On a different Lemmy account I forgot to switch to local and was subjected to the cesspool of Lemmy World. There I encountered libs being seriously condescending toward Muslims in America for boycotting Genocide Joe. Shit like “don’t they realize Trump will be worse for minorities” and “that’s shortsighted and a failure of Muslim leadership” and even the incomprehensible “hate is a bad long term strategy” (this just in folks, opposing genocide is Hate, supporting genocide is Love! But Liberals aren’t fascists! /s)

Fuck Liberals. I almost respect Conservative racists more because they’re open about being evil scum, whereas the libs are too deluded to even admit to themselves that they’re racist.

It’s honestly hilarious to me at this point the way Democrats have voting and campaigning completely backwards. They really do believe it’s a question of personal responsibility and civic participation that you should go vote for a Democrat, and if the Democrats lose they’re completely blameless because the voters failed in their duties and should now be derided and condescended to.

My favorite has been quoting the line back to them about “vote for who you want in the primary and then vote for the democratic candidate in the general”

I’m from New York, you canceled the last two primaries. Seems like you’re not even holding up your end of that deal so no I’m not voting for an enthusiastic war criminal.

BLM Protests happened under Trump, where are the protests under Brandon? Liberals are complacent.

If Trump does something evil, say support genocide in Palestine, there would be widespread condemnation from liberals.

If Brandon does something evil, liberals tell you to vote for the evil doer.

If Trump was president every single liberal would have the palestinian flag in their profile.

The only difference between a republican and a democratic president is when it’s a dem president liberals tell minorities to stop complaining because it makes them look bad, even though they were protesting the same issue when a republican was president.

How’s dejoy doing as head of the usps

How’re the camps going on the southern border

How much oil are we currently drilling

Those were all pretty serious issues when a republican was president

I’m honestly expecting the attacks to get worse. “You Ain’t Black” part two, and Genocide Joe won’t even have to say it himself this time

Yea liberals can usually only contain their open disdain for minorities for so long when they start asking why they should support liberals.

For some reason “because the other side is worse you uneducated simpletons” doesn’t really work

I can at least freely shit on conservative racists, but it’s hard to do that for libs who genuinely can’t even realize how fucking racist they are.

It’s absolutely great that any condemnation of their own particular branch of racism can be brushed off with the thought-terminating “The Other Side is Worse!”

Geez, it’s like getting forced to pick between getting stabbed in the face or getting stabbed in the leg and being told “No, not being stabbed at all isn’t an option”

They’re a lot more similar than face vs leg. It’s like getting to be thankful for the privilege of choosing whether they drive the iron spike into your brain through your right eye or your left eye.

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?

  1. Follow Lemmy TOS and Community Guidelines. Non negotiable. This is the bedrock and mods will make decisions with this always in mind.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.
