Remember, EM POC only!
Vibes are off. That's really all I can say about my energy right now.
How are all of the rest of the EM POC comrades?

So I made a mistake in engaging in a post about Islam - again - and I told myself before to not engage but I just had to because of the “suspicious” responses in that thread and now I have been accused of occidentalism - a literal reverse racism argument. Not that they’ll even be aware of the term but I didn’t expect people to read the books and articles I listed at the start of my argument (who reads anyways, am I right?)
And now I wonder why I stopped my break from posting on this site in the first place.
Maybe you all were right that this site can not be (re)educated. I apologize - I have not interacted enough with white people to know they were like this.
Going to take a long break.
Right there with you comrade
I lost it after seeing an mf say she pretends to be white
Ugh. On one hand, I get it. "Passing" can be used as a method of survival if you're in a place where PoC are targets of violence. On the other, I feel like you need to show solidarity with people who don't pass and should shut that shit down when you see it. I dunno. Maybe I'm spoiled.
passing is a privilege and if you choose to indulge in it simply because you can, sorry but you ARE white for all intents and purposes
that was the one that made me even feel the need to engage
