"All white people are still to this day, racist." Okay, I'm stopping this now because clearly we aren't working off a shared understanding of the word. You and I must be arguing past eachother.

Look at my bio, bitches @twincitieschick.bsky.social

You're working off of an understanding that isn't rooted in reality. Everyone else (who isn't you) understands perfectly well what's going on. So yeah, you should definitely see yourself the fuck out of a conversation meant for adults.

You can stop now, and you probably should, but I would encourage you to continue educating yourself on this issue. Please check out my pinned post which will take you to my Antircacism 101 blog project. It will break down things like racism vs. prejudice and how they are not the same thing.

There's also plenty of people on here you could follow to learn more. @johnathanperk.bsky.social, @deardean22.bsky.social @leciamichelle.bsky.social, to name a few. But just listen and learn and don't argue with what they have to teach. It's our job to humble ourselves, listen, and learn.

What part do you play in helping to end white racism? You’re helping perpetuate and continue it when you encourage others to downplay racism in favor of your preferred issue.

"let's stop diving by race", I said. I'm sorry, did I miss the class on how putting people into boxes by color of their skin and judging them all as a collective was the solution to racism?

Yes, you very much did. You need to sit down and learn so much about this. You need to listen to what Black men and women are telling you. Everything I am saying, is what I have learned by just listening.

Someone mentioned the impact of racism and your first thought was “stop dividing by race.” That is downplaying her point to focus on your preferred issue.

You know, that's the best argument I've seen yet. I didn't realize that's what I did but I think you're right. There are multiple layers to Kamala's failure and racism was definitely 1 of them. I meant to argue that there were more (imo more impactful ones), but that wasn't prompted. My bad. I'll go
