Well... It was bound to happen i guess. I would have figured transphobia but angry racist was the first twitter like experience.

Thanks Mastadon. I'm off to enjoy a movie. Have a lovely day ;-)

@nonbinary *looks at convo* imho that wasn't a racist :/

@a_breakin_glass Well he certainly doesn't like white people lol. Not sure what you call that, We used to call it racist.

@nonbinary it's not even all white people, it's white americans and the fact the overwhelming majority upholds, conciously or unconciously, racial pwer structures

@a_breakin_glass Just so you know... I also don't run America.

I'm transgender. I've lost my career over it. I've endured life without civil rights people of color currently have.

Stop and think about who you're talking to. I'm not the problem, if anything.. I'm feeling the pain of inequality as well.

That's the funniest part about my situation perhaps here.

@nonbinary You have white privilege though, even as you experience oppression because you’re not cis. And as long as you fail to acknowledge the privilege you do have then I’m afraid you are part of the problem, just as I am.

Structural racism isn’t a conspiracy - it’s the sum of all the unthinking prejudices and assumptions we learn that make it easier to be white in our society.
