    I don’t know, I think theres quite a gap bewteen actively shitting on white nationalist tropes and concepts and screaming “im one of the good ones!” at every poc who walks by

    And reducing that spectrum to “because you hate yourself or your parents or whatever” is ironically enough, also cringe

    Hate to point out the obvious, but white supremacy won’t dissappear unless “white people” actaully talk about it and I’ve read enough Thanksgiving posts on this site to know alot of you patsy mfs got some white citizens council-ass family members who need a good talking to

      No I agree, I think it’s good to point that out. I just feel like a lot of the responses here are “I’m white but it’s okay because I hate myself”.
      Yeah my reduction is cringe too. I tried to keep the tone joking, so it wouldn’t come off as too serious, but I can see how I messed that up.
