hot take, feel free to dunk but holy shit, all the posts from white people being like "let's kill all the white people" is insufferable "i'm one of the good ones!" nonsense and it really should stop (hexbear.net)

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.

also is a genuine sentiment among white people especially on the left

I am so done with how blatantly racist the average whitey seems to be, if they're a lib or at work sometimes it takes a while for the cracker to break out, but other times people will just start rambling their stupid racist opinions at you at the first opportunity; and that's disregarding the fact that up to 50% of them would repeatedly vote for a white supremacist party while consuming the most vile media imaginable

White people hate can still occasionally offend me like when it crosses into gross generalisations about white people being dirty, that just makes me think fuck you, you're a chauvinist yourself, but I see that more on TikTok than on here

You know what's similar though, I say I hate men, I say we should kill all men all the time, I can't stand how stupid and misogynistic everyone is, even the better ones, and like white people, they make everything about themselves when anyone tries to explain their harmful behaviour

But also don't kill me possum-party
