Is that supposed to change anything? I’m physically trying not to pop off right now if only because I recognize your username-- but keeping it a buck? This kind of immediate-defensive, “well I never owned slaves” line, coupled with how quick you peddled it out, leads me to not believe you for a single motherfuckin second; because it sounds just like every other cracker in this godforsaken nation who can have their lineage traced back to slave owners.
You’re patently untrustworthy, manifestly unserious, and honestly probably fucking dangerous regarding matters of liberation if you prioritize your papier-maché ego over the lived experience and frank fucking torture that leading a Black life entails; regardless of whether or not your hands or those of your ancestors were washed in that historical fountain of blood. I’d bet my left eye they didn’t get involved back then either, the same way your words imply you won’t get involved. After all, your folk ‘never owned slaves’, so it’s not your problem in your purview.
tl;dr please, for once in your life, perform some honest self-crit.
The person you’re responding to is not a Usonian, and their people have historically been victims of euro-amerikkkan aggression. Please be respectful to others here (rule 3) or we won’t hesitate to issue temp bans.
My understanding was that user Shrike is a Russian user living in the Russian Federation which is why I responded at all. If they are Russian-American or Russian-“israeli” then that’s a different story entirely.
Russians are Schrödinger’s crackers: white when one wants to dismiss their suffering from being on the receiving end of imperialism, Asiatic Mongolian hordes when one wants to slaughter them.
I understand your pain on this and don’t wish to downplay it. It is vile what the eurocolonizers have done to you and continue to do.
Regardless of Shrike’s circumstances as an individual. The way I see it, with exception to the comprador and collaborator classes in their respective nations, Africans (in Africa, the Caribbean, and America), Chinese, Russians, Arabs, Asians, Latin Americans and the rest of whole global south have shared class interest. That interest is in seeing through the annihilation of the US empire.
And it is in imperialist interest to cause schisms and hide that which is why they spread propaganda about “Chinese imperialism” and “Russian imperialism” and “Iranian imperialism” etc. They say “look how this nation treats women, or gay people, or such and such ethnic minority we must denounce them” when it is in fact imperialism that has inflamed those contradictions to begin with. They do not want to see nations align. They want to keep everyone fractured. All this to say that conflating white Americans with colonized people outside of America/EU who are under attack by imperialism is probably not helpful for anyone except the imperialism.
I don’t think it was you who did anyway, you’re good there dude. Either way, one of my lower replies p much sums up where I’m at with this: assuming that’s the case that he’s Russian, which I’m trying not to disbelieve, then the literal last things he should have led in with were the top three responses of every aggrieved Amerikan kyle who this actually does apply to. As a result, the pattern-finding lobe of my brain is locked in hypervigilance regarding “then why tf do you talk like Amerikans do on this subject?”.

Fine; consider it let go of then.

Edit: I did not downvote you. See below.
