people are saying such shitty things about me. ill probably delete this, but can some of my comrades just give me a pep talk if your up to in. I know logically I love this place and this is a bad day, but I cant stop crying, i do so much work going out, doing mutual aid, supporting union drives, working with the dsa and psl ect and it doesn't fucking matter because as soon as I vent about the class of people who are giving me a hard time IM somehow stopping racial solidarity from happening. it hurts so bad and makes everything feel so pointless. i feel so disposable. im not gonna debate anyone i just want to chat with nice comrades who care. im actually crying hard over internet shit maybe its my sign to leave.

edit: THANK YOU for the out pouring of love comrade, here, in my dms, and on cytube. I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH. I will be staying. I will be taking a break after this sundays fanon post (its the last one and BEST chapter hope i can see you there) but I shall return even more powerful than before. you guys are amazing thank you again to everyone committed to making this a safe space for BIPOC people to express themselves.

All the hate to those haters. Other people unable to contend with their personal contradictions is not your fault and you've handled yourself remarkabley despite the recent stream of piss and shid from people who don't know the first thing about you. I see you, hear you, and appreciate your presence and posts. Hexbear has a lot of positive things going for it, but stuff like this shows how white it still is. I can only say that as a honkey who has had to do a lot of personal work and self-crit about what that means.

Hey comrade Othello, I heard from another comrade that the white people on Hexbear are being weird again and directing that toward you. I don't know what happened but I just wanted to say that you are not crazy and you're not alone.

I've gotten into fights with other Chapos that have left me feeling betrayed and crying and I want to say it's really embarrassing for these "allies". If they are declaring themselves allies should know better.

The things I've heard them say are despicable and I expect better from people that dare to call themselves anarchists, communists or allies.

Much love from a comrade,
