I cannot imagine how surreal it must be to be a black activist tweeting shit like "hey X is racist, stop" and getting white people replies like "<3 you're so fucking valid you've been thru more than I will ever know!!"
Wh-? W- ... Hmm. Ok. You're... not wrong? :/

Honestly that is more baffling to me than the "well I've never done that so good for me" replies but both are.. hm.
I do see that you're trying to be sweet but nobody asked
They know you don't know shit??? You need to tell OTHER WHITE PPL that, not the ppl who already know lol

& to that point I seriously doubt any person of color wants or needs your validation unless they asked specifically
telling you to stop doing something racist isn't asking for validation. that's a separate convo. yes validate that racism is real.... To ppl who need to know??

hey and as a fellow whitey. u guys know it's ok to not say anything sometimes.... right?
Do you???? Do you know that???? Bc I think most of us don't

before you tweet:
- does this need to be said?
- does this need to be said by ME?
- does it need to be said by me RIGHT NOW?
If the answer to all 3 isn't yes, maybe don't

And listen I'm not confident at the moment about this thread but I do know I see an awful lot of "im a good whitey" comments on here and even I can't stand it. but if those activists say shit it'll turn into "they should just be grateful maybe I revoke my allyship what now"
