i want to thank witches.live anna for providing everyone with a textbook example of DARVO. it's a great service she's providing, showing everyone exactly what this technique of abusers, gaslighters, and general assholes looks like.

i wish we could attempt to have conversations about racism on fedi without it turning into "what did anna do this time", which turns into anna defending herself, which turns into it becoming about anna, again,
Moneybegging
I am still in a tight financial spot right now, and I need money for transportation.
I need money to help me reach the LGBT meet-up I attend once-a-month on Tuesday, and then I will need money to help me make it to my therapist appointment on Thursday.
I need $45 for both trips, so a total of $90 altogether. I already got $10, but I haven't received anything else.
Please help me out if you can:

Meta, racism, thread
This is what white bias does. Tells POC theyre wrong/they misinterpreted/and why are you so prickly anyway.
The PV and MyAss users have every fucking right to be prickly, because you can say "im a leftist" till you're blue in the face, but if you don't support POC and give WP chance after to chance to hurt them, you're not.
You're not an ally. Youre not for racial justice or equality or any of that. Youre for yourself and your comfort.

I was gonna let this go, but fuck it.
My work brings me into contact with POC every single day. That is why this shit is so frustrating and maddening to me. Because there is absolutely no reason to be giving a WW the benefit of the doubt over 2 whole instances full of POC who are telling you over and over their lived experience. Yall wanna be "believe women" and BLM, but only when it doesnt make you uncomfortable
The answer is neither.
You don't want us to screenshot dunk.
You don't want us to have the screens.
You don't want us to be able to prove shit.
Because you want to be able to squash us by either appealing to morals (because they are screenshot dunking me) or logcikkkkk (because they have no proof)
You want us to shut up and accept being insulted and dunked on.
And the answer for you is that you need to shut the fuck up
homophobia
@avi this is a straw argument
Trans, guy of center, well over 18.
