"listen to poc" isn& #39;t bc every single poc has a magical, indescribable inherent accuracy to them, it& #39;s just that historically the impulse has been to disregard poc viewpoints altogether

that& #39;s what i wish i had said to a certain set of prominent whites whose fans were fucking with me recently and who had basically no idea how race or racism work. yes i& #39;m still sort of thinking about that, SORRY

can& #39;t believe someone tried to tell me something wasn& #39;t racially problematic because george takei supported it. the man& #39;s had a hell of a life but you don& #39;t think he has the ability to be ignorant to race sometimes? he& #39;s asian, lol

speaking as a cis straight light skinned east asian man, i feel comfortable saying that even an older gayer version of me would absolutely still be racially incompetent every once in a while. that& #39;s just how being what i am is

people who are in it because they& #39;re in it know this, which is why i think if george and i had a(nother!) conversation he& #39;d understand. it& #39;s only if you solely care about ego that you& #39;re gonna get pissed for being called in
