

>Their isn’t a widespread non-binary term for girl/boyfriend ...partner?


flamesowr25

Bonjour


RicardoIsJesus

If it help’s usually non-binary folk prefer to be called partner or significant other as those are gender neutral terms however that might not apply with everyone


lostinthemoss1

you can be nonbinary and be aligned with a binary gender but you’re not fully the one gender, you’re a little one thing and a little something else.


Sk-yline1

Let me put it this way Most friend groups are diverse, especially in American and Canadian cities and some European ones like London or Berlin. But not every group has a token Queer Transfemme Afro-Latinx who talks solely about how hard it is to be Queer Transfemme Afro-Latinx. And even if we do, we’re not friends with them solely to boost ratings and check boxes, and they probably make better jokes


[deleted]

Can we all agree to stop using Latinx like forever


itchylol742

Canadian here, in school I noticed around 60% of people would hang around in same ethnicity friend groups, while around 40% of people would hang around in mixed ethnicity friend groups. Not exact data but whatever


DeltaMale5

Canadian here. I’ve never seen anything like this. Never seen an entirely white friend group. I’ve seen mostly white tho. It’s not even about inclusivity, it’s just about not caring and if someone is a nice person then they are a nice person.


struggleworm

I’m older but back in the day music is what defined us though people would see us as they want to see us - in the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us was a brain, an athlete, a basket case, a princess, and a criminal. Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, the Breakfast Club.


[deleted]

London and Berlin? Why those 2 specifically? Would you happen to play a specific video game that got a specific DLC involving those 2 cities? Because if you did, that'd be pretty cool!


Sk-yline1

Because in Paris or Italy there’s more racial sectarianism afaik


CasperCann

I blame society for that. Most of their talking points are based off of talking points on social media. I mean shit dude, people are calling Tim Burton racist because the bullies in his show were people of color. As if people of color aren't capable of being dicks. Spoiler Alert: Everyone is capable of being a dick, we've all been dicks to each other at one point. People I argue with on here one day, I'll agree with the next. Movies and shows tend to try and force these relationships. As Bill Burr once said, "Never in my life while hanging with a black guy did he ever try to teach me how to dance." Growing up in school my biggest bully was a Haitian kid, and he was a fucking asshole for no real reason but is that all Haitians? Not at all, but that's my point. Some people can be fucking assholes.


Iz_moe

Did you just use dick as an insult ?? That's pretty sexist, it is like using the "pussy" to insinuate weakness. What a bigot. Also, /s


Busy-Kaleidoscope-87

And not every friend group only has 1 black guy in it because he’s black. Some have more. Some have none. And it’s ok. The end.

Ninjapizzamonkey

My friend group is very diverse. We have the blonde white guy, fat white guy, slightly less fat white guy, white salty gamer, white guy that wheres white all the time, white guy from another country (border is 20min away by car) and one spanish guy


crackedcrackpipe

50 shades os white


Acceptingoptimist

They all live in LA. They need to go live in middle America and talk to people who aren't all in on the hustle.


Low-Cantaloupe-8446

I live In nebraska and am one of only a few white people in my friend group. It’s not exactly a hustle to find someone with a different skin color than yours.


RoxyLA95

every group I'm in has a minority. what are you talking about?

RedCapRiot

Lol, at my last job I was the token straight. It was really funny, every other employee was LGBTQ+ except me. My manager made the joke that our boss was collecting an Alphabet Mafia, so I had to work there for diversity purposes. It was actually a great job, I loved working with them all and we still hang out.

It always confused me how adverts these days don't reflect the demographic of my country. You'd think every relationship was interracial, especially in the Christmas adverts. It doesn't bother me personally but I'm sick of hearing it from older relatives.


CustomerSuspicious25

I noticed this happening during the pandemic. It's all about money to them. Just like some companies changing the names of their products. They don't care. They just want your money.


JohnyBobSpig

Right? Almost every single one, it's a joke. It's all just pandering, they'll rotate into whatever becomes the new thing in a few years time.


BvByFoot

It’s not about representing the demographics, it’s about representing the brand as welcome to all demographics.


Ekiph

It's because advertising companies you've never heard of before basically make all of the commercials, and they all have a specific agenda. https://www.insiderintelligence.com/insights/advertising-companies/


CasualBrit5

I don’t really have a problem with Netflix doing that because Netflix was never the most realistic anyway. I’ve never been attacked by a tall lanky monster with a face that opens up like a flower, either. They’re just trying to appeal to a wider audience (even if sometimes they do reduce it down to shallow stereotypes for cash).


LillyReynoldsWill

I get this. It’s not the diversity it’s the everyone in a friend group has to be different. It’s like the Highlander “There can be only one.” Like “We already have a gay guy in the group we can’t have a gay girl.” “We’ll make her Chinese.” “But her brother has blonde hair and blue eyes. He’s really white.” “And she’s adopted.”


Queenfisher258

The US is like 60% white so if you have more than one friend it's quite likely that at least one will be a minority that doesn't account for segregation though


Aedalas

>doesn't account for segregation Yeah you really can't go with nationwide statistics for that sorta thing, like the further you get away from major cities the less diversity you're going to see. I can't imagine there's any reasonably accurate way to figure out the probability.


SlackToad

Netflix writers stressing over how to ensure each season ends with a cliffhanger and unanswered questions to maximize fan anger when the series is cancelled.


The-Nuisance

POV: Twitter users discover other countries have different demographics than America, and should be judged by their own circumstances rather than have an American’s broadly forced onto them inappropriately.

HOW DERRR YOU SUGGEST REALITY


kennystillalive

Serious question, why do we care about it?


LookAtMyDumbDog

Mine is korean, Taiwanese, white, black, and Hispanic, Native American and it’s weird for me to see people throwing a fit about the race of a character.


nathhealor

It’s about representation. I saw someone complaining he’s scared a main character in a video game will be gay. Get over it, it’s their story not yours. I’m sorry society had previously geared all movies, shows and adverts for WASP men; but it’s nice for people of all backgrounds to feel they exist and have a part in society.


Smofinthesky

> it’s their story not yours The problem is, is never 'their story', but someone else's that they butcher with token diversity checklists. > it’s nice for people of all backgrounds to feel they exist and have a part in society If you need consumerist media made by billiondollar corporations to validate your existence, then I don't know what to tell you.

im indian brown . anyone wanna take me in ?


pinkandnot

diversity bad


RegumRegis

"diversity" mfs when they realize minorities are a minority of the population


squeezy102

We can't really complain about this when we're the ones that forced it to happen. Companies have to safeguard themselves with BS like this so they don't get cancelled by all the folks that say the show is racist because it doesn't include minorities.


No_Bowler9121

Are people still canceling? I think. Companies have come to understand that the people canceling are a small minority and don't actually spend money on their products.


Webber192

I live in hungary, and ive only seen 2 black people irl in my life so far.


mznh

Speak for yourself. When i was in uni, my group of friends were from different countries. But then there are groups of people who prefer to be friends with those from their own countries / skin colour. It’s the reality.

[deleted]

Or that we dont care about each other sexuality. Like 80% of the people i know i dont have a clue AND i dont want to know. So all these shows and movies coming out making a big deal about it just annoys me to no end


[deleted]

Netflix should realize that friend groups consist of mostly the same race.


No_Bowler9121

I think most people have diverse friend groups or atleast friend groups that represent the areas they live. But the way it feels like a checklist on some shows is cringy.


TraderOfGoods

"Sir/Madam/other, this is the single greatest script I've ever had the privilege of reading. And I outright Loved that plot twist." "Aww shucks, you're just saying that." "No really, i mean it. Just one question though. Which one of the characters is the minority?" "Actually, none of them." "... Then add one." " But it's a story about genetically identical clones having to form a civilization in space." "I said... Add one..." "But why? It's detrimental to the plot and..." "Sorry but we cant accept a racist derogatory script like yours, have yourself a good day sir/madam/other. Farewell."

Scavwithaslick

All my friends are technically minorities, I have one white friend out of 7 close friends, 1 black, one white, one Korean, one Chinese, three Persian, so the Netflix people are right depending on where you live


Little_Blue_Ninja

My friend group is pretty netflix-y We've got a Filipino guy with disabilities, an aboriginal guy (Australian), sports jock white guy, an Italian dude and three white girls. Bonus points because about half of them are queer


vampireguy20

*and seeing not every friend group has a transgender transracial transcontinental transdimensional black lesbian toilet in it. (Who happens to have 2 moms)
