I really struggled with the concept and term of “liberal racism.” Mostly because the term seemed oxymoronic. You’re just a racist bitch. But I see it now.

White people/POC who manipulate identity politics, weaponize their second tier identity issues to play Oppression Olympics and silence people who are the actual targets of oppression are definitely engaged with liberal racism.

These are the same people who claimed BLM for twitter clout 10 years ago and still voted in a nazi. It’s real.

@ErickaSimone In my experience, folks that have the most hashtags and acronyms in their bios that denote progressive leanings are usually the least likely people to be actually progressive.

It’s usually all for show and just wanting to present a persona that doesn’t exist offline.

@are0h : OUCH!

(I just pinched in my arm and, unless I am a very good simulation, the pain doesn't appear to be all for show - and it very much feels like I'm a persona who does exist offline).

@ErikvanStraten @are0h something to make your life easier that I was taught as a child.

It’s not always about you. Sometimes, it has absolutely nothing to do with you. Like right now. Detach! 🙏🏾

@are0h biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitch. lol. The fucking weirdest.

@are0h @ErickaSimone Hell ya. Giving that “never had to lower attention from the police” vibe “because I’m not a criminal”. Having not lived through the police treating you like one just for your skin shade.

It’s like armchair football.
