My bf is a black man. Hes in a city hes not from originally and they're pretty different, highly liberal and elitist. Were not.

Anyways he questioned the blm March there. It didnt look like the one in my city. It wasnt fired up black people marching for their rights or for justice, it was white lgbt people flying lgbt flags under the blm banner. I think it's fine for black and white people to march together, great even, but they were only there for the lgbt part. And he asked why it looked more like an lgbt march than a blm March.

So he gets screamed at by some woman who is non binary and says the following: Black men are notoriously homophobic Black men treat black women bad Black men are sexist He is cis so he is therefore privileged She is non binary and has been historically more oppressed than anyone(yes really)

This woman was white, rich, and highly educated. She was so consumed by the cult of gender personality that she felt it was appropriate to scream at probably the only black man in the entire vicinity of a march for black lives with criticisms all based ON HIS RACE. In her warped worldview of privilege vs oppression she essentially turned into a woke kkk member, prejudging him based on a set of qualities that make black men bad.

I snapped then. I started reading more and it was all the same. "Straight black men are the white people of black people" etc etc. White women are not oppressed. Black people are not oppressed. No one is oppressed except for non binary and trans people with advanced degrees and lovely homes on the coast. It's literally just the same structure of authority as always with pretty words.

I just... I am... I... What. C R I N G E. Jesus, just reading that was enough to re-peak me. Can't believe how your boyfriend and you felt. How did he take it btw, if you don't mind me asking?

He was rightfully pretty upset. I think he was in shock, where we're from this isnt really normal discourse, and he was way out of his element.
