What is this sub exactly? I still don't get what "white people Twitter" is supposed to be. Someone please explain

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 22 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I believe it comes from an old joke trend from years ago on reddit when people were naming their subs ____ people _____. "White People Twitter", "Old People Facebook", "Young People YouTube"

This was one of the few that stuck around, but it ultimately evolved to just a place for Twitter posts (beyond the joke title, people didn't truly want it to seem race exclusive, because that would be weird)

I think r/BlackPeopleTwitter was created first. Then r/WhitePeopleTwitter was created as a parody, but then kind of became a catch all for tweets in general.

So tyical black people stuff on r/blackPeopleTwitter? Black humor, etc?

[-] jballs@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 months ago

I don't even know if it's a specific type of humor. Literally the top few posts are just tweets but black people, but not related to race at all. A few examples:
