Yesterday I had to block over 100 WP who sing in a choir named “Not All White People”. Can some W person please explain to me why WP defend themselves about things they don’t feel, or do? It’s irrational to me, and I can’t grasp that thought process. Is it guilt?
I ask them why they are defending themselves about something they didn’t do or feel, and they never answer the question. I hope at that moment they’re self analysing that. I blocked more today on that thread, and those who liked their tweets. It’s really exhausting to do that.
The other thing that irks me is how mad WP get if they feel generalized, but never take into account, that WP around the world have done just that to Black people, for centuries. There is no path forward for us as long as WP are this fragile, and defensive.
These are great pints, so I screenshot and placed in the OT. I don’t want these explanations to be missed either.
