white people will literally be like if u arent nice to me Im going to become a nazi. and think they’re making a great argument

this stupid shit has been around for so long and it’s crazy to me there are still people with enough rocks in their brain to believe it. “Oughhhhh if you aren’t nice to you oppressors they’ll become bigots instead of allies” if someone’s support for marginalized groups hinges entirely on whether or not that group is niceys, they’re by definition not effective or useful allies and, by admission of this argument, an active danger to the communities theyre supposed to be allied with because they can Enter Bigot Mode the second they become displease

And the bit is, you were NOT down so bad, nor felt your life so threatened, that you felt safe enough to hunt a Black child down and shoot him in the back over a BOTTLE OF WATER. Something that's worth a buck fifty. Something that shit, maybe he needed. He didn't steal anything, but even if he HAD stolen that water, it's WATER. It's not something of mass expense. If I saw someone stealing one singular bottle of water, I'm probably not stopping them, because damn it is hot and you might be in need at that point. That's how I know that shit was racially motivated. They felt like hunting a Negro due to other unaddressed rage and antiblack bias, I will not be convinced otherwise. And I hope it comes around full circle.

you solve the mystery of what to have for dinner one night and you think "hell yeah case closed forever" WRONG there is a dinner mystery the next night too

you have permission to pick that 2 year old "abandoned" project back up. it's not mad at you for setting it aside. and maybe time and distance have helped ease or erase the things that made you put it down in the first place.

once you realize you don’t actually need to sleep, you can really (stops talking abruptly and stares straight ahead for 4 minutes)
