Ethnic Minorities and People of Color
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.

Contrapointas continuing her bs after the gaza shitshow by implying the online left is either stupid or russian disinformation cause thinking kidnapping sovereign leaders and killing brown people is bad is the wrong opinion lmao... stfu crakkker bitch
Clintonpoints and western "leftists" are nothing but a terrible joke.
Only .1% of western leftists are actual leftists, the others are libs masquerading as such.
Source: Just see any post on this website by a Western leftist
I couldn't even understand the point she was trying to make because she wasn't making any
Part of me wonders if she's just ragebaiting atp. Anyway fuck her.
Yeah I'm a bit puzzled at who her "base" is even supposed to be? All the centrist libs hate her for being "leftwing" and a "progressive" breadtuber, the middle-age corporate women who make up the centrist DNC base do not like her millenial/zoomer "aesthetic" at all and find her theatrics offputting, all the progressive libs hate her for cozying up with clinton and co and folding on Palestine / Trans Rights. Like who is she even for now? I assume nobody, and her entire audience now is just her pissed off former audience.
Making videos was actual work. Why do that when you can just instead tweet out some ragebait every couple months
If it explains anything, she's a Hilary Clinton supporter
Supporting the killing of brown people is her forte then.
She isnt called Sandinistapoints for a reason.
used to make sense for her when the empire was pretending to be progressive liberal, but now a government of a fascist transphobe breaks the liberal laws she believes in and she still says full support, it's like watching a puppet show where the puppets beat themselves up, then the puppet master cuts his string and leaves, but the puppets are still putting a self humiliating show.
in other words, Girl sold out Palestinian kids because she believed they made trump win, and now they besties 😭😭
Oof
Shining example of everything that is wrong with Western "leftists".
