i don't understand how a lot of y'all can be all "protect and believe black women" but when it comes time to do it, you invalidate her and call her a liar and question her femininity...
i know that defending her online isn't the end all but she sees that stuff. she sees people in her comments and she sees the people on twitter calling her a liar and derogatory names. she sees that and it breaks her.
for the most part, black women are defending and believing her because usually the only people that REALLY have black women's back is black women. even then, there's animosity a lot of the time.
black men need to defend us too. they need to have our back the way they expect us to have theirs. how can they expect us to be at their beck and call and defend them even when they're in the absolute wrong but not bat an eyelash when somebody does us wrong? how can they get mad when we don't defend their wrongdoings but call us liars and bitches when something happens to us.
this shit is sick and the fact that megan has shared her suicidal thoughts over this entire situation is incredibly heartbreaking. she wished she would have fucking died than have to deal with everything these people are putting her through.
the very LEAST we could do (especially within the black community) is support and uplift her online. lift her spirits even the slightest, but people chose to berate her and push her down even further.
we don't deserve megan thee stallion and she deserves so much more. my heart is crying for her and i really pray she gets the closure she deserves.
anyways if you see a black character like marina ida and want to draw them as a human and you decide the best way to do that is to give her straight/wavy-ass spaghetti strands of hair im just assuming youre racist from now on
hair is a huge part of the black cultural identity and yall have had time to learn how to draw and respect black people properly. if youre too lazy to portray one of the ONLY black splatoon characters without whitewashing her black features, youre just a bigot atp.
like black folks have TRIED to explain it to yall but this fandom is just deadset on being antiblack ig
The reason WOC are calling out MOC for preferring racist white women is not because they are against interracial relationships. It’s because you shouldn’t tolerate white women being racist and fetishizing you just because you are a horny misogynist who doesn’t care about racism as long as you get laid 🙄.
I’m NOT saying that is the case in all interracial relationships at all; I’m just saying by and large MOC should do better.
When you have been called all manner of degrading things like the Black woman has, it can feel empowering to call yourself or be called strong. However there is a danger ⚠️ that comes with the Strong Black Women trope. It creates an expectation that you can handle more hardship than others, that people can get away with demanding more from you for less. It can also fool you into believing that you have to be superhuman to the detriment of your mental and physical health. Video Credit: @maryrarick on TikTok
Marlene and James ran into each other while sneaking out of the slytherin dorms one night and that's how they were the first people they told about their respective relationships
they covered for each other all the time after that
and Sirius, Remus, Peter, Lily and Mary were so pissed off because how the hell do James and Marlene know all this slytherin gossip all of a sudden?
