cmplx-xyttmt's blog

Hi all.

Recently I've been seeing a lot of weird blog posts and comments from/regarding this user Sparky_Master_WCH1226.

He claims to be from Botswana (I'm pretty sure he's not and just he's trolling). His behaviour and comments in weird/broken English perpetuate the racist/harmful stereotype that people from Africa are stupid and can't communicate properly.

I don't know what Codeforces' policy is on this kind of behaviour. But as an African, seeing such behaviour makes me pretty uncomfortable. Especially when other users seem to be jumping on the bandwagon.

Maybe I'm just being butthurt and he is just having a bit of harmless fun. What do you think?
