“You Act White”

When Black people display their intelligence they are NOT imitating Whiteness because intelligence is not an inherently White trait. Black excellence is real and has nothing to do with White proximity.

For the people in the back: intelligence is NOT a racial indicator, NOT cultural appropriation, and does NOT have racial significance.

#black excellence #African American excellence #racial equality #is racial equity a thing? #white people #black people #personal #As a teenager I accused black people of this and even asked my black friend about the wording #having them explain this idea to me #so when a former friend finally did I changed #I wish racial discussions happened more often #black culture #white culture #systematic oppression #Jim crow has not ended

this “upcycled” lamp made of a whisky(?) bottle filled with aquarium gravel might be one of the most bizarre things i’ve ever seen at the little flea market by my nana’s

Favorite part about Death Note is that Light gets the Note and IMMEDIATELY becomes a serial killer fascist with a god complex.

No build-up, no Fall From Grace, no slow corruption of a good boy gradually becoming a monster. Just-- SPEED RUN STRATS. And I love that for him.

Tbh, I think there are a lot of folks (especially boys) from my high school days who would have immediately become monsters if given the power of life and death over every person around them.

It's kind of like how when people have apparently casual ableist beliefs, and you push them to elaborate on that just a little bit, they'll often end up openly saying stuff like "well, some people are just too disabled to be worth the resources it takes to support them." - Which is... eugenics. It's just eugenics, justified by the myth of scarcity. Now these folks almost certainly won't call it eugenics, or even think of it that way. But that doesn't make it NOT a core belief of the Nazis.

In a similar way, Light seems like a nice and well-adjusted boy with strong beliefs. No harm in that.

But to paraphrase Lindsay Ellis in her analysis of the Game of Thrones ending, "Power doesn't necessarily corrupt. Power reveals." [I think she was quoting someone else when she said this. It was someone who wrote a biography on LBJ. Whatever. Lindsay said it and she's smart as hell and I recommend her videos.]

And 15 minutes into the Death Note musical, I'm already thinking about how so many beliefs "casually" held by well-adjusted, nice people immediately reveal their monstrousness when talked through to their natural conclusion.

And I wonder how many of those people, given the power of life and death over everyone around them - the power to take their ideas to their natural conclusions - would also immediately reveal how their lack of self-reflection has laid the groundwork for them to become monsters.

Some sloppy thoughts

I’m sure it’s been said before but it’s funny how tricky it is for people to balance, like, a belief in/hatred of progressivism and a hatred of/proclaimed love for The West and White Culture, when the West, is, like, more progressive than the not-west.

SJW-types and alt-right types both trying to draw a link between Whiteness and, like, homophobia, when the white countries are the least homophobic ones. Like the west is the place where they *don’t* punish homosexuality with death. Why are the hell are the alt-right supporting it!? Like the alt-right types want to ‘defend western culture’ (which they define as conservatism (and also Being Better Than Everyone Else In Whatever Way)), and the far-left-types want to attack ‘western culture’ (which they also define as conservatism (but also Being Worse Than Everyone Else In whatever Way)). But the definition is wrong. Western culture is, like... about 50% Progressivism by volume. It’s gay marriage and gender studies degrees and blue hair and labour laws and feminism and all that good stuff as well. Those things are contained within white culture, what with all the white people in the culture being progressive like half the time. Of course, they’re conservative the other half of the time, but that is less than average. Statistically.

It -is- an understandable belief though, given the opposition. Like I get it - if you’re opposed to racism, and all the racists jack off about how great white culture is (as defined by the racists as ‘being racist (based!)’), then to take them down a peg, you tell them that thing they like (white culture) actually (accepting that definition) sucks. Especially when they’re pro-white racists! Fuck those guys! And the pro-white racists themselves being massively conservative and reactionary in every other way definitely colours that side of things. But the definition you’re accepting isn’t really super accurate. Just... statistically, it doesn’t track to the facts of the matter.

It’s like how far-right-types and far-left-types sometimes seem to both think that The Jews are subversive elements who work towards spreading homosexuality and communism to subvert America and destroy traditional family values, except the former think that’s bad and the latter think that’s based. And neither are particularly correct about the -facts- of the matter; they’re, like, statistically a bit more progressive than average, but not, like, by that much, and not more than atheists.), but they’re just... lead by the nose by the vibes of their ideology to the position necessary to fit with the shape of their feelings.

Or how people on the left are fawningly positive about Islam and are very careful to not bring up the Very Conservative parts of it (which can be understandable from an American perspective when American Muslims are on average more progressive than American Christians!), while the most die-hard xenophobes rallying against them argue their case with lurid descriptions of how incredibly Conservative they are, listing evidence against Muslims consisting entirely of things the die-hard xenophobes absolutely support.

Maybe they should listen to all the non-western far-right types and convert to Islam or move to Russia and start complaining about how the evil west are trying to contaminate the youth with drag queen story hours and transgender bathrooms or whatever. A stupid ideology that is at least more consistent than what they’re peddling now.

In retrospect it still wigs me out how disconnected my parents always seemed from their historical context. All I ever got from my boomer dad was that the public housing he grew up in was a nightmare (government assistance programs bad) and that he hated those drugged up irresponsible hippies. Nothing about Vietnam other than that his brother had a near miss with the draft. Nothing about the civil rights movement he must have lived through in New York City and Kentucky. Nothing. My mom’s stories were all about her teenage escapades in a small town. She talked a lot about the 512MB hard drive of her first computer but never mentioned (until I confronted her about it) that she avoided dating POC because it would’ve disappointed her parents. Nary a mention of her gay older brother’s struggles in the 80’s. It’s like they lived through 40 or 50 years of history they didn’t even experience. It was such a bizarre experience for me, in my 20’s, to learn about so many world altering events they must have experienced more or less first hand and just… never bothered to talk about. It’s like the time I mentioned President Carter and my grandma went “he was terrible for farmers. He’s the reason we lost our dairy farm.” Excuse???? And you just never bothered to mention it???? Then of course when I tried to find out more she shut down and said she doesn’t talk politics. Fam that’s HISTORY. It’s my history too as a person living on this stupid flaming earth and I need to know it! I needed to know what my ancestors experienced to understand my place in this moment in time and I never got much. They just let me grow up believing racism was all fixed and queer people didn’t exist. I know it’s the poison of that old white supremacy problem through and through, but it still boggles my brain that they could be that way.

WW Says Black Americans Have Nothing To Appreciate From WS Culture

This lady is not afraid, to tell the truth! I’m sorry (not really) but Europeans have spread more evil, more destruction, and death across the globe than any other group! Then when it makes them uncomfortable they simply erase it. We see that with DeSantis and others. Just as it is stated in this video wherever Europeans went THEFT, DECEIT, ENSLAVEMENT, TORTURE, MURDER, RAPE and DISEASE were not…

If you are of any color, do not watch this movie. It's not for us. It's for them.

It's all the racist triggers with none of the release.

I was expecting a movie where friends get together and kill one another. It was not that. At all.

This is one of those horror movies for white people. That's fine, I'd just like a little warning next time.

To the writers and directors and studio executives who make stuff like this, this is how to tell the difference: If the racist white people end the movie unscathed, it's for liberal white people. If the movie ends with the racist white people dead, it's for us. But that is not always the case, but it is most of the time, so use your common sense.

Also, if you're going to have a movie where they are dropping hard Rs and all the other racial slur, please make the movie worth it. I want visual comeuppance. Not that psychological, "you thought," bull shit.

This movie is for liberal white people to become aware of the racism that they can't always see.

I will say I did learn one thing watching this. That "scold the parents in front of their kids, to cause embarrassment" in hopes of rushing the kids' assimilation and inducing racial self-hatred is something I've never once thought about. That's some next level evil.

This is Afrocentric. It shows deep insecurities as well if you start taking history from other ethnic/ racial groups.

Posting this here for receipts in case someone decides to steal this killer line of poetry I wrote for a spotify playlist description of all things (and which, together with the title, sounds like the heading of an essay that I would immediately want to read very badly):

#original #will wood #suburbia overture #playlist #I had to get real creative with the word limit because the third line got cut off on mobile every time #if anyone likes this enough to want to write an image description please do #i need to go to bed. #white culture #christianity cw #actively resisting the urge not to add all the catholic tags bc i KNOW that's a self-harming activity for real #if living in America hasn't made white Christians recognize that they have built their churches on the bones of thskr #*on the bones of their own botched divinity then this post sure won't #and then I'd have a bunch of people in the notes who want to argue but the argument always goes #- 'hey bud what about this huge logical fallacy in your own moral code?' - 'God said so.' - 'cool cool good debate everyone.' #anyway jesus is just a cop who puts all the bad people in the bad person hole - just like real cops. #there's a reason white christianity and white supremacy go hand-in-hand. #nobody's got a shorter memory for atrocities than the white catholic. #do you think we learned about residential schools at catholic school in my 99% white suburban township? #of course not! we didn't even learn about the crusades!! i learned about residential schools on tumblr at like age 27!!!! #fucking. chilling. that it took that long for me to find that out #i really really hate the culture i was raised in #our churches were filled with everything except divinity. - and also ANY people of color #in my 18 years of being forced to attend mass i NEVER saw a Black person in ANY of those buildings. #which is Fucking Weird. #I don't think I ever saw any people of color actually. i absolutely never spoke to anyone non-white before i was 11. #and i didn't have a full conversation with a Black person until i was like 16. we weren't okay. #there is a special kind of sickness to white culture that chokes out the soul of our own kindness. it's rank. it's rancid. #fuck your culture. i will exist in radical queer spaces til i die. #my parents are democrats btw. it wasn't a fundamentalist household. it didn't have to be. #we were told racism is bad but taught it was basically over. which is a great way to produce a shitload of racist white kids.
