It tells me all I need to know about the fedi that Vanta and so many other queers on here were crickets about Eris misgendering and body-shaming a Black transfem (on top of a MOUNTAIN of other racist shit) but get the outrage machine going 24/7 when Ro wasn't 100% correct about their abuser and harasser David's pronouns.
Oh, and the double standard of "block this Black queer person en masse but if you block ME en masse that's murder uwu"
Extra fedi racism bingo for the "I'm white passing but not white" ass-covering. As someone who is Asian and not white passing in any way, I can say with 1,000% certainty that Asians are VERY VERY CAPABLE of being antiblack & racist so cut that crap.
Seriously, why does everyone who ever does a racism on the fedi do the "I'm not actually white so we're fine" thing? Do you all go to Racism College? Is that what they teach you to say, why do you all sound the same??

@ljwrites noticed there were a lot of folks not respecting Ro's non binary existence. Lot's of denial of the white supremacy we all grow up under and internalise.
Lot's of folks piling on, not even considering the context or history.

@onepict there's always a pattern who gets the benefit of context and consideration and who doesn't.

People, you do realize that this is abusive, right? This is enabling and amplifying racist abuse. Needling, harassing, and piling on someone day after day after day until you find some tiny imperfection in the victim's response, then jumping on them screaming bloody murder because they cracked under the pressure and said something that failed to be textbook perfect? Where was your energy for the racist harassment? Oh, you didn't KNOW? Then why not, idk, find out?
If your stance is that you don't give enough of a shit about racist harassment even to find out about it, but are so so up in your feels to crucify the victim of a years-long racist harassment campaign for being angry and fed up at this whole bs, guess whose friend you're being, the racists' or their targets'.

@[email protected] And also them saying a line of "I will not know every detail as I'm not always online" like surely that's better to sit this one out and read up about it?

Also, in general, if you have a fairly large fedi friend group and been here a while, yet don't have a single person in your circle who cares enough about fedi's antiblackness problem to talk about it, you should probably ask yourself why. I get it, this place is unrelentingly white, but if no one you know is even concerned or angry about the extremely long-running and much-discussed history of antiblack harassment on here, you gotta question what kind of circles you're running in.
