pastelgrungebaby: marchoftigers: pastelgrungebaby: www-voiceshipping: Moderator: IT’S TRUE DOE! Chibi Marianne: It has some errors, but that’s okay, right? Right?! RIGHT?!?!?! Yes, because racist people always have a romantic relationship with someone of the race they hate…. yeahhhhhhhh Well here’s the thing: Just because you’re friends with Poc, date Poc, or love PoC doesn’t mean that you’re exempt from internalizing racism. It’s been proven time and time again that you’re not exempt from racism because you have PoC friends. Ask any PoC and they’ll tell you.  Yeah I totally didn’t catch you switching your point from being racist with a PoC lover and racist with PoC friends. YOU TOTALLY SLIPPED THAT UNDER THE RADAR YOU ARE SO SNEAKY! Also, you realize there is a big difference between being racist and doing racist things without realizing it right? Um being racist with a PoC friend and a PoC lover are very similar, ya’ know that right?  Also, you realize there is a big difference between being racist and doing racist things without realizing it right? Um, I on’t know if you know this, but no. There isn’t. If you really think there is, you might have some unchecked privilege is your system.  It doesn’t matter if you did something racist without realizing it, it’s still racist, just as dangerous, and it still needs to be called out on. Intent isn’t magical, after all.  But hey! I think I’ll just sum this up with something LadyAthiest said. Are you ready for it? If the point flew that far over their heads, I seriously doubt they did[Get the point]. Hey, at least no one can say you didn’t try. lol Thanks, and have a nice day!
