#unitedfrontagainstfascism — Public Fediverse posts

@TheBird After listening to Jonathan on the podcast the other day, I agree with everything he says but am puzzled as to why no mention of #LGBT in this long thread.

OK but when this is framed solely in terms of BIPOC then it perpetuates exclusion of #LGBTQIA #peoplewithdisabilities #AAPI #nuerodivergent and doesn't firewall against any form of #blacknationalism which though not really a problem here, at all, at this time, occasionally does interfere with a #unitedfrontagainstfascism.

I understand that #resistance against #fascism is not a sufficient remedy for the #oppression #BIPOC contend with, but to the extent that others (not Jonathan) overtly discourage "yts" from dialogue we create a centrifugal force of exclusionary identity politics.

White people who express solidarity with #POC are bombarded by hateful DMs. To then be told by some leaders of indigenous conversation on Mastodon to stay out of moderation discussions, don't offer suggestions is a bit put offish.

At least Jonathan is engaging in broad dialogue and not an insular "POC-only" silo, so that is cool.
