saying something this edgy does not absolve you of bigotry

edit: for anyone stumbling into the drama, i probably should have elaborated on this post. I am not saying you can't make fun of white people not being able to eat spicy food or anything, but at some point it becomes self-flagellating. to quote comrade RedQuestionAsker:

It's good to challenge white supremacy in all of its incarnations at all time. It's certainly good to refuse to be proud to be white considering what the concept of whiteness is.

It's another thing to performatively hate yourself in a cocktail of millennial self-deprecation and liberal white guilt. It's not revolutionary, and it's probably not good for you.

that is all. comrades just know i dont hate any of you. i'm not trying to start a slapfight. i just saw this as weird performative behavior and wanted to call it out.

      Unhousing people over the partner they bring home is probably not the energy I'd personally choose to bring to hexbear.net

          Why would you want your daughter to live with someone who was so bad you kicked her out of the house over it?

                  They didn't say you were black, they said you took the vile shit 4chan says regarding black people, changed it to say "white" instead, then posted it. And you haven't offered a critique of interracial relationships, you've just declared that you'd shun your daughter if she dared to violate your wishes regarding who she becomes romantically involved with. "Betraying her people" is an extremely strong position to take regarding the human you've cared for and watched grow and learn for the past 20-odd years.

                      I could say that it'd be fucked up for them to do that to me after everything I did to raise them.

                      That's flirting with being abuser talk. I'm going to chalk it up to you not actually having kids in reality, but if you do become a parent, please try to avoid talking to your kids like that, and try to do some introspection on your ideas of what children and parents owe each other.

                          To an observer, I would be indistinguishable from cis het, but finding oneself can be a fuck, so let's call me a work in progress trending towards "not strongly identifying with or performing" my AGAB or another gender. Parent to plural children.

                          If they grow up to become bigots, it is my obligation to work to change that fact. The best chance I have to enact such change is to remain a part of their lives as much as they'll allow. Above all else, however, I have an obligation to look out for their well-being. It may break my heart to be around them, but I brought them into this world, and so long as I'm around they will have a roof and a meal should they require it.

                          For this analogy to work, you'd have to replace "became a massive bigot towards LGBTQ+ people" with "dated a straight person," or are you claiming that those two things are equivalent?

                              You're the one who brought up LGBTQ+ as a point of comparison to begin with, so I guess by your own standards, either you don't know enough to be speaking in this conversation, or you're just arguing in bad faith.

                              Which is about what I'd expect from a day-old account that wants to socially and economically punish POC for dating white people. Funny enough, that's also what white supremacists want. Not "what white supremacists want but with the races reversed," but literally, exactly what white supremacists want.

      I think the question is what the white people on this site are supposed to do if we take the stance that they are unable to be comrades. I am aware this might just be me saying this because I am a anti-cracker-aktion myself.
