it's happened at least twice now that cohost has a big race discourse and then some white person decides to go around to every person of color they come across like "um, hi, can you please supply me with the correct discourse opinions, or else?" i'm not pinning this one on the collective whiteness of this site in particular because it happens all the time on tumblr but it is nevertheless very funny to me. "mommy? mommy? sorry. mommy?" but for asking if you're not racist
I think a lot of white people just have very little experience with engaging with like... intentional analysis? Like idk, if you have to ask what are the right opinions to have instead of PoC voices informing your own maybe you don't actually give a shit about us and just care about if you could be called racist or not?
