And then people will really wonder why I hate white Amerikans. "Invade this, bomb that, nuke the third", constantly slavering over the next genocide, and they really wonder why 'cracker' is the nicest I've got for them.

Nice stereotype you have there. I'll remind you that even Obama is a war criminal. The problem is America, not some white propensity.

Shut up, cracker; Obama's half-white, only identifies with his Blackness when it's convenient to the party (on some Aubrey Graham timing, no Drizzy), and never even considered putting in the work to killing the white man in his head. How else do you think he was allowed to take the presidency? If he was actually Black in heart and culture, he'd have never been allowed within spitting distance. Funny as shit to me that you'd really invoke the king of code switch like that's a defense for you.

While I'm here, let's address this "the problem is Amerika" bullshit. Do you really think crackers won't still be crackers even when the Empire falls? 'Cause I'm certain they'll be worse. Amerika is only a piece of the problem. The bigger slice is the darkness inside you and yours that has repeatedly jumped out and ruined shit for everyone around them for the past five, six hundred years. Colonialism, genocide, slavery, racketeering, mass incarceration; this is the White legacy you will have to reckon with for the rest of your history.

"No true scotsman..." I get it. So you define white/black in your mind based on someone's culture and politics. Kind of contentious to say the least. Pretty convenient for you that you get to call everyone you disagree with "cracker" though.

It would be arguing semantics to say "half-white" is problematic when by the usual definition half-POC is still POC. So I'll refrain.

Then clearly you're not in the culture; 'cause we don't claim anybody who bears the cracker's water. Like what you're doing right now. I'm sorry, would you rather I called you a minstrel like Obama continues to be instead?

[-] jsomae@lemmy.ml -1 points 6 months ago

I've never been called a minstrel before; go on.

Now that you've explained your unusually flexible view on race in the neighbouring thread, I think what you're saying is that "colonialist yahoos will continue to exist widespread even after the fall," and here we agree.

I expect you'll continue to find that people bicker with you when you go outside of your bubble because you refer to commonly understood concepts in abrasively inscrutable ways.
