Asking where to find POC spaces on Reddit was the biggest mistake I’ve made. (beehaw.org)

So I’ve practically argued up and down the thread, but after several panic attacks I’m one foot out of the door with Reddit but hesitant to leave as there are communities I enjoy there that I don’t think moved to Lemmy. The question was asked on my city’s subreddit and I had people try to frame me into being a racist, mock my trauma with white people, and try to minimize the effects of racism that follow us all in the current day. I’m tired, man.

I know not all white folks are bad but some are making me wish to not interact with them at all. I’m sorry.

Yeah it happens. There's a reason a lot of people left reddit and came to sites like this. It just isn't the same site we used to use. Another thought I had was maybe to ask here or in one of the generic ask or chat communities. Who knows? Maybe you'll get lucky.

I hope you find what you're looking for.
