Official Title of this Community: Ethnic Minorities and People of Color
Why is the title different?
We like to have fun here.
What is this place? A safe space for underrepresented peoples and peoples of color to talk, chill, and vibe.
What are the basic rules of the community?
Follow Lemmy TOS and Community Guidelines. Non negotiable. This is the bedrock and mods will make decisions with this always in mind.
This community is for ethnic minorities and people of color. This is a safe space where such people can freely discuss their struggles, insight, and thoughts without fear. If you are not, we respectfully ask you do not post or comment here. A future community will be established to allow for racial discussions with a mixed userbase. However, remember, comments here must still respect Lemmy TOS and Community Guidelines.
Irony Racism is still racism. Racism is bad m'kay? We will treat irony racism and bad faith racist satire as racism. Will wield the ban hammer accordingly.
No sectarianism: This is an identity channel not a channel for you all to complain about why XYZ isn't the "one true leftism". Take that to another place.
Stupidpol is not allowed. Stupidpol is class reductionist. We are an identity community. Thinking like stupidpol ignores the struggles of the oppressed, their voices, and their need for unique support. Nothing says oppression more than someone saying that the identity you have is "not real" and that if you only thought like them you'd see what your "real" identity is. Mods reserve the right to ban users and content who promote stupidpol, stupidpol memes, and other class reductionist thinking.
FAQ
I don't look XYZ and/or sometimes I can pass as white so I don't know if I can post here. Can I?
This place is for ethnic minorities and people of color. This includes those of mixed heritage and those who may be "white" but are of an ethnicity that is a minority in their area (i.e. Kurds, etc) If you've experienced oppression due to your identity that is not based on sexual / gender identification, you are welcome here.
Moreover, for our American audience, we have people from around the world who are "white" but are oppressed due to being a minority in their country. They are and should be welcomed here.

Hello nerds

Remember no crackers
Seeing chuds put pics of charlie with mlk saying "you don't get silenced for the truth" when most of them don't view us as human beings 
I never wanna hear Westerners chat to us about propaganda
Got 5 interviews on my calendar right now, and I'm sure I got more to come 
I somehow expected the shooter to be a chud, still wondering why no one said he was doing "adventurism" when we didn't know his identity.
smh my head
Also, is it just me, or is that pic definitely AI-generated?
They did perform at a Super Bowl so maybe not, but it does have a bit of an AI luster to it. So maybe touched up by AI?
Speaking of AI though, I'm almost 100% the story itself is AI generated. No official sources confirming it. Also the whole article has that kind of writing quality that sounds like the type of shit an AI would generate.
I love the hexbear logic of supporting and sharing aremoveds work is okay if you just kinda dont care about his victims
Wasn't there a bunch of sexpests in the DSA a few years ago, as well? I know that one chapter had a speed dating event for party members. There's definitely aremoved culture among the NATO-core left commonly overlooked.
There were also struggle sessions here a few months ago when reading The Will to Change by bell hooks. It was going through one ear and out the other for a lot of hexbears with he/him pronouns.
