Except in this case they were wrong.
They were then used as a bludgeon by someone NOT Indigenous who had a very specific agenda, but no one wants to talk about THAT.
I have experienced people trying to weaponize my Blackness against their enemies. They go hunting for someone whose marginalization can be proxied in a situation where they have privilege and it's DIS COS TING.
Do you honestly believe the person who amplified the mistaken intel had any actual interest in helping the mistaken PERSON achieve justice?
If you think "believing someone" means "screaming their story for malicious purposes" — and not, say, asking what THEY need and how you can help — then I'd be glad to have you never believe a damned thing I say.
Colonizing someone else's injustice is some nuclear level #WhiteNonsense.
Fascinated by the white women suddenly discovering systemic racism.
Let's just ignore the fact that the march was a #SearchtheLandFills action, I'm relatively lucky.
By the time I got to 55 division, I had @crockett swoop in to drop off a t-shirt and two more friends come sit with me.
One even leant her privilege by COMING INSIDE THE STATION with me, and we STILL DIDN'T get them to take the incident report, even after showing the video to the Desk Duty cop.

I've been telling people that these two need cameras on them the entire time they're on site at an action for what feels like years now, but in reality has only been many months.
They pretend to be "objective" (which is sheer #WhiteNonsense to begin with), while submitting only a fraction of the footage they shoot from any interaction.
Remember the discrepancy between my footage from Peterborough and hers? You can literally see when #CreepySpouseInDaHouse starts filming me. https://kolektiva.social/@Gigi/109690267032682091
Imagine my glee when someone shared with me a screenshot of her folder called "Narrative control".

Well.
All righty then.

AFL also highlights Kellogg’s Pride cereal, a limited-edition cereal released in October 2022, which was just rainbow heart-shaped cereal but with all the cereal mascots on the box. The complaint also cites drag queen RuPaul’s appearance on the Cheez-Its box in September and Tony the Tiger posing with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney at the Tony awards in June.

Harper's family has been in Canada a long time. I do think this family has developed a persona of Royalty.

Harper along with his other white nationalist cronies is one of the misguided white Canadians who believes simply because his family has been here for over 100 years it means he gets more say... #WhiteNonsense https://twitter.com/Theobius/status/1654506139533574144

@jonivy @TonyStark Jon gets today’s #WhiteNonsense award. Pretty privileged there to demand we tell what he thinks he’s entitled to.
@ricardoharvin @TonyStark @daylightatheism @CrazyBusyCreative So much white nonsense that people can pick up and move out of rights smashing states or that others should move into rights smashing states that it needs its own hashtag. #WhiteNonsense
Right up there with just get your books in the library or your kids some school online.
@BlackAzizAnansi i think it might help if more white and non-Black folks take some responsibility for reining in the #whiteNonsense from their followers and audiences when boosting BIPOC content
@sflorg @BlackAzizAnansi Hey, the first instance of #whitenonsense I’ve seen on Mastodon. That didn’t take long.
#blacktwitter #blackmastodon look Fam. The ONLY thing I put on top of my Mac n Cheese is more cheese. I know some of y'all put breadcrumbs. But cooking it the night before and putting potato chips on top is some #whitenonsense to me. I BAKE it last so it hits the table hot bubbly and gooey. #dontexperimentonthanksgiving
