Everyday I find another reason to smile at her downfall. Settlers applies to POC as much as it does white people. (Some) Black Americans really think genocide isn't something to withhold a vote over.

This in addition to the "how do I report my neighbor for being an illegal immigrant/ I want to report a lady I know for getting an abortion" posts on reddit really shows the reality of blue MAGA.

How dare those ideological leftists put the genocide of Palestinians over the emancipatory policy of protecting black men’s crypto investments?

[–] BabyTurtles@hexbear.net 11 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Yo this is pretty insanely racist. Most black men don't have crypto investments, they just want to be allowed to walk and breathe without a trigger happy pig using them for target practice.

[–] GlueBear@hexbear.net 22 points 1 month ago (2 children)

It's an exaggeration. Kamala wouldn't have done anything for black men.

And black men voted for her. They're still scolding them.

[–] PKMKII@hexbear.net 24 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah no she ran on crypto for black men as a major policy platform for minority empowerment. She was explicitly campaigning towards the top 20% of minorities, income-wise.

It's already a less safe place for BIPOC in the US. I get it, status quo sucks, but it can and will get worse.

[–] GlueBear@hexbear.net 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It was always a death sentence to be BIPOC outside of the US because of US fp. Can't blame people for not caring as much, when there is a genocide being funded by the "lesser evil."

I don't care what happens to USians, as far as I'm concerned they did it to themselves and they still deserve worse.

[–] BabyTurtles@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

How did BIPOC do it to themselves when they were either here first and had their land stolen from them, or were forcibly shipped over against their will, and had little to no rights until very recently, and still have generations of oppression to overcome.

Because they will agree that the things the US does abroad is okay or even good, you dont get a pass for being a working class traitor just because ur skin is a different color

[–] FunkYankkkees@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This is exactly what I was talking about in the em_poc megathread. USAmericans insist those of us from the global south must have solidarity with the people who supported and were part of the invasion of our countries because they are also oppressed minorities

[–] GlueBear@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago

It's stupid and evil. Like no idgaf that you're oppressed, your shit ass country is butchering my people in their own homes with drones and missiles.

Really giving 'black (free and slave owning) Haitians that supported France during the eve of the Haitian revolution' energy.

I have not met a single BIPOC individual who supports America's foreign policy, have you?

[–] BabyTurtles@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That's really weird, do you live in a super conservative area that happens to have black and indigenous people that talk foreign policy to people very quickly after meeting them?

I live in a very diverse, working class, mostly leftist area, all of my friendship circles are extremely critical of America's foreign policy.

Why is your local community so pro-Imperialism?

[–] Mokey2@hexbear.net 6 points 1 month ago

I work and I meet all sorts of people, I'm not going to argue with you

Kamala Harris literally campaigned on maintaining the US's status as the most lethal military in the world

[–] BabyTurtles@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I haven't met Kamala Harris. If you use one establishment Democrat to inform your opinion of all black people, you're probably going to end up inexcusably ignorant.

The cure is ignorance is fostering friendships with people on a personal level, listen with the intent of understanding their struggle. Leftist spaces are not doing a good enough job of giving black voices a space and y'all are using Kamala as your excuse to keep it that way.

[–] casskaydee@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago

I've worked with countless BIPOC people who were proud members of the US military

USAmericans are not "all black people"

[–] BabyTurtles@hexbear.net 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You are right, I was wrong, I should have said "all black Americans".

You don't have to deal with internalized racism because you could put out a good dunk instead.

[–] FunkYankkkees@hexbear.net 1 points 1 month ago

Correcting USAmerican centrism is not a "dunk"

[–] miz@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

the Harris campaign tried to appeal to black men via crypto
