it seems clear that there are less POC people on hexbear then there was before. what would you propose, and what do you think the issues are if any. i will be refraining from sharing my opinion for now to encourage more ideas.

white comrades are allowed to post emotes to boost this thread so more people can see it.

    Damn thank god if you weren't going to post this I was. Asian from Asia, although I keep that to myself partly so I don't dox myself and partly because it brings up more headaches than it's worth sometimes.

    I don't need white performative self-flagellation, as amusing as it is to see, I need y'all white people to take a step back and evaluate when you inevitably get confronted with your white privilege, and to really think about your cultural blindspots and take that into account before you formulate your responses. But 9/10 time y'all reflexively start LARPing as Paul Atreides from Dune, and don't realize that you're riding the White SSupremacy brainworms over the opinions of people who have lived experiences well outside your realms of expertise and who maybe don't have the exact language/aren't terminally online enough to articulate those experiences: like who the fuck expects normal people to be fluent in Maoist Standard English?

    If you can't do that, can y'all at least get to work on the Revolution and do both of us a favour?
