Hello nerds 
, hope you all have a good week 
Remember no crackers
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.

one of the accounts that has been rising since the protests in LA is this Mexican chud that think only the anglos are capable of settler colonialism
evidence even latinos are capable of having brain worms
A lot of brown Latin Americans think being mestizo makes them exempt from settler colonialism. One of my biggest pet peeves.
As a mestizo Filipino, lol. lmao, even. The one drop rule will always come into effect, sometimes sooner rather than later.
same. look, they didn't even teach the philippine american war in filipino schools as my parents were growing up. (mom mestiza, dad mixed chinese)
i worry for our latin cousins sometimes
Huh another kababayan.
Yeah, though I haven't checked my ancestry, I figured, due to my light skin, I'm prolly mestizo as well
I think we all are, to some extent, due to how long Spain colonized the country. Then you have all the people from neighboring areas moving to the Philippines throughout history.
its a raza cosmica beliver, so it a unique type of latino chud, also he has been push up by the patsocs on twitter so its one of those people too
What's this chud's point about that belief?
That iberians arent white people and poiting out spanish colonialism is a plot to divide people, probably some leyenda blanca believer, they also mention the raza cosmica which is an eugenist belief too
Hmm...
:spain-cool: punitin ang sedula
Feel like latinos have the biggest, most insane brain worms out of anyone
