i fucking hate the term "BIPOC". its so fucking american. shocker, black and indigenous people are POC and turning the term "poc" into a term that oh so woefully doesnt account for what is essentially american exceptionalism and purely american centric perceptions of race boils my fucking blood.

#most countries dont have clearly defined concepts of race. america does because they imported slaves from a specific region of africa.#so obviously they see black as one specialized race. but in most of the global south #race is an entirely obsolete concept because theres no clearly defined borders like slave importers had.#besides that america also stole their land from indigenous people. another specialized race to them.#the rest of non-white people in america dont matter because theyre all micro-minorities to the white american.#ehh. theyre all the same to us! har har. strange ethnic people amiright #so they get a taste of the rest of the worlds race-categorization n realize how obsolete it is. which is why the rest of us are just “poc”.#its american exceptionalism. the idea that americans are the only people right about race categorization.#bipoc #poc #- ns
