heritageposts repeatedly bitching about people being "mask off" is really really really ironic for all the obvious reasons

I was busy when I got the notif you replied and then I totally forgot about it, sorry it took so long to reply!
Hate is far and wide depending on how people were taught to hate. It's sad to see in places youd think people would understand how it feels to be hated i.e.: the transphobia in the lgbT -yes, even the T-. (I dont feel I have the place to talk about racism as I have never experienced it towards me and truly do not know how it feels. I only know how my friends react and how it affects them and how seeing that angers me because someone hurt them.) I dont understand how anybody could hate others going through some of the same struggles, even if it is taught.
I have an open mind and am always willing to listen and learn; so long as people arent rude to me and reblogging (without reply to where they have reblogged it) rude replies as like the spongebob "meme" using the r word. And the one talking about me wanting somebody to fuck me. I'm not a r/niceguy lmao
That is understandable. I was heated too. And I understand the frustration to a certain point of being thrown under a blanket. I have friends from Haiti and friends from Jamaica, and my soon to be brother-in-law is from Puerto Rico. Their culture, attitudes, language, body language, food, everything, is different from each other and its beautiful. I am currently trying to learn Spanish to be able to talk with my brother's fiancee. It's hard only having 5th-8th grade (US) knowledge of the Spanish language (I tried signing up every year of high school for Spanish but never got it). He also helps me learn "slang" as not all Spanish speaking countries are the same.
Thank you for your concern, you really seem like a lovely person. It's not so much as me feeling bad about being white, it's more of a "I know I have this privilege, how can I use it to bring up topics that need talking about because nobody is listening to the concerns?" and even "How can I help others who need help?" I am very empathetic, and can pick up other people's emotions. I'm glad you found yourself out of that hole. I have had similar experience with my gender identity and my sexuality.
I am hella gay and also nonbinary so I'm used to malicious comments. It doesnt bother me as much as it would have about 12 years ago. I was always the kid to be picked on and bullied until one day I yanked my bully (who kept "sharpening his pencil" just so he could slam my mac laptop screen down on my hands as I was working. The old ones were heavy af and it hurt) over my desk and put him on the floor. After that I was left alone, but 7 years of bullying had done its damage already. (Literally my first day of kindergarten (first school you attend in the US) I was poked in the eye and called fat on the bus.
As far as I can see, you've used the correct ones (he/him. I also will take they/them) so it's all good.
You're welcome, and thank you for also teaching me. I always try to listen and learn and I do love learning new things. Especially if I can better myself with the new knowledge I have obtained.
I hope Facebook gets itself together and stops defending those in the wrong and jailing the ones who stand up to them.
I'd like to thank you for being civil and kind. Some words were a bit harsh, but not as bad as a few of the others I have gotten. I wish you nothing but the best for 2020.
Facebook is racist
Here is the PROOF:
Tumblr media
ALL I DID WAS CALL OUT THE RACISTS IN A COMMENT SECTION.
How fuckin d a r e I call out white people for being blatant racists. How DARE I stick up for black people! HOW DARE I NOT ALSO BE RACIST.
This isnt my first time being in Facebook jail for sticking up for people of color. It wont be the last. I’ve been thrown in for calling out sexists, homophobes, and transphobes. HOW D A R E I stick up for minority groups.
