ppl follow black creators expecting them to give them the perfect correct takes on black issues and then sees their favorite black creators disagreeing and go BWWUUUHHH?? as if they didn’t realize they’re all individual ppl with different experiences and viewpoints ._.

#'w-'well all of these black creators i follow dont agree on this issue!!!' #'how am i supposed to know whats the correctes most goodest take now????' #idk maybe follow ppl for their content and bc you like them for who they are instead of leeching off of other ppls viewpoints #so you never have to have a critical thought or original opinion in your fuckin life #what are you so scared of? being wrong sometimes? grow up and face ppl when you're wrong. #sometimes theres shit you can only learn about by being wrong. you have to be open to the idea that you aren't always going to know #The Correct Take #and sometimes the only way to know that is to be wrong in an actual conversation and be corrected. #not sit there and pray your favorite creators make a video about it 🙄 #generally: the correct take is whatever does the least harm and benefits everyone as much as possible. #at least thats imo #stop following x minority to get x takes about their specific x issues #and maybe follow them for more than whatever they can tell you about how they feel about being x minority and all things surrounding that #like DO YOU EVEN KNOW THEIR FAVORITE TV SHOW? DO YOU EVEN KNOW ANY OF THEIR OPINIONS OUTSIDE OF THE ONES #THEY HAVE ON THEIR MINORITY STATUS? jfc #it just seems kinda dehumanizing. #id hate if someone was following me JUST to hear my atkes on trans shit. like tell me you dont care about me as a person w/o saying it lol #the reason i bring up black creators specifically is bc i feel like it happens more to them and it looks specificvally worse #as someone on the outside- ik i cant speak for them all- but how it looks to me is people treat balck creators (and poc creators in general #tbh) way less personabley and way more distant and professional with them. as if they're only there for the info and then just to leave #its weird #you dont wanna stick around and get to know them at all..? in any capacity.....? #idk
