I think it just got popular fast and also it doesn't have meat on it which triggers some people. Also likely some places charge a retarded amount for it.

But yes of course, avocado on a nice piece of toast is super delicious and a good breakfast.

The reason that people get upset about avocado on toast has nothing to do with its taste, but rather the toxic culture associated with it.
One of many food trends of the 2010s, Avocado toast has recently experienced a rise in popularity with youth. Due to its status as vegan, it is associated with a healthy lifestyle.
Individuals who follow such lifestyle trends also tend to document their restaurant experiences on social media sites such as instagram, snapchat, and facebook. This raises the food dish to a "meme status" of sorts and strengthens its association with wealth.
As a result, the price of the dish increases. With prices of avocado soaring alongside its association with toxic culture growing, the negative feeling associated with the dish is reinforced.

Oh please, someone would have to do something pretty bad to me for me to hate them.

I don't hate niggers, jews, or mudslimes, I just have certain expectations based on history, statistics, personal encounters, and what I've read online, Of course every individual deserves to be treated individually, and I've met several lovely and very intelligent black people. But if you asked me if I wanted to live for an extended period of time in a majority black area, I'd say no, fuck that, I'd rather not get shot and robbed.

When assessing the possible future behavior of groups I use generalizations about those groups.
When assessing the possible future behavior of a specific individual, I use my knowledge of that specific individual.

[Anonymous No.13029821]

>>13029811
Nothing, it all depends on how accurate your generalization needs to be, and that depends on what you're using it for.

For example, stereotypes are generalizations that have been repeated by people over and over again that they became a well known trope. That alone makes them more accurate than other generalizations. Other generalizations are less well known, but can still hold true, but only in a specific area, or in the past, but not now.

Generalizations have different quality. They are essentially a tool for simplifying infinitely complex reality into manageable chunks. You can simplify less or more, but you have to simplify.

Not who you are replying to, but the problem of niggers in africa isn't lack of education. It's lack of high IQ individuals in their societies, which in turn means their cultures are utter trash, and low iq human beings raised in a trash culture result in trash countries.

No amount of education is going to fix their average low IQ, nor will it fix their lack of culture and values. Things like that take generation to develop, and require at least a few percent of the population to be reasonably intelligent and not to be burned alive for transgressing some retarded tribal law.
