2024-08-27 11:08:20 +0000 UTCNot saying everyone’s that level of racist but just arguing that outright rejection of behaviors (and sometimes the person) has its value in some instances.

2024-08-27 10:56:42 +0000 UTCBut for a person or group of people who generally do not have empathy for black people…I have my doubts that the compassionate approach is always practical. I mean if you think about it, we’re the descendants of lynchers. Not literally, but in terms of generations, which presumably passed on their racist views about the world and so on and so forth. I’m not sure pulling them aside and saying “hey that kills people” would have changed much at all for the people engaging (and indeed the people complicit in) in that type of violence.

2024-08-27 10:43:08 +0000 UTC“Pick me” anything is a person that tries to separate themselves from the group they are a part of in a way that is rejecting and prejudicial. Another way to put it is internalized bigotry about themselves and accepted it and is trying to separate themselves from the rest of them. A “pick me” gay is someone who says “all the other gays are feminine and shallow and into fashion but I’m “normal”” “Pick me” is the insult that is akin to “Uncle Tom” for black people.

2024-08-27 01:01:19 +0000 UTCGood afternoon from NY. Kirk, I'd like a few feet in your house dedicated to me. But seriously I'm proud to be a long term Patron. Serenity is #1.

2024-08-26 18:31:51 +0000 UTCAfrican American is also an issue if you’re black British. A famous comedian in the UK had an issue with this in America when he asked to be called black British but they refused as they said it was offensive and called him African American, his response was something like I’m neither African nor American.

2024-08-26 16:45:45 +0000 UTCAs a teacher of teenagers I can report that the f word has replaced 'gay' as the homophobic insult that is used constantly out of our earshot. The kids in our GSA tell me about it. 😢
