Okay, this is a thread about raceplay and kink.

If you don't know what that is ...you're lucky (and also, I apologise for introducing it).

It's where people take racist tropes, lean in and re-enact them as a 'kink'. It's racism packaged for white consumption.
If it wasn't obvious, I'm completely against raceplay in a way that I'm not completely against other forms of taboo play.

Raceplay can never truly stand apart from reality when we live under white supremacy. People can try 'play' with RP but afterwards, when you leave the
house, Black people will continue to be abused, lynched and incarcerated.

As someone also in SW circles, I can also tell you: it's really incredibly common.

Gonna continue this thread as a Q&A on this.
