Remember, EM POC only!
This message is to my EM POC comrades: Angel loves all of you.
Especially as of late, I have truly been feeling like this community has worked wonders in keeping me stable when it comes to handling the massive jar of mayo that this site can be sometimes.
How are you all?
I messed up my med intake and now I'm sick and angry why am I like this 😭
I feel that too, tovarshi. 
Spent today in bed, which i bad because i had things i was supposed to do
Like read theory?
Like write papers and code assignments
The whites will write a news article calling you a murderer even before thinking of holding up a rifle.
With people like this, we might as well get something for a self-defense... after all, they said, 
an armed society is a polite society...
Gonna refrain from browsing outside of c/em_poc for however long it takes for me to feel comfortable browsing other comms again. This site really can utterly disgust me with how inconsiderate people here are about respecting ethnic minorities and people of color. Like I said, it's no mystery why this comm is the only comm where I don't expect to see flat-out evil bullshit pop up in one form or another.
I just had a first date with this absolutely gorgeous girl and it went so damn well. Ended up making out really hard. Ugh. melt
I'm pretty damn proud of myself. I missed this feeling of a good first date. What a high.
Racism is so much harder to cope with when you don't have family to confide in about how naSSty these vanilla gorillaSS keep treating you 
every day I thank Allah that I never saw a white person irl.
Having a very hard time keeping it together right now...
It's one thing to be going through such tough feelings; it's another thing altogether to feel like there's nothing you can do about it.
I finally found this video, I saw it a few years ago and it made me awe so hard it kept being stuck in my mind.
Holy shit the comments. "Wow I hope more people are like this woman and we have can have peace!"
Even pre-9/11 Isreal has been doing awful shit in Palestine but of course white liberals have to pat themselves on the back for not immediately stabbing some guy terrified of flying.
I hope she got merk'd by the IDF at the music festival.
I didn't watch it but if this mike tyson jake paul nonsense doesn't sum up the shitshow that America (frankly most of the world) has been and the mass delusion they're under Idk what does. Same mfs that concluded that covid only killed older folks thought it was a good idea to sanction a bout with a near 60 year old and broadcasted it on the biggest possible platforms like netflix saying "hey look here we have absolutely no standards or regard for reality or safety measures". All this with a "celebrity line up" to watch this shit. Fucking disturbing. This, along with the circus trump is appointing, makes this one of the dumbest weeks 
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.
