azngrl4whitegods: while i am a woke asian american social justice advocate, there are points i disagree with the sjw community on. if we are smart enough to see that white supremacy exists and know it shapes people, then we cannot hate the unwoke who still hold ideals of White perfection and worship White. i was that way and am still influenced by it. It is not their fault because they know not what they do. I have so many users that reach out to me who know in their heart how they live is wrong, that racism is wrong but they cant fight the conditioning they have received. Society socialized them to be racist even when they know it is wrong. Many people are too weak to fight against their own self interest to succeed within a racist system. The question we as non whites must ask is: do you look out for your own or your whole race, especially when the latter might not be fixable by u alone. But if nobody ever fights the system it will never change. Those are decisions non white people make everyday. Just the same, i don’t judge white people for taking advantage of white supremacist society’s influences for the same reason, self interest over what is right. Compassion helps change minds not hate. -- source link
