Why I'm asking #WhitePeople to understand how #BIPOC have to deal with relentless requests for more #EmotionalLabor on almost a daily basis in almost every area of our lives.
We're really exhausted from this. We need more white folks who will take ongoing heavy burdens off our backs. Start having those difficult #conversations with your fellow white folks & understand genuine #AntiRacism work requires #courage to talk to & #educate the white folks in your circles.
If you're a radical leftie & able to act in character - you can infiltrate far right groups without too much extra efforts. They're not too bright & they don't have as much public support as they want. They LOVE it when any POC can be #tokenized. They hate #BIPOC but will definitely exploit any BIPOC who are foolish enough to volunteer to stand beside bigots who would kill them, if they couldn't be tokenized for WS needs. I've infiltrated more than once & got several local BC fascists arrested.
One guy threatened to shoot me, after finding out I infiltrated his freedumb racist plans & had him & his equally racist wife arrested. So he got additional charges for death threats. Bigots & racists are not very bright.
These were racist folks who had a back the blue flags on their trucks. They weren't too happy when their blue boys came to detain their racist asses though 🤡
Just figured I'd let you know that I (and by extension the rest of the Tech Talk Thursday crew) have been nominated for a BIPOC Streamer Award in the Chatterbox category!

I just did a post on #Bluesky pointing out that the #A11y issues that impact screen reader users it’s had since Day One and the message we're getting from their developers is we aren't welcome there. This is particularly interesting as more and more accounts from Twitter, all of which concerned with human rights in some way, are going over there. Blind people may be slowly bweing left in the dark, particularly for info surrounding #BIPOC, #LGBTQIA! and #PopCulture matters. (1/2)
@changeling have you tried any of the third-party apps available for #Bluesky? I'm using Skeets on iOS, the dev's been very responsive to any #Accessibility concerns I've brought up. But yes, the official site and app could really use some work and it's disappointing the folks behind them aren't making that a priority.
The Dong family shared with #NBCNews that they will be donating $5 million to #Black#CollegeStudents around the U.S. — a donation that will be funded by the sale of their home in Coronado, #California, which they say they obtained in 1939 thanks to a Black entrepreneurial couple in the city.

I will be supporting the federal #NDP at next elections because I can't forgive #Trudeau over #Gaza#Palestine & can't get over #ForkedTongue on several other issues that are very important to me & many #Canadian#BIPOC voters
I don't even like NDP either but it's them or covert WS dude with a pretty face or full out fascist fuckers. Unlike USA - with no real decent election choices between racist sellouts - we still have some options in #Canada.
@msquebanh White guy here. I have been saying this for DECADES. Although I have not made it as high a priority for voting as I should have, obviously. But since Oct 10th or so, that has changed.
@msquebanh About 10 years ago I remember needing Hanukkah candles. My family still has live Christmas trees, with actual candles on it. Christmas candles are no longer a thing, but Hanukkah candles are, so I bought some. I almost didn't, because I couldn't find any not made in Israel, and I couldn't stomach what settlers were doing to the West Bank.
