Doesn't sound all that different from the stuff emanating from the right's Great Orange Hope a while back that worked pretty well to keep his base appropriately frothing at the mouth - you are free to write it off as pure coincidence... but I won't just yet.
But this is not misinformation, it is uncontrolled nonsense.
Fair enough... but drowning out any honest discourse with a flood of histrionic right-wing horseshit has always been the core strategy of the US propaganda model - I'd say that their AI is just doing the logical thing and taking the horseshit to a very granular level. I mean... "put glue on your pizza" is just not that far off "drink bleach to kill viruses on the inside."
I know I'm describing a pattern that probably wasn't intentional (I hope) - but the pattern does look like it could fit.
...are you having a hard time understanding? White supremacism has nothing to do with your character, genius.
where I acted defensive before you actually attacked me personally.
We literally have a term for this, you know... it's called having a reactionary fit. And yours is going no different than all the others I've witnessed over the years. I've witnessed it so many times that I do believe it's unavoidable.
Correct.
Why? Why is it such a terrible thing to admit that white supremacism is bigger than you and your personal feels about it? Why is it so difficult to admit that literally growing up in a fundamentally white supremacist society has, by design, not equipped you to view the world through a lens that isn't white supremacist?
I realize my fault and try to do better.
"Do better" at what? Being a "good white?" There's no such thing... there is just white. Caucasity. It all flows from the same place - the whole point of white is white supremacism. It serves absolutely no purpose otherwise.
And how are you "doing better" when you get all reactionary when somene asks you to explain why you even have all this privilege in the first place? It's almost as if you don't really want to know... perhaps because the whole reason you have it is actually closely linked to the very reason the Rittenhouses of this world act the way they do?
Anyway, maybe you should stop calling me racist just because I’m white.
Appealing to "reverse racism" is not going to work for you here - that only works on liberals.
Again, I do not give a shit about my skin color.
Then prove it. Detach yourself from whiteness long enough so that you can actually observe what it is we are talking about from the outside. You know... the exact opposite from what you've been doing up until now?
You do not need to feel personally attacked by something in order to defend it.
Riiight... you were just acting like a scalded cat for shits and giggles, eh?
You’re calling me, somebody you know nothing about, racist—and for that, you can kindly fuck right off.
Ooooh... and that would be such a terrible thing, right? You were born into a fundamentally white supremacist society, so it's perfectly rational to pretend that this fundamentally white supremacist society couldn't possibly have affected you, superheroic liberal that you are, in any possible way, right? After all... it's all about your personal feels on the matter, correct? I guess this fundamentally white supremacist society must have remained so through sheer coincidence, right?
You are so incapable of detaching yourself from whiteness that you will literally view any mention of white supremacism's roots in white, western liberalism as a personal attack... but you may want to start looking into it - the roots of white supremacism isn't going to remain a secret much longer.
Literally everyone who disagrees with me is a white supremacist.
Right, right... we exist in a fundamentally white supremacist society - except nobody can be influenced by white supremacism at all because admitting to it will hurt our feels.
Any other tell-tale signs you want to show off before we continue?
until right now where you’re clearly accusing me of being a white supremacist??
You turning reactionary at the mere mention of the term white supremacism is pretty telling. Remember... at no point did I actually accuse you of anything.
it’s coming from a perspective of privilege,
Where does this privilege come from? What created it, and for what reasons?
doesn’t suddenly make me believe white people are the superior race.
You know overt white supremacism? You did know that it's only the visible tip of the white supremacism iceberg, right? And that the biggest part of it is hidden... even from you?
But thanks for the offer, you self righteous asshole. Fuck off.
I will take that as an endorsement of the latter option. Very well.
You feel attacked because you are invested in whiteness without even being aware of it. This is not some "personal failing" on your part - it's just the way white supremacism works and has worked long before any of us was even born. It really has very little to do with your personal feelings on the matter - if white supremacism relied on individualism to function it would have gone extinct a week after it was invented.
I'm going to take a wild guess here and bet that you always feel the need to "distance" yourself from the likes of Rittenhouse and his ilk, because you don't want people to associate your whiteness with his. The reason for that is really simple... in our fundamentally white supremacist society, race is literally the most important identifier there is - in spite of the fact that people have been debunking "race science" as pseudo-scientific hokum since at least 1836.
And yet... here we are - still dealing with it's consequences.
Right, right... and why does Indonesia need capitalist-parasite-friendly monocropping all of a sudden to properly feed it's people again?
The idea that more capitalist exploitation will (somehow) fix the problems caused by capitalist exploitation is something the liberal hive-mind here on lemmy seems rather eager to get behind.
Good on those local farmers.
Fuck the gmo-peddlers, fuck (so-called) "Golden Rice," and fuck liberals who turn pro-colonialist at the drop of a hat.
The fact that you feel personally attacked as soon as somebody used the term white supremacism says... what? You can take a shot at answering that... or I could answer it for you if it makes it easier. I assure you it will be perfectly painless.
Being ignorant of some issue a non-white person might
And what kind of people has been enforcing this ignorance all this time? Maybe the same kind of people you'll find in Rittenhouse's YT rec-list?
Which part?
