There's a thing happening on the TikToks where people are calling white people European Americans and they are LOSING IT.
I can't stop laughing.

When I say the greatest threat to US progress has always been white people, it’s not just something I say.
It’s just an objective assessment.
@aetataureate There’s a reason why Trump is so popular despite it being common knowledge he is unfit to run a gas station much less public office.
He knows what white people want to hear. And they love him for it.
@Catwoman69y2k @Aliqqae Yeah, that’s the core of the problem. And Mastodon has a reputation for blocking attempts by contributors who want to address that problem.
I don’t agree about Bluesky they are VC funded so they have a priority for growth over sustainability, so they are going to do the bare minimum in terms of safety, just like every other centralized platform.
Bluesky isn’t a better option than Mastodon because they are just trying to recreate a corporate platform in a decentralized space.
But I completely understand why Black and Brown folks would go there instead trying Mastodon.
The Mastodon project has not made any significant progress in a long time and has a well earned reputation for ignoring the needs of its userbase.
So unfortunately many have to choose between the lesser of two evils.
Again.
Think about it like this.
Harris has raised about half a billion since she announced. Half a billion US dollars, with much of that coming from small donations.
That represents more collective power than voting because imagine what we could accomplish is that money was applied to community needs.
We have the means to provoke massive social change right now.
The problem has always been that most Americans identity with oppressors than the oppressed. So around in circles we go pretending we don’t have solutions and asking the worst people in our society to solve problems they never cared about.
