I don't want any comrades to self-harm, yes, even if they are white

Dang the alienating bit was rough, you hit a friendly on the way
Yeah, this reason is sorta why I think I'd prefer if white peoples didn't identify with it. It feels like there's still way more benefit than not in most situations for most people. Like white supremacy is still around so that systemic/broad benefit is still there.
What happens if people who are white 'reclaim' ??
Do we still use it or switch to like, using more? It doesn't really have the same ring to it.
When I see it on hexbear or like friends (I have a white friend dw; ok had and that's cuz I moved) I does not bother me, sometimes it comes out of the blue I think, but maybe that's me not paying attention.
I'm at an institution which is quite progressive (groups speak out against Isr--l killing Gazans (and uh, other people from Isr--l) and whenever profs or some upper year well-known students, academics or scholars do it, even the ones that are kinda based, I cringe hard and it's difficult to believe it's genuine and not finding another way to put the spotlight on themselves...
I like using been, I listened to a podcast where a linguist explained how versatile it was. If you shorten it that means it like happened in the past and it's continuing to happen and you say it with more like emphasis, maybe like more plosive like a 'P':
"He been playing Mario Kart 8. Mans can't put the joycon down!"
Like you are doing something now or started recently if you say it kinda neutral:
"Yeah, I been tryna find some piece to play, I just keep on playin' Chopin, boy's been havin' it since 1818 or something. Old man and it's been a while since he dead, but he wasn't ok with dyin' cuz he's been killin' it.
Maybe like sarcastically or when you lengthen it:
A: "You do your part of the assignment? I haven't started I went to see Speed since it was playing."
B: "You were watching a re-run of some old movie no one's heard? Well, I've been doing my homework, y'know, what was assigned and we agreed to do."
You gave me the worst dumbnet evil AI scenario. It's going to live rent-free in my head. I can't believe you've done this. /s
Wait why would there be litter boxes in classrooms? Why would they be allowed cats? Do people think that's how kids are getting
potential trigger i think
'feminized'?
This comment too, I hope it makes or helps me read Discipline and Punish. The only exposure I had to Foucault confused me and made me hurt myself in confusion so I decided to stay away...
What you wrote made it sound really interesting, here's hopin' I can read it sooner rather than later!
Second comment of yours I saved in this thread, keep up the good postin' cde!
Hey question, for it to be white-on-white racism, would you say there needs to be like some threshold of harm/hurt done? I'm thinking like a person thinking it's dumb and moving on probably wasn't what you were referring to.
