I have not met a single BIPOC individual who supports America's foreign policy, have you?

How did BIPOC do it to themselves when they were either here first and had their land stolen from them, or were forcibly shipped over against their will, and had little to no rights until very recently, and still have generations of oppression to overcome.
It's already a less safe place for BIPOC in the US. I get it, status quo sucks, but it can and will get worse.
Yo this is pretty insanely racist. Most black men don't have crypto investments, they just want to be allowed to walk and breathe without a trigger happy pig using them for target practice.
Fascists have for a while now been appropriating leftist talking points and aesthetics, which at best muddies the water, and at worst gives fascists outright control.
Reddit was already priming for that before the election.
I wouldn't be surprised if Democrats won and still blamed Gaza protestors for the turnout not being higher.
Outstanding post, this part spoke to me the loudest:
Female separatism, by placing such a big emphasis on distancing the feminist movement from men, already does this. It renounces the social construction of sex by assuming that men are innately evil to a point in which that male privilege, in the context of female separatism, is trying to be handled on an individual level rather than a systemic level at this point.
I can't help but feel right now that cis men are innately evil, because if they aren't, then why do they act like that??
From a higher reasoning perspective of course this isn't true, it stems from systemic issues and systemic issues require systemic solutions.
Getting to understand the root of my frustration though I'm working on avoiding falling into traps of racism and transphobia. It's still shocking how some anger and frustration can quickly pipeline to right wing ways of thinking.
Thank you for your service o7 I'm watching this first thing after work.
Do you have any recommended resources for educating myself and others on this? 4B ideas as picking up fast in my irl circles and I want to be ready.
It's WAY worse than that, the implication is that "political correctness" is not actually correct, and the correct/natural/default position is to be racist/white supremacist/homophobic/transphobic, and these have to be disguised purely for the purpose of being politically savory.
So if you aren't being racist you aren't being correct - you're being politically correct.
Yes it's absolutely ghoulish.
That's really weird, do you live in a super conservative area that happens to have black and indigenous people that talk foreign policy to people very quickly after meeting them?
I live in a very diverse, working class, mostly leftist area, all of my friendship circles are extremely critical of America's foreign policy.
Why is your local community so pro-Imperialism?
