People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

Yes, if it said that personality came from genes, then said that said black girl had "great jeans.'"
Do you think black supremacy doesn't exist? Black Israelism and 5% Nation are both explicitly black supremacists imo, and I in no way consider them to be doing my skin color favors. I will criticize them the same way I criticize British Israelism. As well as other dog whistles or other colorism.
I'm also highly critical of black people who hate on lighter colored black people, and have family who has suffered from it.
Did you think that was a gotcha? That people critical of racism aren't critical of racists of similar color to them?
"People are overreacting" was a common response to the rise of Trump, the increase in first amendment violations by religion, police brutality, and yes, even the Nazis. We need to react to the shift that are happening to make sure they stop. If they seem like an overreaction to you, it's because you aren't the one in danger,and you don't care about those of us who are. You even admitted you weren't in the US, and said you were confused.
I explained the context, and now you, someone who doesn't have experience of growing up in American racism, are judging the reaction?
"People are overreacting" is just gaslighting. I don't think this person has good intentions.
You. You are gaslighting us when you claim it's "overreacting."
Lol, lmfao even. Got it, you are a white supremacist
