white people can't help but fantasize about genocide even when it's to themselves

but on a serious note I think for some users it crosses into suicidal ideation and that makes me very uncomfortable

let's kill the structures of white supremacy so that "white" isn't really a thing

Personally, I would like to see some of that energy being used for more productive anti-racist actions

But then again, this a website for little goofy people sometimes and that means that people will be little and goofy sometimes

They hated him because he spoke the truth

On a non edgy note, being white but having class consciousness and being anti racist in cracker town USA sucks. The shit white people say to you that they think is acceptable is insane. It's like the power and privilege just poisons their souls. Whiteness as an institution/class, whatever it is, legit needs to be destroyed.

As a poc I hate seeing these jokes because I worry that the poster thinks this is what poc actually want and are “aligning” in some misguided way with us, which just feeds into the “hur hur what if whites were a minority they would be treated just as badly as today’s minorities” nonsense from the chuds

Did that paragraph make any sense I just woke up

I agree, it's incredibly self serving and you're not fooling anybody

I bet many other POC feel the same as me but I rarely even complain about white people here because I know it's like 90% white so it's just an audience that could never empathize with what I'm saying

If telling people to stop posting worked, we wouldn't be here

They're not particularly valuable posts

If hexbears wanna express their frustrations with racism or white supremacy I think it's fair to give them a platform to vent, but self-flagellation doesn't really do anything

We prefer Saltinx thanks

It's a shibboleth for this community. Something you use to alienate people who don't know that, under all those layers of irony, you don't actually want to kill white people. Also preserves the identity of the community as an edgy/crass leftist space.

You need to understand white people need of making everything about them. Is like basically their only culture.

we are losing our way

3 threads greater than 100 comments. Truly, this is one of the weeks where decades happens. I haven't read any of them.

Let’s colonize anti-racism

Yeah its one of the discussions on this site that make me remind myself that nobody irl talks like this

For what it's worth, I'm part of a communist org that's about 1/3 POC, and nobody in our group says this kind of stuff and we'd probably find it extremely weird and off-putting if someone did.

Yeah, that's what I've been saying. It's desperate, it's sad, and they all end up saying "no I don't actually mean kill all white people I mean to critique the concept of whiteness" THEN DO THAT INSTEAD OF WRITING THE SAME TIRED JOKE

You're not critiquing anything by making an ironic call for genocide. Critique the concept of whiteness then, and do it in a provocative way.
Most don't even mean to do that, they just hate racism or whatever, but they know that's a dumbass thing to write, because who doesn't hate racism? So instead they write something that will give them validation.

The worst post so far was the skiing one. Motherfucker you're talking about rich people, not white people.

Also this type of post comes around every few months, and this is the first time I haven't seen people make unironic actual calls for white genocide - as in "yes actually I think we should kill all people that are classified as white. I think actual genocide is good when it's against white people" (If you read this statement and think "hell yeah" then get help, you're not a good person for wanting to kill people) - so at least that's something.
I think this type of post helps reinforce to people that they can say and think what they want with no need for introspection, because they're "leftist" so they obviously have the rigjt opinion and they therefore never need to stop and consider wether they're doing something fucked up.

I'm one of the bad ones bad to the bone, babyyyyy

Have you considered it's kinda funny though, especially when random liberals take it super serious

Whites have a racism gene and lobe, if they dont do at least 20 racisms they explode. So they need to do a racisms against themselves, truly sad

Just between us, you may want to lay off this "grind up the bourgeoisie" stuff. It's a bit off-putting, even to fellow communists.

This is something Kim would say to Harry

hey we were all 14 once

“white” people don’t exist and if you think they do you’re tainted by white supremacy
