Come, vent, chat meme a little. How was everyone’s Easter weekend? I had a uncomfortable but fine dinner with estranged relatives. I’m going to start posting the POC weekly threads on Mondays now.

    I just checked that thread again, and damn, I got out called out by the resident cracker who constantly malds about the word “cracker” but he didn’t bother tagging me like the coward he is lmao. If you check his history, it’s very obvious he has a problem with people who aren’t white, and he only gets away with it because Hexbear is too white and a lot of his bullshit flies under the radar of most white people.

    But he’s an afterthought that barely merits real attention. The actual people I don’t feel comfortable about are the white trans people who said, “I do the same with cis people too.” Look, Angel is also trans, and if they wanted to make a point about not trusting cis progressives in the same way, Angel would’ve done so. But they didn’t. It’s just another way for white people to make everything be about themselves.

      What gets me is if you’re talking about who I think you’re talking about, he totally curved anything I had to say. I deliberately addressed him and he’d have rather responded to the guy who responded to me rather than me directly like he’s one of these .works crackers; shit’s honestly sickening.

        And he’s still curving me to this day-- I’m beginning to think ol boy has a problem with Black folk and Black views. The type of cracker to only want you around if you’re willing to pledge 100% uncritical assimilationism, fucking disgusting

      If you talk about someone behind their back on Hexbear (without tagging them) then that’s fucking rude and should at least net you a warning or temp-ban, imho.
