god and you say americans are the stupid ones? guess who named these places? union jack on display but your stupid ass doesn't know where the duke of york is from ๐ญ๐ญ
the way yโall are reframing this discourse is insidious and ugly. it was never about americans denying US imperialism in latin america ๐ญ it started bc of that adรฉla song and yโall trying to speak over black americans and how they feel about their culture being commodified
Calling Black Americans "colonizers". Yet don't have anywhere near the same energy to call White Europeans colonizers. And will team up with White Europeans even though Europe collectively is still doing harmful and bad things like the US is.
i hate this discourse for taking me away from dragging the US. this country is an imperialist, racist, homophobic, misogynistic, bigoted shithole but i'll be damned if i condone any criticisms toward marginalized americans from it's partners-in-crime ๐ก
and yes, i just used aave but no black american will come at me because i'm not disrespecting their culture and claiming their dialect is "internet slang" or "gen z brainrot." i'm also not lying that they forced any imperialism on me all the way back in nigeria
as terrible as the US is, there are some white people who get it and won't try to gaslight you with "we don't see color in europe" or "we're one big happy family in latin america"
like please...yall know that shit is lies. straight up lies. bullshit
as a white american idgaf if you call me a gringa (derogatory) but i have seen that term weaponized against black americans trying to talk about racial politics CONSTANTLY on this app even in the context of american media and politics
This was the response when I tried to educate y'all about why AAVE is important to Black people and why it (and we) should be respected. On gringo we haven't been nearly as disrespectful....:
