Official Title of this Community: Ethnic Minorities and People of Color
Why is the title different?
We like to have fun here.
What is this place? A safe space for underrepresented peoples and peoples of color to talk, chill, and vibe.
What are the basic rules of the community?
-
Follow Lemmy TOS and Community Guidelines. Non negotiable. This is the bedrock and mods will make decisions with this always in mind.
-
This community is for ethnic minorities and people of color. This is a safe space where such people can freely discuss their struggles, insight, and thoughts without fear. If you are not, we respectfully ask you do not post or comment here. A future community will be established to allow for racial discussions with a mixed userbase. However, remember, comments here must still respect Lemmy TOS and Community Guidelines.
-
Irony Racism is still racism. Racism is bad m'kay? We will treat irony racism and bad faith racist satire as racism. Will wield the ban hammer accordingly.
-
No sectarianism: This is an identity channel not a channel for you all to complain about why XYZ isn't the "one true leftism". Take that to another place.
-
Stupidpol is not allowed. Stupidpol is class reductionist. We are an identity community. Thinking like stupidpol ignores the struggles of the oppressed, their voices, and their need for unique support. Nothing says oppression more than someone saying that the identity you have is "not real" and that if you only thought like them you'd see what your "real" identity is. Mods reserve the right to ban users and content who promote stupidpol, stupidpol memes, and other class reductionist thinking.
FAQ
I don't look XYZ and/or sometimes I can pass as white so I don't know if I can post here. Can I?
-
This place is for ethnic minorities and people of color. This includes those of mixed heritage and those who may be "white" but are of an ethnicity that is a minority in their area (i.e. Kurds, etc) If you've experienced oppression due to your identity that is not based on sexual / gender identification, you are welcome here.
-
Moreover, for our American audience, we have people from around the world who are "white" but are oppressed due to being a minority in their country. They are and should be welcomed here.
What can I post?
- Anything you think is relevant to the mission of this community. Things will evolve over time.
- Topics and things relevant to EM and POC.

The main star of emilia perez is hella racist. Going on about moors in spain etc. Oscars really picked a winner there. 13 nominations. Shit those bigotted statements may have guaranteed wins
she was racist versus muslims, black people, asian people, latinos and indigenous people. im surprise no pr people decided to delete those tweets before the movie came out
"I really think that very few ever cared about George Floyd, a drug scammer, but his death has served to make it clear again that there are those who still consider black monkeys without rights and who consider the police to be a murderer. All wrong." Shit she could make a campaign for trump admin off that
They're still peddling lies about George Floyd even after it was found our Chauvin owed him money and knew him beforehand? Not to mention the protection rackets going on?
The fetanyl shit is a popular one. Anything to ignore the elephant in the room.... The elephant kneeling on someones fucking neck
Even crazier she was railing on diversity at the oscars.
The last tweet people found before she deleted her account was one defending hitler
"This is the same old story, “black slaves and women in the kitchen.” But it is my opinion and it must be respected. I do not understand so much world war against Hitler, he simply had his opinion of the Jews. Well, that’s how the world goes." What is she even trying to say. the fuck is this incoherent shit
"he simply had his opinion of the Jews"
Yeah, that opinion killed 6 million Jews. wtf? Where did the frenchie dig up this repulsive woman?
you may be surprised, but right-wing spaniards are like a time capsule of how 1930's fascists used to be like
"Hitler believed that his people were divine and belonged to a superior race. They all destroyed him, now the swastika cannot even be reproduced. The church, Islam, etc., etc., have caused millions more deaths throughout the history of humanity and they are still here. It makes you think." Hitler absolutely doesn't make you think
It honestly seems the french were looking for the most racist trans actress they could find
Just have zidane become their national team coach. And have him win a trophy. That will be their 9/11
Damn, do the Francais have fucking one-drop rule? (with Arabs/West Africans/Muslims ofc)
Cuz when I look at Zidane, he looks like any Frenchie
Idk if its one drop rule but things really has been contentious with arabs there. Hell the french president stepped down due to dumb comments on whether zidane steps up to coach em. Talking about he won't pick up the phone. Mind you this guy won 3 champion's league titles in a row as coach. Never been done before.
And Benzema comes out of national team retirement and scores the winning goal in the final
Ribery gives him the assistfor that goal
Honestly I'm wondering if this is all a sick inside joke. Everything about this movie seems off. Director saying spannish is a poor mans language and that he didn't need to learn mexican culture. The pants shittingly bad soundtrack. How most of the audience does not seem to rock with it. Then this lead actress being a straight nazi
70,000,000+ people died in WWII because of the Axis Powers. The total number of people killed in the Crusades is around ~10 million, which is still less than the number of people killed in the Holocaust (17 million).
Maaaaaaaaaaybe you could make an argument for colonialism killing more people than WWII, but that was fueled by nationalism and capitalism just as much as it was religion. Then you start factoring in different countries, rulers, and time periods. What Hitler, Hirohito, Tojo, and Mussolini did, however, was completely unprecedented in scope considering how shortly they were in power.
Where the fuck did she come from? Is there a secret Vichy hideout somewhere we don't know about where they train undercover agents to have the worst takes imaginable?
Exactly. And once again how many yts were killed in that 70 million? In a remarkably short time.Yet mfs STILL want to hand it to him and think hmmmm that was a grand idea. They should be more offended by that than we POC are but they seem determined to try and give him knighthood
Well what can I say
Words to live by!
What thee absolute fuck? For real? What she say
Here is the hitler tweet
Its like she is trying to push the limits of human stupidity
Another tweet she made The chinese vaccine, aside from the forced chip implant, comes with two spring rolls, a cat that moves its hand, 2 flowers made of plastic, a lantern, 3 cable lines and one Euro for your first controlled purchase." Jesus christ
She got so many racist tweets against damn near every ethnic group
Never even heard of that but the description just makes it sound like another “Mexico and Central America, except it’s all cartels.”
Same shit you see anywhere when the region is involved. No surprise that someone participating in it is a bigot.
Which it is... There's nothing rlly Mexican about it. It's the typical generic cartel story shlock, when I last watched it on Hextube, with the others (Ath3ro and FunkyStuff can attest to that).
Some musical acts can be serviceable, but most of the time it's just mediocre...

God that was awful. US Latinos continue to prove that the only “Hispanic” thing about them is their surname and ancestry.
Why do I feel like it would be a million times worse if we actually understood what she's trying to say?
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
