Adding here that in some Marxist analysis, racism is a form of classism, eg races are kept from moving into other classes via invented prejudices which divide the proles from focusing on the bourgeoisie. That is, racism is economic and power centred not aesthetic. So, when we say white people can’t experience racism, we mean that they are not kept from advancing in society/class because of their race, whereas non-white people are. This is a societal analysis, not an individual one which is the focus of a liberal definition.

Note also that the definition of “white” is fluid dependent on capital’s needs and demands.

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
