someone else on here aptly brought up that their understanding of afropessimism is that in order for true and complete justice to be brought for black ppl the entirety of our way of living would have to be undone and most yt ppl would be baffled to even hear that
"u guys are being really dishonest" yea ok

No shade 😭 You need to stop listening to people's criticism about this because they're very clearly trying to push you to recreate the non existent 4Chan image they have in their head. Her jawline and forehead were already accurate in the original.

somehow white ppl learned that intersectionality means that all forms of oppression are essentially equal to each other, which is very much not how it works!
we collectively need to stop closely engaging with this account they obviously dont give a flying fuck about black people and are only interested in playing god by dismissing and refuting every single thing we have to say

Acknowledging racism’s structural primacy in modernity is not an assertion of moral chauvinism. It is an empirical & historical claim about how political power, state structures, & social systems were constructed in REALITY. Nobody cares how you FEEL. It’s a structural analysis.
look at this person's replies... no one defending her actions has good intentions

This subject will never be honest. theres no nuance. everyone thinks that their suffering has to be the greatest. The truth is racism defined the entire world, not just America & took hundreds of millions of lives. Literally, nothing in history has ever been seen like it
and this is why i forever look at white people who love to use and throw around the terms "tweaker" and "ghetto" sideways.

I remember when I learned how crack infiltrated African American communities via CIA. How overnight folks saw their neighbors strung out and families displayed. That’s why I can never make jokes or laugh about folks using crack because that history is so violent.

it isn't really true that they don't recognize it; they do—it just get reorganized and mystified because they derive pleasure from it and can't really make sense of why.
everyone made fun of jane remover for very obviously having a blaccent and mimicking black american vernacular just for all of that Scene to be doing the exact same thing so its obvious yall didnt care in the first place
