Follow site/board rules. Report and ignore bait (especially from those defending male violence and brutality on black women). Be aware of common infight & bait topics (diaspora wars, Africans vs African-Americans, interracial dating, etc.) and act accordingly.

I agree with the black women on Twitter who defend each other from racists and sexists, but it makes me so sad to be reminded that those people exist. I know the obvious answer is to mute or unfollow them if they fight with racists too often, but they're also a lot of the same people that post nice, uplifting content. I wish Twitter had an option to block text posts or something.
I hate being reminded that there will always be demented spergs who hate me only for my phenotype, and that they always personally demand to be viewed as individuals while lumping me and others like me into boxes. I'm really not built for this race war bullshit. I want to believe no one is, except maybe some moids and bulldog pickmes, but I just can't be one of them. I'm aware of the existing social structure, so I still don't believe in "POC solidarity" and I don't stick my neck out for other group's causes, but I can't find it in me to hate any individual unless they're hateful first. I can't entirely let go of the ideal of people just living in peace, even if logically, I know that humans will fight over anything (including, but not limited to, race).
One bizarre thing is that the few times I've anonymously talked about these feelings without disclosing my own race, I've been called a white liberal with a "bleeding heart", told that only white people feel this way because they have "suicidal empathy and white guilt" and that all the blacks and browns hate me and want me dead. Often, at least one person agrees with that person and attempts to steer the entire discussion into a series of rants about how white people need to be more racist because every group supposedly despises white people.

>>530439>Often, at least one person agrees with that person and attempts to steer the entire discussion into a series of rants about how white people need to be more racist because every group supposedly despises white people.If anything, other groups are very envious if not worshipful. Every other groups puts their lightest and brightest on a pedestal, every group loves the idea of half-white kids. They've been dominating the world since the Enlightenment. Insane, really
But I've had similar experiences online. The irony is that people act like whiteness is both the original sin and the ultimate prize. It's this weird paradox: public hostility paired with private aspiration. Sometimes it feels like people hate whiteness less for what it is and more for the fact that it's still winning. Not defending it—just observing the contradiction.

>>530439I feel you Nona. I had the same exact experience, same exact thoughts. You're not alone.
>One bizarre thing is that the few times I've anonymously talked about these feelings without disclosing my own race, I've been called a white liberal with a "bleeding heart", told that only white people feel this way because they have "suicidal empathy and white guilt" and that all the blacks and browns hate me and want me dead. This usually comes out full force during Pride Month. I don't know why. It's usually when I feel the most suicidal, because I then feel hated even more than usual, or whatever fog that keeps the severity at bay is eliminated.
But this is also why I LARP as a fictional entity online so that race simply doesn't come up.
