Come on BB Commentariat, we’re better than this.
The majority of this thread seems to be:
- White people denying there’s a problem here, no matter how small
- White people debating the nuance with each other
- @Melizmatic having to go around the room re-explaining the basics of racism to everyone.
An issue like this is the perfect time for white people (like me) to shut up and listen. You say yellow emoji are a problem? Thank you, I didn’t realize. Stop using white fist icons because of what it says right now? No problem- thanks for the heads-up.
This has been your friendly reminder that the non-oppressed group doesn’t get to decide what is oppression and what isn’t. Now I’ll stop talking too so I can learn more.
