Trying to discuss race with white people is like talking to a brick wall. I just tried to talk about racism and got fucking ganged up on by white people swearing that you can only be racist if you intend to be so they aren't racist as long as they mean well. It's so fucking entitled when white people start lecturing poc about what's really racist. God.

I've had so many of these experiences that i mostly refuse to engage nowadays, i can't be bothered. The amount of babying, coddling and you'reoneofthegoodones-ism they require is insane, i'd rather save my energy for conversations with people who aren't racists in denial.
