[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Man, I'm white af but OP seems even whiter. [b]Think for a minute and try to understand that this "sad, empty, dark place" has been the reality of the US for indigenous people, Black people, and other POC since, well, the beginning[/b]. You're freaking out because now it's threatening you personally. And that makes sense, in a way, but it also reveals how crazy sheltered you've been to not see that this really isn't anything new.

Quit with the doomer shit and go do something. As a pp upthread points out, there's still a LOT you can do, especially if you're as white as you sound, and you should be doing it. Go find an organization run by people with more melanin than you and volunteer your time and resources. Listen and learn. Plenty of people have been fighting this for a long time. You can give up when they do.[/quote]

There's probably a meme for that showing those groups mentioned above saying: "and yes what's new?" The amount those people have to think before they enter a store, walk down the street or try to attend an event, until you have been in their shoes, the rest may never understand.[/quote]
