Hello nerds 
, hope you all have a good week 
Remember no crackers
i swear us americans treat travelling to different countries like going to another planet. a lot of "travel guides" especially to asian countries are lowkey racist and chauvinstic as fuck in a way i cant express clearly enough.
90 Day Fiancée I'm convinced exists solely to make my blood boil. I've only seen clips of it and it makes me want to slap the shit out of those scumbags.
All the anti-ICE protests kicking off give me some hope if I'm being real. Seeing libs go "noo we have to this peacefully" please go get your head broken by the police and the national guard then. As always it's on the oppressed to be peaceful as the gestapo marches in 🙄
The masses have been in the streets more frequently in the past 20 years and it'll only get more frequent. I have no more room for fake pacifist and incrementalism.
6 months in can only imagine what it's gonna be like in a year let alone for the rest of the term
When trump was inaugurated all my liberal friend's were "woeing" and dooming; I kept mentioning I'm not worried because I believe in the people and they told me they didn't so I knew we weren't on the same side. But many things are causing people to be fed up: lesser job opportunities + corporate AI takeover + unknown tarrif things + general apathy to trump + all the other unresolved problems from previous administrations + weirdo rwingers who want to play military. Not much more is needed to tip people over, just time.
There's nothing left to explain, I don't need to tell white people anything anymore, there's genocides going on supported by their governments, it's so obvious and so clear, you're an enemy if you don't recognize it.
Sometimes you really do know some on here are too online, western(ized) and propagandized. It becomes immediately obvious through their mannerisms and speech patterns. Especially when it comes to anti-imperialist actors internationally.
I would like to type so much - but I know it won’t help so I am exhibiting some self-control.
I don't know how many times I gotta say it, but something white leftists just can't seem to get:
Black liberation is 75% of my politics
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.
White "leftists" be like, "No need to try to unlearn my white supremacist conditioning if I just act like POC don't exist!" 
White people when my freeform dreadlocks were in the earliest phases: "Have you considered combing your nappy ass hair?"
White people when my freeform dreadlocks are longer and mature: "OMG, WAOW. SO COOL! IT'S LIKE BOB MARLEY! THAT'S SO EXOTIC! OMG!"
I swear to fucking God.
fucking hate libs. ''peaceful protesting'' is fine but the moment violence is used, that's too far. ICE deports people FFS. 
It really shows where their loyalties are. It's always on us to not be violent or confrontational. It's never the responsibility of racists to not be racist. I've had to deal with this a lot in my personal life with crackers letting other crackers say awful shit, but then when I argue with them about it I "ruined the holiday for everyone." Just shows how ingrained white supremacy is in the minds of white people.
I am very bias, please convince me that I'm wrong. So, I can't view Vietnam veterans as heroes. They came to conquer, to massacre, and left behind starving pregnant women. Then they made a musical to romanticise that, justified the passport bro movement and returned to the land they had hurt to marry young, uneducated women who didn't speak their language. I can't take them seriously when they condemn the Red Army for invading Eastern European countries that were under fascist occupation. I can't take them seriously when they vote against giving funds to agent orange cleanup and anything progressive. Why should any American veterans be considered heroes when the US started every other war they fought themselves anyway?
I am back to restricting myself to c/em_poc and c/mutual_aid, and this time, I intend it to be permanent.
I can't post an innocuous thread without having issues, and truthfully, I've been feeling a vibe to quit Hexbear entirely, but I still need support from c/mutual_aid, and even once I get more stability (whenever the fuck that'll happen), I want to support users there as well. However, after I hang for some time (I don't know how long) after having employment and financial stability and whatnot, I will delete my account and possibly stop using this site entirely.
It will never get fixed. I might, at the very least, remain on an alt to post on this comm again—I don't know, but there's no hope.
I know @[email protected] said she'd miss my posts, and I'm sorry, but I'm glad you seem able to understand.
Through all the bullshit I've gone through since I first started using this site, thanks for being there for me, all you beautiful EMPOC comrades.
That poster was being ridiculous. Sorry you won't be posting as much, but I'm even sorrier you suffer so much when asses like that pop up. Do what you need to for your comfort <3
Hate how every other post is like RACIST RIGHTWINGER SAYS MILDLY CORRECT THING, GOTTA HAND IT TO ‘EM
Tupac: I see no changes, the black community systematically oppressess Black people to sell and die in the streets to survive capitalism
Some white journalist named chuck: this song is a beautiful epitaph about the Black on Black crime that led to the creator's demise.
Time moves fast and all that but I forgot how strong the casual racism of Black folk was in the 90s-2010s born from miss characterization and stereotypes. Because how do you hear tupacs "changes" and only take away "Black on Black" crime
casual racism of Black folk was in the 90s-2010s born from miss characterization and stereotypes.
I just saw an RPG book where it listed all the different Europeans during the Scramble for Africa, while actual Africans were categorized as "West African," "Southern African," and (I shit you not) "feral," etc. Zulu? Tutsi? Somali? Hahaha ha nope! Why do any actual research into the second largest continent in the world with hundreds of languages and cultures when you can just stereotype everything and focus on European colonizers?
Book was written in 2000.
if you are not actively wishing for the USA to be nuked you are a loser
A bit late, but Happy Juneteenth.
Always thinking back to the fact that someone who I'm on good terms with and still talk to these days posted this on social media:
CW: Whte Lberal Being a Whte Lberal
"Genuine anti-racism doesn't make exceptions. If your anti-racism includes demonizing white people, it's not anti-racism. It's just racism."
It's just racism.
Systemic oppression of Whitey is a good thing, actually, and I'm tired of pretending it wouldn't be fucking awesome.
I'm just starting to tell those crackers that there is indeed anti-White racism and I openly espouse it. There was a meme about that but I can't find it.
We're not going to get some of them on board so I don't care anymore.
the poor whites facing racism and genocide in south africa 
The freeform dreadlocks keep getting more and more 
no cap
Happy Juneteenth!
Frijoles y arroz con repollo till I die fr. I think one day even when I make it I'm gonna stick to these classics. Been eating this for weeks on end, gotta say got a real chance of living better still gotta finish this course and get my EPA 608 license. It's everything my parents ever hoped for for me, a good job and future. Powering through sickness and apathy for something better, once I make it I'll be able to pull up the rest of my family I hope.
Happy Juneteenth nerds 
Looks like a global war is more likely to break out and economic collapse. If that happens and I go missing indefinitely it’s because I decided to live with the indigenous permanently lol
the indigenous comunities are probably going to be the least affected by the collapse of global trade so its a smart idea
found this at the segunda
discussion on Iran be like: "I will literally make up random unsourced claims and if you disagree with you're either ignorant or you do that stuff"
Remember, you kicked the colonizers jaws, it didn't stop wanting to eat you
I still do not regret my 3rd party vote. Majority of the people in my life do not know who I voted for(I think they assume Kamala) but if I hear hollow brain takes like "this is what they voted for", then I'm letting it rip. A coworker told me Biden wasn't that bad and I had to shut that down on the spot.
So, happy Juneteenth. Hope y'all well.
White ppl on this site making it very challenging to not take a hiatus.
Unrelated: reading Blood in My Eye
Making sure my siblings is with my dad more often when he goes out, heard immigration nearish where I live. My dad's a citizen but he does not speak English a lick. My mom's a legal resident and while the place she worked at tried to get in before the management told them to fuck off. Need to check in with extended family later on but damn
I'm cheating on my dentist and I only go to them because I'm a lib. My main dentist is black owned they play good music and they're nice but my fillings keep falling out from them. The good dentist is not black owned and plays Taylor swift but they have sturdy fillings :(. It's been a multi year breakup for the black dentist but I can't fully let go
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.
