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
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
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"
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"
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.
