Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

You hit the core of what
people often either can't or won't understand; it's about systems, not individuals.
and now that you bring it up i wonder how much liberal capitalitalist hyper individuality and meritocracy contributes to protecting whote supremacy.
Western society does seem specifically designed to slap down all thoughts of analyzing social systems.
This is a primary support system for white supremacy. From it spawns "I got mine, fuck you" and a number of other social poisons that maintains the white supremacist status quo.
When personal identity is perceived as something bought and worn like Twitter flair emojis, it makes being a disadvantaged person seem like a choice.
To quote /u/BeamBrain
If jexbear is remembered at all it will ne for this.
