Everyday I find another reason to smile at her downfall. Settlers applies to POC as much as it does white people. (Some) Black Americans really think genocide isn't something to withhold a vote over.

This in addition to the "how do I report my neighbor for being an illegal immigrant/ I want to report a lady I know for getting an abortion" posts on reddit really shows the reality of blue MAGA.

How did BIPOC do it to themselves when they were either here first and had their land stolen from them, or were forcibly shipped over against their will, and had little to no rights until very recently, and still have generations of oppression to overcome.

Because they will agree that the things the US does abroad is okay or even good, you dont get a pass for being a working class traitor just because ur skin is a different color

This is exactly what I was talking about in the em_poc megathread. USAmericans insist those of us from the global south must have solidarity with the people who supported and were part of the invasion of our countries because they are also oppressed minorities

[–] GlueBear@hexbear.net 6 points 5 days ago

It's stupid and evil. Like no idgaf that you're oppressed, your shit ass country is butchering my people in their own homes with drones and missiles.

Really giving 'black (free and slave owning) Haitians that supported France during the eve of the Haitian revolution' energy.

I have not met a single BIPOC individual who supports America's foreign policy, have you?

Kamala Harris literally campaigned on maintaining the US's status as the most lethal military in the world

[–] BabyTurtles@hexbear.net 2 points 5 days ago (2 children)

I haven't met Kamala Harris. If you use one establishment Democrat to inform your opinion of all black people, you're probably going to end up inexcusably ignorant.

The cure is ignorance is fostering friendships with people on a personal level, listen with the intent of understanding their struggle. Leftist spaces are not doing a good enough job of giving black voices a space and y'all are using Kamala as your excuse to keep it that way.

I've worked with countless BIPOC people who were proud members of the US military

USAmericans are not "all black people"

[–] BabyTurtles@hexbear.net 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You are right, I was wrong, I should have said "all black Americans".

You don't have to deal with internalized racism because you could put out a good dunk instead.

Correcting USAmerican centrism is not a "dunk"

[–] BabyTurtles@hexbear.net 1 points 12 hours ago

Like I'm talking about a burning house in the US, and "but there are burning houses in other countries too you USAmerican centrist".

Wonderful, thank you for your input, none of the burning houses were helped from this.

That's really weird, do you live in a super conservative area that happens to have black and indigenous people that talk foreign policy to people very quickly after meeting them?

I live in a very diverse, working class, mostly leftist area, all of my friendship circles are extremely critical of America's foreign policy.

Why is your local community so pro-Imperialism?

[–] Mokey2@hexbear.net 7 points 5 days ago

I work and I meet all sorts of people, I'm not going to argue with you
