the reason slayyyter was like that as teen is bc the other white adults in her parents' life didn't hold them accountable & that behavior was then learned by their child and went uncorrected. and then before you know it, here we are.

the thing is if we as grown white ppl WERE calling out other grown white ppl on their racist tendencies to the proper extent, there wouldnt be kids learning & doing & saying racist shit to even be held accountable for when they're older in the first place. its all very cyclical
at the end of the day, we all live in a bigoted world and are subconsciously taught biases that form prejudice of race, gender, sexuality, etc.
we all gotta do the work personally to address those biases and become better people and that’s all we can ask for.
shout out to @LDK060606, he was cooking me in the original thread 😭
we ended up having a really good, productive conversation about the situation in private, where we were pretty much agreed on everything.
nixon has a decent shot of making florida blue again
Today, I’m honored to share that President Obama is supporting our campaign for the U.S. Senate.
President @BarackObama & I both started as organizers in our communities, because we immediately understood that real changes come from regular folks joining the fight.

Marginalized people don't owe forgiveness to anyone who used to be bigoted against them but change in ideology is possible in both ways. See the flip side, some privileged weak-minded leftists can grow conservative & bigoted, you wouldn't say "once a leftist, always a leftist"
