A group of rough looking boys walked past me today and all I heard of their conversation was “he’s got that anxiety disorder bro so I went with him so he’d be more comfortable” and it made me realise the world isn���t all that bad

I dont know how White fandom ppl will watch a movie or series with like a 99% nonwhite cast & a plot focusing on them & their culture, but instead will hyperfocus on the one or two White characters (often ones that are there specifically to be the villians and are racist) that are there and then not think that that's weird

It’s really wild to me how ppl are like “america is becoming fascist” as it’s never been fascist before. What would you call a country that wrote “all men are created equal” as slaves toiled away? What would you call a country that had legally established segregation on the basis of race? Forcing groups of people off the land they’ve known their whole lives to reserved plots? Internment camps? The bombing of unionizing citizens? The forced eviction of townships to demolish and pave over their homes? There are many instances of cruelty where if you read about happening in some other country, you’d feel your stomach turn in disgust. But since it happened in the good ol’ u s of a, it’s just y’know a complex historical event.

like i cannot stress enough if ur white u have been raised and taught to view urself as the center of the world, almost all media caters to you, ur cultures viewpoints dictate the world, ur ancestors are the “victors” of colonialism and shaped the planet to fit white supremacy, that little voice in ur head that tells you to comment on every post about racism u see with stuff like “LISTEN to this white people” “im white, but this is important” “im as white as snow but i also agree with this” is not the compassionate gesture u think it is

that little voice is ur taught racist desire to center urself and ur opinion as more important and factual, something to be listened to above all else, because you were raised to believe you and everyone like you has the final say, you get uncomfortable when brown people voice frustrations because you don’t like reckoning with how the entire world is shaped in your image, you need to ignore that little voice that tells you your input is needed, because that little voice means absolutely nothing to the lived experiences of people of color, we donot need your approval or for you to agree for the racist history that has oppressed all of us to be true, we donot need YOU to tell us we are right when it has already been proven through history, through statistics, on the millions of lives lost to genocide and war in the name of white supremacy, you are not the center of the world, you are just taught that you are

slightly related this makes me think of when i went to a pop up thrift and a white girl around my age touched my hair without asking (as if id let her even if she asked) and i was like what r u doing and she goes “its so beautiful” and i told her that doesnt give her the right to touch me or my fro and she, i kid you not, pointed to her blm pin on her bag and expected me to be like overjoyed and praise her for Liking Us but got nasty with me when i said “You don’t get to fucking touch me” there r millions of u performative allys walking around being weird to us trust me we know how to spot u, bc u feel entitled to us and expect praise for Liking Us but you never even actually Like Us

once you remember that you are not in fact catholic and do not actually have to confess your sins all the time things will get better for you. kill the part of you that wants to go into some strangers inbox and tell them why you don’t listen to rap.

I'm all for talking shit about the states, but the US exists BECAUSE of european colonialism. In fact most of the world has been colonized by europe.

You're not better because your colonial nation has fancy cheese and health care

The problem with playing smash or pass is that there's a lot of characters which I'm not sexually attracted to but I would fuck in a heartbeat out of sheer curiosity and ego, like I don't find Mickey Mouse attractive at all but if he approached me at a bar and went "Hey sexy, want me to show you my mouseketool?" I would say yes because then I get to tell my friends I fucked Mickey Mouse

i saw a post recently telling people they shouldnt lie to their trans friends about whether they 'pass' because it could endanger them, and while i get the concept i think the problem is that passing is... so highly subjective? different people are gonna intepret your gender presentation differently.

like i've personally had strangers adjust their gendered language with me mid conversation and had no clue what changed their mind. i had a lunch break where one coworker had clearly assumed i was a man while the other had clearly assumed i was a woman and both kept side eyeing eachother in confusion. which is fine by me, that's the kind of reaction i've intentionally cultivated, but it does suck if you're aiming for a stealth lifestyle because there really isnt a line where you wake up one day 100% passing.

maybe just... try not to resent people if they say you pass when it turns out others may not agree with them. there's a good chance they weren't intentionally trying to give you false hope, it's just that gender is in the eye of the beholder, and if you're mid transition different people are gonna behold you differently.

someone on this website can make the mildest anti-work post like "i hate having a job i wish i could stay at home playing games" and the replies will inevitably be like "well if you want a TRUE COMMUNIST UTOPIA you'll need to PULL YOUR WEIGHT you cant be a USELESS LAYABOUT consuming EXPLOITATION you need to put aside your selfishness and ORGANISE with your COMMUNITY" and its like. okay i agree but have you never heard of 'wishes' and 'fantasies' before
