@mekkaokereke @staidwinnow @Jorsh oh my god...

so, that thing where white people say, "i don't see racism"...

that's *literally true* on fedi*, even though it's actually there, and in the mentions of black fedi users.

[*] to what extent i don't know yet

@Sablebadger @mekkaokereke @staidwinnow @Jorsh
@Sablebadger Yes, the racism is definitely there and has always been there, but white-people-who-say-they-don't-see-racism have also always been there (for hundreds of years).

the point in earlier posts is: because fediverse *software* makes many reply-posts literally invisible, there are now many instances of racism that we are truly unable to see.
