Remember, EM POC only!

Just brewed up the coffee, feeling like a doomer, but at least I’m about to be a caffeinated one.

How are all my fellow EM POC comrades doing?

    Picture of the average whitey when left alone with their thoughts:

    It does seem like they’re addicted to outrage. Conservatives are constantly finding things to get upset over, but even libs will glue themselves to the screen looking at Trump’s antics. I don’t understand it. It’s too exhausting to constantly plug yourself into the outrage machine. Like go watch a movie or something.

    I think the outrage culture probably exists among EMPOCs, though I’m struggling to think of any examples.

      Like go watch a movie or something.

      Can’t even do that because now they’ll even lose their minds for the most minimal repesentation of anything other than CIS white people.

        I remember the IMDB message board would always be filled with chuds losing their shit any time a movie had anything other than white cishet straight men.

        There’s a movie called “The Invitation” and it takes place in LA. A bunch of people were in the message boards complaining about diversity within the cast and I’m just like “That’s a pretty typical friend group when you live in a city with over 1 million people?”

      …aaaaaaand I ate a ban from chapo for pointing out settler ideological fascist gun fantasies. Whitey got mad and used his mod powers to nuke my comments. Which admin do I talk to about that?

      They were doing the thing where they made up a scenario, freaked out about the thing they just made up, then got mad when this was pointed out.
