I saw the reaction toward that whole "Latin America is a part of the West" struggle sesh. It really feels like a lot of white comrades often speak over POC voices. I've felt this too when speaking about how the sort of 'Fuck God' rhetoric is so damaging when trying to agitate within Hispanic spaces. The standard hex space is fairly...white I guess? It feels it too.
I agree with everything @Pluto said. Especially regarding the start contrast between online/offline, the MLs. None of the MLs where I'm at speak English and none of the DemSocs speak Spanish. It kind of leads to one voice dominating the other. nonEnglish posting is a great idea!
anti religious stuff is a a hard line to walk because we also dont want to invalidate people religious trauma and as someone who feels like their fathers countries culture is being corrupted by evangelicalism i have quite a few frustrations myself.
Agreed. I'm in a similar position, I just find the way it's handled by white comrades to be not productive. Thank you for this post tho, it's great seeing everyone's responses.
hmm perhaps folks can post with non-english as well instead of only exclusively one or the other? I'm thinking of hand-sign translators. I don't mind putting in the non-english languge and english side-by-side, someone might even help me with my language learning!
You'll see, right now, I will give you Chinese language characters. Ah, I do not know much of the Chinese language. I want to read a book. I'm tired. I'm want to go to sleep.
