Self flagellation emoji when?

Okay, but hear me out: what if I'm not one of the good ones?

As a white man,

kill the cracker inside yourself

I guess i don't see it much differently than calling for the genocide of colonizers or . Like it's not that deep. It's fun to dunk on people who take anti-whiteness seriously. But i'm sorry it makes you feel uncomfortable and like mayos are trying to absolve themselves of their mayoness. I guess i just see it as white people rejecting white supremacy and punching up at white people who believe in white supremacy or race """science""", which seems harmless to me. But thanks for sharing your point of view.

It makes me cringe really hard but if people think it's funny or whatever it doesn't really hurt anyone.

idk, where else can we say that? Like if we say that anywhere else we're just gonna be shouted at by a bunch of liberals and accused of reverse racism. The charge that it's trying to absolve oneself of their own complicity in the racial hierarchy is a valid one, but it also is a genuine sentiment among white people especially on the left, and even among those apolitical people who have yet to realize that what they mean when they complain about "the man" or "society" is white bourgeois society and values. It's a wholly emotional statement, and obviously "fuck white people" isn't a basis for organizing or political action, but this is a shitposting site at heart and I think it's fine if white people want to vent about their fellow hwhytes every now and again.

(I say this as a white person)

I feel like I was just talking about smth adjacent to this in c/em_poc the other day.

There’s a formulating barb in my head about how these crackers might be just as bad as 4channers in some ways about expropriating Black rage but I don’t have the words measured, hammered out, and concrete for it yet.

Y'all are super-duper loud about crackers; (In this community discussion sense, cracker == settler; as opposed to the whole of caucasity) to a point that genuinely does start feeling performative. Like yeah, I'm finna laugh when a well timed "unlimited death" jumps out there, weaponizing fear of the "gReAt RePlAcEmEnT" against crackers will always be great fun-- but some days looking at the hexbear feed, it feels like I'm watching reverse-Mantan. Like, if anti-minstrel shows were a thing, if white minstrelry based itself in performative contrition and public self-flagellation, that's what some of the bits start feeling like after a while-- ESPECIALLY when a dozen of those type posts drop in a three day span.

Kind of a goofy bit to constantly return to, and vaguely discomforting to watch continue. Like... If you're really 'one of the good ones' like you claim to be (collective, not singular; don't wear the shoe if it don't fit), then it doesn't need to be that loud all the time, feel me?
