The “White Dudes for Harris” virtual call was the latest in a series of Zoom gatherings to raise money and rally support among tens of thousands of supporters for Kamala Harris.
If you want to use historical precedent to make reductionist takes, really nobody should ever organize into any kind of group because if you dig far enough back everyone has violent, savage ancestors. History has proven that all groups of people have, at some point, done horrible things. There should be no United Nations because literally every government has a dark history. Also, how can we trust teachers (who each have had some horrible things in their ancestry) to teach our children?! Doctors should not provide care because there is a long history of systemic abuse in the field.
At least be consistent.
As for current events, maybe separate the good and the bad instead of just labeling everyone in a group bad. Historically and in the present lots of groups fought and bled for equity. You’re shitting all over it.
Ah, thanks for clarifying.
I’m sure the idea of something being okay for some races but not for others has a name.
Yes, it’s called historical precedent. And not even historical anymore, just ask anyone in downtown Nashville.
