It looks like white folks (men and women!) All broke for Trump. If that's the case, than yes, this election was about white supremacy plain and simple. this election was about white supremacy plain and simple

I also want to add that I'm seeing a lot people saying "WHY DIDN'T MINORITIES SAVE US FROM OURSELVES" Which is bullshit, because gently caress you, instead of telling your racist kin to gently caress off at Thanksgiving you just came here and posted "welp that's my family can't sever because that'd make me an rear end in a top hat" or "can't sever because what if I get excluded from *insert racist group here*". Y'all had 100+ years to tell your kin to gently caress off and you didn't, and this is what your hand wringing about lower class white "economic anxiety" got you

FactsAreUseless posted:7, I believe. Reforming the reporting system has been discussed a lot as part of the rebuilt forums code, and I assume it will be in there, but I don't know any of the details and it's still a long way out. Mods aren't fond of it either, for all of those reasons. The reason there's a limit is basically because there is a reports forum, and every report is a new thread created automatically in that forum. It means allowing a ton of reports would be super abusable. That's why I've always preferred having a poster PM me to be like "heads up, someone's making GBS threads up this thread" or "thread's getting lovely, starting on page XXX." But it's not a great system. Most forums don't need a ton of reports anyway, but when things go south in D&D they tend to do so quickly and loudly and persistently. this is actually really interesting, thank you for explaining. I know I keep harping on transparency, and I don't think yall should have to repeat yourselves 10,000 times but knowing stuff like this is very helpful, especially in the ways I think we should approach changing SA for the better

FactsAreUseless posted:I will say that, as a white guy, it took me a long time to understand things like internalized racism/misogyny/homophobia, let alone the complexities of race relations between different minorities. When the world is always presented to you as "white" or "minority," it can come as a huge surprise - and it takes a little bit to understand. Yeah thats one of the reasons I was confused. It was either genuine ignorance (which is why I suggested PMs) or nonsense. Despite what white racists think is going on (again by my pms) I'm not about to jump the gun if I don't know what's going on.

OwlFancier posted:If I'm missing something very obvious to you then I would appreciate an explanation because I feel like "I vote for this thing that empowers white people because I am white and like being more powerful than not white people" and "I vote for this thing that empowers white people and fucks me over because I am not white but I hate this other not white person" are different things. anything that promotes, establishes and entrenches white supremacy is white supremacy. manufacturing reasons for other minorities and poor whites to fight among themselves so whites can swoop in and do (whatever) is like White Supremacy 101. It's the first thing they teach you. Talmonis posted:I'm still new to this part. I have a lot of good black and latina women in my life who I work for and with and none of them show that kind of awful garbage.

But this doesn't mean that the black & latina women in your life are unicorns. it just means they are good people.

Control Volume posted:Wouldn't that just leave the status quo of them voting for Trump in the next election, though? Im more asking what the methods are for having Trump not win again 4 years from now, for personal use. Anyone you know who voted Trump should be cut out from your life. I'm not trying to say "well people who disagree with me politically should he punished" but I do believe people who are endorsed by the literal KKK should be ostracized. There's a reason the KKK collapsed after Superman mocked them. This election should've repudiated racist beliefs but it endorsed them instead. white racists are not going to give a gently caress about their racism until more white people start mocking them. Full stop.

Control Volume posted:More white people mocked white racists the entire leadup into this election and it ended in a trump victory that broke almost every polling model from how much of an upset it was, and all the personal ostracization I've seen as a third party to the conversation just leads to severing ties without a change in political stance. I've personally used mockery as more catharsis than anything and never considered it to progress anything other than my mental health. Saying its the only tool that works seems like a dubious claim when heavily increased usage of that tool didn't stop a trump victory. No. here is the loving problem. You are confusing "other whites mocked people for their racism (at all)" with what I am saying. Sam Bee and Seth Meyers and John Oliver calling people out Is not the same as white people voting down white supremacy unilaterally. that poo poo is on you

Something like that happened to me. I had issues as a teenager with anxiety and depression. Was diagnosed as having Oppositional Defiant Disorder and Borderline personality disorder. Later on I found another doctor. He said I was misdiagnosed and I had GAD, and probably bi-polar disorder. The difference between them? My new doctor has 3 black children of various ages and didn't jump the gun when getting to know me and my feelings, actions and problems.

Bannon is a literal white supremacist. You need to tell that person they he is a white supremacist and if they continue him and therefore white supremacy, you will cut them out of your life. When they continue to support a white supremacist you need to cut them the gently caress out of your life. Would you like to read that racist tree parable?

Here's another thing I hate, whites/liberals/etc keep saying "We've gotten through everything, we'll get from this" But what they don't understand or willfully ignore is that not all of us got through it. People were killed. And they will continue to be killed. Jut because the country "made it" and you exist doesn't mean that many people weren't lost. There's been a huge spike in violence. There will still be violence. This streak of white supremacy will only fester until it's crushed. And it must be crushed. Koalas March fucked around with this message at 00:41 on Nov 18, 2016 |

His mother said he was diagnosed bi-polar. He had an episode after his mom died and I'd guess this break was caused by the stress of Kim's robbery and working 24/7. It definitely seems like he was having a manic episode. And I am very familiar with those.

I was briefly a cheerleader at my (white) middle school but that was the closest i ever got to fitting on.
