Because I recently had to crumple up a cracKKKa who wandered into this community, uhh, let me be clear:

EM POC ONLY

Thank you. With that aside, welcome to this week's featured EM POC thread.

How are all my comrades doing?

    I've been mistaken for somoan, sihk when I had a beard and now more and more as indigenous people asking me if I'm from so and so rez. Don't know why most people don't id me as mexican, no one's ever been mean or anything just curious once I tell them my legal name and start speaking spanish they go ah

      I'm mixed British and Filipino so I'm kind if ambiguous-looking. I've had people ask if I'm Latino, Inuit, Hawaiin, Japanese, Italian, and black...like everything except Filipino lol

        You beat me there lol, I think a lot of it might just be like a roshach test where people see what they wanna see. Part of me wants to fuck around with different dialects just to mess with people but that requires listening to myself and that's cringe no beuno

          I live in the US but my European ancestry is all from Britain just coincidentally. I don't want to be too specific because I would dox myself lol

            Well, then either the cracker are dumb or you just might not look the part (you do know how Filipinos usually look like, right)

            Funny, you know, one of my younger siblings, I'll tell ye hwat, looks more South-Asian than Filipina, to the point some marketing agency wanted her to participate in an advertisement, because of her ethnic ambiguity
