No, I'm pretty sure we're in the "No One Believes YOU phase", not your imaginary friend.

Are we sure you aren't white? 'Cuz I've got a #WhiteFragility bingo card that you're doing an awfully good job of covering squares on.

“The United States now faces a different kind of violence, from people who will tell you that they are for ‘liberty’ and ‘freedom,’ but these are merely code words for personal grudges, racial and class resentments, and a generalized paranoia that dark forces are manipulating their lives.”

What up with white people and the whole: my great grandmother wasn't white shit?

Man, you are SEVEN-EIGHTHS white.
Did you not learn about fractions or rounding in school?

How're you saying this shit with a straight face?
You do NOT get a free pass on your racist bullshit.

#WhiteFragility

Well.
All righty then.

• "White lives matter" is an old neo-nazi slogan

• "It's okay to be white" is a newer neo-nazi slogan

• "Try that in a small town" is a shitty pop-country™️ song by a suburban goober who ran off stage without warning the crowd in Vegas while a shooter killed 60 and injured at least 400.

•"Kill the white farmers" is not the title of the song in question sang at a SA political rally & needs more historical context to understand than any blue checks can afford to learn.

There are more than a handful of white power telegram channels using the first two slogans as their names.

Bruder, that's not dog-whistle crap.

Let's talk about some ways anti-Blackness manifests in Canada, shall we? 1/🧵

👀 ◾️ 👀 ◾️ 👀 ◾️👀

Yesterday's legal observer (LO) assignment was at the Parents of Black Children press conference in response to the deluge of anti-anti-racist statements and pushes in the wake of the suicide of #RichardBilkszto (click the hashtag for more/older info).

The coverage from the conference includes:

❝
A coalition of Black community organizations is calling on the province to reaffirm its commitment to anti-racism training in education and publicly denounce “attempts to undermine or halt these efforts” in the wake of the suicide of a former principal who claimed he was bullied during an anti-racism training session two years ago.

“There is an active campaign to villainize and undermine anti-racism work in this province,” said Idris Orughu, one of the speakers at Wednesday’s event at Queen’s Park, organized by more than a dozen Black community groups from across the GTA.

(or https://archive.is/hB638 archived Toronto Star article in case a paywall goes up);

Context from a CTV News piece:
❝
Richard Bilkszto, who worked on contract with the TDSB after his retirement in 2019, filed a lawsuit against the board in April, claiming that an anti-racism training session in 2021 and its aftermath destroyed his reputation.

Bilkszto claimed supervisors did not intervene and later retaliated against him when trainer Kike Ojo-Thompson allegedly implied he was racist and humiliated him in front of colleagues after he disagreed that Canada was more racist than the U.S.

A lawyer for Bilkszto said her client died by suicide in July.

"It is clear to us, that his death has been used as a rallying point for right-wing opponents to dismantle the necessary and imperative anti-racism work," community leader Idris Orughu said outside the legislature Wednesday.
Orughu called any attempts to link death to anti-racism education are "immoral and unethical".

None of the allegations in Bilkszto's suit have been proven in court.

The TDSB has hired a third party investigator to look into the circumstances around Bilkszto's death.

Turns out we don't have to wait for it.

Unsurprisingly, the fascists are flat out lying about what went down in the session and after.

I would like to have a rational and nuanced conversation about whatever the fuck is happening on the subject of #RichardBilkszto, but it's starting to look like even white people who should know better, don't actually.

It even has Kinsella (🤢) agreeing with Bernier (🖕🏾). #WhiteFragility is a hell of a drug.

Gotta say, his ties to a white supremacist org OUGHT to call into question his status as respected, but given what I'm watching, seems like maybe not.

(Glad to see my old #mushroomtwitter pals stand up to this shit, at least.)

The difference between #BirdChan and the #Fediverse has never seemed so pointed in seeing the hysteria over #WhitePrivilege because a man committed suicide over, what looks a LOT like "being talked back to" by a Black woman.

The claim that Canada is worse than the US in terms of racism is definitely up for debate. Not taking a moment to consider whether it might be true¹ before defensively declaring your (white) self the expert in racism was certainly a bold move.

And not even questioning why he felt entitled/obligated/EMPOWERED to do so: 🤦🏾‍♀️

Meanwhile:
Fediverse 🦗 🏏 🦗

¹ It's definitely different: much more covert than overt, and certainly structural af. I don't know that I would say "worse", but the narrative Canadian white people like to tell themselves is deeply problematic.

You can't fight what you refuse to even acknowledge.

Old white men are so entitled it’s not remotely funny. It would be if it didn’t lead to violence towards people. I idea these people think they’re the adults when their solution to everything is violence is insane #WhiteFragility

Gov Greg Abbott does not understand critical race theory, at all https://www.focusonthefamily.com/episodes/broadcast/a-conversation-with-governor-greg-abbott/

Governor Abbott: a key component of the teachings of Critical Race Theory is the antithesis of what God teaches. The antithesis of what the United States was founded upon. Because what it does is, is Critical Race Theory divides people on the basis of ...And it teaches the contrary of what Martin Luther King Jr. taught us. ...

On a surface level, I don't know what would make the blackmastodon hashtag "off-putting."

But on a deeper, more aware level, my guess is #whitefragility.

sorry that this didn't turn out as eloquent as I was aiming for, my family kept being loud so this was about my tenth time recording. Anyway, similar to white people so focused on declaring that THEY, PERSONALLY aren't racist, rather than discuss the systemic racism that can only be worked on when white people take their/our egos out of it, I see a similar derailment tactic whenever conversations of #toxicMasculinity #sexism #misogyny etc come up, of men forcing the conversation to be about them instead by loudly insisting "#notAllMen!! THEY aren't like that!" which, 1, doesn't prove anyone (whether you're racist, sexist, etc depends on your actions, not whether you declare yourself to be one...) and 2 does nothing to improve the problem itself. put your #whiteFragility / #maleFragility on hold, stop taking everything as a personal attack and listen to the affected marginalized people (again, especially People of Color) when they tell you the systemic problems that need to be worked on, and think of how you can help.
