(BIG NOTE! : In the first draft, I thought that the author said "ACAB!" not "AFAB!" Sorry, the words looked extremely similar and I was having a hard time seeing it since it was early when I wrote this. Sorry!)

1. Real BLM support other BLM supporters. Not fake BLM that aren’t even black and supported blackface and uses bigoted stereotypes as a substitute for “comedy” like Vivziepop. (The evidence is in the past post im not going to repeat myself.) If you actually supported us, you wouldn’t automatically assume that she’s “innocent” just because of word of mouth or out of context screenshots from people who did little to no research.

2. True BLM doesn’t deny evidence of racism and play the victim while supporting racists just because they make you cartoon fetish porn.

3. REAL BLM doesn’t go “BU BU BU if you confront someone you’re a harasser!” (Wtf happened to fighting the system?! True BLM doesn’t kiss the feet of bigots like this. You’re clearly just another “PICK ME!” hiding behind bigots out of fear, to benefit off their platforms, and using our labels to get clout off of blm while doing so. -and i’d have full sympathy for said fear, if “PICK ME’S!” weren’t some of the most bigoted people known to man.) or use irl harassment towards innocent people as a strawman argument to support people with blatant anti- blackness that supported blackface and tried to hide the evidence of it, while being supposedly “anti harassment” people that harass other fans, including having harassed many black lives, as a meat shield to hide behind.

Sick of all you “PICK ME!” folk who support racist creators, same for people who supported the looting or the rioting while making the rest of BLM miserable and getting in the way of progress by destroying black communities.

Vivziepop isn’t trans.

Vivziepop isn’t NB, in fact if you actually read the post instead of being stubborn and supporting her anyway just because she makes cartoon porn that you watch- she’s transphobic!

Vivziepop isn’t black. Supporting her and trusting her word of mouth to get clout off of her twitter level “progressiveness!” or because you benefit off of her cartoon softcore yaoi porn instead of actually caring about the black lives around you is just sickening. True BLM don’t support racists over cartoon porn or to get clout off of their channel. True BLM SUPPORT EACH OTHER! Not non-black racist people!

Also- Rebecca Sugar is a white passing person that had porn of literal kids! What’s with you and supporting white passing people instead of black folk?! Your entire argument just mentioned white passing or white people while vagueing about other blm members as a strawman excuse to support bigots when the evidence is so easy to find, the fact that you pulled this “I do my research!” crap and victimized yourself, blocked me, deleted the replies from people telling you to stop supporting racists is just sad to watch. So trying to use the violence ACAB and trans folk go through on a daily basis as a strawman to supported bigoted (not even black OR trans!) people to benefit yourself-

Makes this post entirely fake. Vivziepop is not BLM, she’s not black, she’s not trans, and she’s a privileged white passing woman that treats us like crap by hiding anti-blackness within her content, so the fact that you tried to play these games and denied/didn’t even try to look into the evidence just because you want to keep benefitting off of her is sickening.

Stop claiming to be BLM while supporting anti-blackness!

Im not even going to link anything since the evidence is literally on the post this person blocked me over after people started to share the evidence of what Vivziepop actually did. It’s on the other post, and im not going to waste my time giving people like this anymore attention since i’d just be repeating myself.

((I came up with this after watching the Smosh video a couple weeks ago. This is crack and not meant to be taken seriously.))

Felix and Pepa sat on the couch in the living room, giggling and kissing each other after coming home from a date. They assumed they were home alone, so they decided to hang out in the living room and have their private time together.

“I had so much fun, Felix! I hope to do it again sometime!” Pepa giggled as Felix moved her closer to him.

“We still have some time to have some more fun,” Felix replied as he moved closer to Pepa and began to kiss her.

The couple tasted each other’s lips as Pepa wrapped her arms around Felix’s neck and he wrapped his arms around her waist. Felix pushed Pepa on the couch as they continued to kiss each other. But before they could go any further, Bruno burst into the living room, interrupting their session and startling them.

“PEPA! FELIX! You would not believe what I just found!”

Pepa began to thunder as she got up from the couch. “I thought you weren’t going to be home until late!”

“Plans changed. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you earlier. But I found this weird story that I need the two of you to hear. I already lost most of my brain cells reading it!”

“...And you want us to lose brain cells with you because…?”

“Because this is something you both can see the stupidity in more than I can. It’s called “I Am Sad That My Child Isn’t Dark Skinned.”

That was when Pepa and Felix’s curiosity got the best of them. They sprang up from the couch and made their way to the office with Bruno. He opened the story on the family computer for them to see, but Bruno decided to read it out loud to them as Pepa and Felix sat on the open chair next to the desk.

“Throwaway account. I know I am going to sound horrible, but I finally need to tell someone. I have been feeling like this for more than four years. I am a white man, who is married to a black woman. I always knew I would marry a black woman, because that’s the only ‘type’ of woman I am attracted to.”

Pepa and Felix looked at each other with a somewhat disgusted look on their faces. “The only type of woman they’re attracted to!?” Felix said in disbelief.

“This is only like the first sentence and it’s already off to a bad start,” Pepa added.

“Then you’re in for a treat,” Bruno said before he continued reading. “I met my beautiful, wonderful, intelligent wife. We dated for five years before getting married. I love my wife, nine years together and I am still so in love. We have a four-year-old son. When she gave birth, he was white. But aren’t all babies?”

Pepa and Felix could not help but laugh at the last sentence as Bruno paused to let them. “That’s probably the stupidest thing I’ve heard all this week!” Pepa blurted out.

“I can only imagine how stupid the rest of this post is going to be,” Felix added.

Bruno continued to read the post. “But the months passed, and his color didn’t change. Now he is four and he looks just like me. With blue eyes, blonde hair and his hair isn’t even curly or afro. He looks like a little white boy.”

“You wouldn’t be upset if we had a kid and they looked more like you than me, right, Pepi?” Felix asked after a brief pause.

“Absolutely not! Our children will be beautiful no matter which one of us they look like.”

“Even if they don’t look like either of us?” Felix joked.

Pepa gave her boyfriend a glare. “I wouldn’t push it that far.”

Bruno continued reading the story. “My wife often gets upset because people assume she is babysitting, or that she is the step-mom. I try to comfort her as much as I can. I pretend I am so happy he looks like me. But the truth is that I am gutted. When she was pregnant, I envisioned a black/brown skinned kid. I was excited to share ‘black culture’ with him. I am into things that can be classified stereotypically as ‘black’. And so is my wife.”

“The fact that he said he called that kind of stuff ‘stereotypically black’ things, I’m lost already,” Felix interrupted.

“The other day, she bought him a black doll. I asked her what the point was since he looks white. She just said to me ‘He looks white, but he isn’t and I want him to be part of my culture, his culture’,” Bruno continued reading.

“Why would you be upset because your wife bought your son a black doll!? Just because he doesn’t look black doesn’t mean you can’t buy him a black doll!” Pepa said.

“Besides, even if both of the parents were white, why would buying your child a black doll be an issue!?” Felix added.

“I have NEVER said anything to anyone, or treated him as if he wasn't my son. I love him. I wouldn’t trade him for any mixed toddler. But I still have this feeling that I wish, when I took him to his appointments, outside in the park, people would just see that he is not one hundred percent white.”

“He probably thought about trading his son at some point, though,” Pepa snarked as Felix and Bruno could not help but laugh.

“Look, I would not trade my son for a mixed toddler, but I thought about it many times in his life,” Felix said, attempting to imitate the original poster. Pepa and Bruno continued to laugh before Bruno could finish reading the story.

“My wife wants another baby, but I have been saying no, because I am scared baby number two will also be white.” 

Pepa and Felix laughed again. The fact that someone did not want to have another child because he was scared it was going to look white was enough for them and Bruno to burst into so much laughter that they felt like the entire Encanto could hear them.

“So if they do have another child and the second child ends up being white, will he actually disown them?” Felix asked as Pepa continued laughing.

“Maybe him not wanting another child is a blessing because that will mean one less child will be disowned by their parents,” Pepa replied, still laughing.

“There’s an edit to the post, so there’s more,” Bruno said before he read the edit. “Since some of you cannot understand what you are reading, this only describes my feelings, NOT my wife’s feelings. She and her family have no problem with our son’s skin/hair color. Her labor was so awful, that she is just happy she is just doing fine, and is there for her son. Yes she gets upset at the strangers’ comments. You’d be surprised how many strangers open their mouths like ‘did they give you the wrong kid… take a DNA test… check if there was a black kid born that day… where’s the mom… ma’am I need to see an ID to check if this is really your son… Hey, kiddo, do you know this woman’ etc. etc. Even my own family ‘Oh he had the good genes’. Of course she is going to be hurt. But she never ever expressed or showed any resentments. I am only talking about myself. I have never discussed this issue with my wife. Because I am afraid she would leave me or at least be super upset and mad at me.”

“She should leave him,” Pepa said.

“Everything about that post just screamed ‘fetishize’ to me. I lost at least five brain cells just from you reading that to me,” Felix added.

“I’m sorry, chicos, but I found this so funny and wrong that I had to share it with you,” Bruno replied.

“Felix, didn’t you date someone when we were in high school that thought the exact same way?” Pepa asked.

“I did. I remember her saying that I was ‘physically her type’ and I knew exactly what she meant. She only dated black men prior and even after we dated. It was one of the weirdest dating experiences I ever had.”

“I probably would have been just as annoyed, if not more, if I was in the same situation. I don’t understand how anyone could have that mindset.”

“I actually want to read some of the comments now.”

“I can read some of them for you,” Bruno said before he began reading. “It’s so funny how he wanted to experience blackness through his son. He has a black fetish, married a black woman, has a biracial son but is disappointed his appearance might not give him access to some aspects of blackness and by extension neither can he. What a world!”

“That is true!” said Pepa.

“I’m just still caught on the fact that he wants to share ‘black culture’ with his son but he didn’t want his wife to buy him a black doll because it didn’t look like him,” Felix added.

“Another comment says ‘I wonder if his wife knows about his fetishization of her skin color’,” Bruno read from the post. “And there’s a response to it that says ‘Extremely doubtful, as he mentioned he didn’t tell his wife his feelings about his child’.”

“I’m actually scared his wife is going to find out from this post,” Felix commented.

“I’m even more scared that his child is going to find this post when he grows up and ask his dad if he never loved him,” Pepa added.

“There is a high chance that’s going to happen. Everybody can find everything from everyone these days,” Bruno mentioned.

“And that’s exactly why I’m terrified for this child when he’s older.”

“Can we read one more comment before we go upstairs?” Felix asked.

“Okay; here’s one more that I feel like would hit Pepa pretty hard,” Bruno answered before he began to read the comment. “What he isn’t getting is that the child is mixed, regardless of what his skin color is. He has just as much chance of passing on his mother’s genes when he has kids, as he does his father’s. I remember this one Maury episode, the father didn’t believe the child was his, because the baby was ‘white’, both parents were ‘black’. The child was his. Genetics are interesting and something that has been recessive for generations, can pop up.”

Pepa could not help but pause at that comment. So many things were going on in her head that she did not know what to say next. All she could think about was all those times people asked if she was adopted or comments wondering if Alma cheated on Pedro which was why Pepa was ginger. It took a while for her to put her thoughts together, but she then was able to talk after organizing them.

“This did hit me as much as you said, Bruno. I’ll never forget about when we were children and all the other kids in our class would make comments about how I wasn’t actually your or Julieta’s sister because I didn’t have the same skin tone or hair color as you guys.”

“And Julieta would be the one to constantly tell them that we’re triplets and came out of the same womb?”

“Exactly. And how people would assume we had a different father because of that since I looked like neither mama nor papa.”

“Those guys were absolute cabrons. Genetics really are interesting, like the commenter said, and you looking the way you do can be a combination of so many genetics from your family,” Felix added.

“That reminds me of that time when we were teenagers when you asked mama about papa and why you didn’t look like either of them while Julieta and I did, and mama showed a whole photo album of our family tree and it showed several great-grandparents that looked just like you,” Bruno explained.

“It did make me realize that I really was a Madrigal, and mama showed a couple of pictures of her when she was younger, and how I had a similar smile, nose shape, and face shape to her and papi’s eye shape.”

Felix grabbed Pepa’s arm and signaled Bruno to let them know they were going upstairs. Bruno gave them the thumbs up and Pepa and Felix made their way to her room as Bruno sat back down to read more weird internet stories.

cant believe jkr created a prison that forces you to relive all of your worst memories, put a fairly major character in that prison for twelve years without a trial, and then just... didnt make it a commentary on the justice system OR the prison system. just like "lol thats a quirky thing that happened just for plot reasons, no bearing on reality tho"

As a yt passing Native myself, some of you are really pushing the line and are way too close to saying "those meanie darker Natives always bully and oppress us!!" when speaking about how yt passing natives CAN be treated. There's a fine line between calling out an issue in the community and acting more oppressed than our browner people.

Before anyone starts, white passing privilege is not white privilege. We are still Indigenous, we just have different experiences. We are less likely to be verbally harassed/called slurs, assualted or killed, and it is actually really important to talk about.

You're just being colourist with extra steps.

Also speaks volumes how so many of us don't have the same passion for black natives being native. The Cherokee Nation fucking disowned the descendents of slaves owned by the tribe for not being Indigenous, some blood quantums tests where specifically against black indigenous, and there is absolutely a current and historical anti-blackness problem in our community. But somehow I don't see the same amount of speaking out for them.

[woomycritiques543]

OHHHH!

I thought that the person was saying "ACAB!"

They said "AFAB!" Ah- sorry I was tired and I had a major misspell in my last two posts and the words looked extremely similar.

Sorry about that. Yo @evander2511 can you change your last screenshot of my posts I made a huuuuuuuge typo and I didn't see it till hours later because I thought that the post said "ACAB!" when I meant to say "ACAB!" but it said "AFAB!" God, and the fact that the mistake was so easy to make too. Dear god! Aresya, if you see this im really sorry I meant to write "ACAB!" as I slipped up and didn't see the "F" by mistake. Sorry! (PS: I still think that you're terrible, and anyone who excuses the actions of anti-black racists and creeps and literally call all the (easy to find!) evidence of their behavior "fake" for clout dont deserve to be pretending to actually support BLM. Period. You either listen to BLM or not. Not only if it benefits you, but all of us.)

Maybe I’m just being dramatic but it does legitimately scare and sadden me to see that a lot of transandrophobia truthers are literally just…young boys. Like, actual children. Like you’re not even old enough to vote yet and you have your whole life ahead of you and yet you are being manipulated into joining an mra group that hates trans women with a passion and thinks that men are oppressed in society for being men, and constantly uses Black men as their talking point in order to sound diverse and inclusive, meanwhile they’re also appropriating and misusing terminology specifically created by Black women to talk about our own oppression in order to get their misandry point across…to say nothing of the fact that the largest people in this group(including but not limited to its creator!) have misogynistic rape/detrans kinks centered specifically around preying on lesbians and trans women and this is something that is normalized and defended by the vast majority of transandrophobia truthers, or at least defended viciously by every single transandrodork that I’ve ever encountered who argued with me(a lesbian!!!) that actually there’s nothing wrong with getting off to the corrective rape of women because two consenting adults can do whatever they want in the bedroom(yeah right)! Not to mention I have yet to come across a transandrophobia truther who wasn’t also a raging die-hard Zionist.

And that’s why it disturbs me so much to see young trans boys jumping onto this transmisogynistic hate train like you guys realize these men don’t have your best interests at heart, right? They’re only going to manipulate you into being a sexist entitled asshat who shuns and bullies the trans women in your community and sees them as oppressing you. Like I know you’re still in middle/high school but you can still think for yourselves, you can choose to be better than this, you can choose to actually learn about feminism and realize that it’s not actually misandry that oppresses you, it’s transphobia. Misandry doesn’t suddenly become real because you slap a trans paint over it that’s not how it works that’s not how intersectionality works that’s not how any of this shit works. There are better trans men to talk to about trans issues who know that the patriarchy is real and don’t shit on trans women in order to speak out about trans topics, so go seek them out, okay? You absolutely do not have to listen to shit that the “male supremacists but trans” group of lowlives has to say. Hell, tell them to fuck off instead! Please, I promise you that there are much better options, there are ALWAYS better options, and you still have time to escape before they fully radicalize you into basically being an incel. There will ALWAYS be another way. ❤️

Not to mention slavery in pre-colonial Africa was noticeably different than what happened in the Americas. Per Johann Gottlieb Christaller in Ashanti Proverbs: The Primitive Ethics of a Savage People (what an amazing title for a book that’s DEFINITELY not dehumanizing in any way—) we know that slaves of the Ashanti, for one infamous instance, were treated well, could be paid wages, often inherited property from their masters, and he specifically states that “so-called ‘slavery’ in Africa as practiced by the Africans themselves, was seldom or never that terrible thing with which later and exotic associations have invested that word.”

Meanwhile chattel slavery of the Americas was unprecedented in both scale (being the largest forced migration in all of human history with 15 million people kidnapped, devastating the economy of an entire continent, destroying and/or weakening the remaining kingdoms and making them much more susceptible to colonization later on) and brutality (I mean it was literally called CHATTEL slavery my ancestors were treated like ANIMALS with everything that involves. Our bodies were skinned. Our hair was used to stuff furniture. There were “breeding farms.” People were branded. There was buck-breaking. Black babies were used as gator bait. Some slaves were eaten). African slavery matches neither that scale nor brutality, and comparing it to American chattel slavery is… asinine at best.

And ofc as OP brought out, there are still the modern day ramifications of American chattel slavery and the oppression afterwards. Africans aren’t responsible for what AMERICANS did in AMERICA. They aren’t responsible for the slavery here, or anything that followed as white peoples attempted to hold onto power: the Jim Crow, the segregation, the lynching, the police brutality, the redlining, or any of the other manifestations of systemic racism and lingering racist attitudes here, and Africans didn’t deserve to be subjected to the colonialism then or the neocolonialism today.

The obsession with whitewashing American slavery is deeply fascinating and horrifying to me. Like yes, there was slavery in pre-colonial Africa! It was also in Asia! And the Americas! And in *gasp* Europe too! White people also enslaved other white people! (Not that we ever hear about it though… gotta vilify people of color as savages!!!) But those forms of slavery haven’t had far reaching ramifications to this day the same way American slavery has, screwing over a continent and the people who were enslaved and left a plethora of racial stereotypes and systemic racism that still harms people today. It’s that simple. Unlike Greek slavery and Roman slavery and even pre-colonial African slavery, the ramifications of the transatlantic slave trade and American slavery are STILL ongoing, and I don’t get why it’s so hard for the right wing to understand this.

I mean, I've written a lot of posts about this, but this is the basic essence of it. It's not that they don't understand it, it's just not profitable or useful for them to do so, so they don't. Besides, they don't think it was a) actually that bad or b) that anything should be done to redress the results of that badness in modern-day life, because as far as they're concerned, that was and is what black people deserve and they don't understand why everyone is making such a fuss about it.

And yet there's some tiny withered part of them that does know they need to come up with an excuse that sounds even remotely close to what ordinary people believe. That's why they're going in with DeSantis' "let's teach that slavery was sometimes good for black people actually!" bullshit and followed it up with "the Holocaust was good for Jews actually," because there's no epochal, stain-on-humanity atrocity that cannot be usefully revised in the diseased little minds of White Supremacist Moral Self Righteousness. Alas.

Dark art is like drugs.

1: Most people see them as bad things, so people involved with them are bad.

2: Some of them are socially acceptable. Alcohol or cigarettes are socially acceptable, as are Jinx and Hex.

3: When "nice people" are involved with them, it is okay. It's ok for high-class people to drink expensive wine, but it's not ok for working-class people to drink cheap alcohol. It's ok for the marauders to throw hex around, but it's not ok for Snape to invent some curse.

4: They can be useful. We use some drugs as medicine.

5: People who study them don't need to want to use them.

6: They are alluring for people who feel abandoned, want to control things, etc.

The fact that she sums up being Black as cornrows and Motown offers great insight into why in Harry Potter she gave her only Irish character the name Seamus Finnegan, the most notable Black character Kingsley Shacklebolt and the only East Asian character Cho Chang. Part of me wants to engage with this line of thinking and explain why race and gender are structurally very different despite both being social constructs and then I remember that none of these people actually care about that shit.
