I've written like four drafts or something for an effortpost about this but GOD WILLING if I can work out the kinks I will share it later today (GOD WILLING)

But yeah it's like, "how do we kill whiteness" feels like one of those topics where people here actually do tend to agree on a lot if not most of the basics, but people still just tend to be uncharitable (not maliciously ofc) with how they interpret others, and this causes conflicts to emerge basically out of thin air... I think that's what makes whiteness a thornier issue to write about than it really needs to be, because I feel like I just have to constantly assure readers that yes I have accounted for this-and-that Actually, and no I am not saying such-and-such In Fact — otherwise I get paranoid I'm gonna get anta-baka'd over things that I wasn't actually trying to say, blech

Edit: in fact the problem of misinterpretation I'm describing already happened in this very thread as I was writing this comment, and I hadn't even said anything other than "white dissimilation" and "my family succeeded"

Edit 2: in fact that person wasn't actually trying to misinterpret me but I assumed he was, ironically
