@RichardDoom@mastodon.social @Jurassicnps @bluepurplerain @pixelatedbrat @EndlessWario Of course, as a fellow PoC of COURSE your opinion matters. It would also matter if you were white, but only so long as you arent being rude and using race to try to invalidate someone else.
@freemo @RichardDoom @Jurassicnps @bluepurplerain @EndlessWario Saying that there is no "white culture" is in no way harmful to white people, it's just true. Literally the only thing that ties whites together in the US is white privilege born out of white supremacy.
@pixelatedbrat @RichardDoom@mastodon.social @Jurassicnps @bluepurplerain @EndlessWario I never claimed it was harmful to white people. I only claimed it is a false statement.
@freemo @RichardDoom @Jurassicnps @bluepurplerain @EndlessWario I'm beginning to think you're not a real doctor.
@pixelatedbrat @RichardDoom@mastodon.social @Jurassicnps @bluepurplerain @EndlessWario What my fediverse credentials arent convncing.?
By the way for the record this is how I and other admins (you know the racists you keep talking about) have greeted every single minority or LGBT person who has joined us (and we have a HUGE community here of both).

@freemo @RichardDoom @Jurassicnps @bluepurplerain @EndlessWario No, it was your apparent problem with reading comprehension, not your credentials. I never called anyone a racist at all.
@pixelatedbrat @RichardDoom@mastodon.social @Jurassicnps @bluepurplerain @EndlessWario I am not refering to you specifically, only the crowd of people with pitch forks. You have apparently taken sides with that collective.
@freemo @RichardDoom @Jurassicnps @bluepurplerain @EndlessWario I'm not calling anyone racist, I'm just saying you're wrong. There is no overarching "white culture" except white supremacy. White ppl in the US have individual ethnic inheritances that make it possible to celebrate their family backgrounds, unlike the descendants of the enslaved and colonized populations.
@pixelatedbrat @RichardDoom@mastodon.social @Jurassicnps @bluepurplerain @EndlessWario While I would never say white culture is in any way identical or even similar to black culture there most certainly are overarching similarities. First off they, for the most part, come from the same geographic regions which throughout history have had ever changing borders. Cultures which are physically close almost always have very similar languages, and culture, as well as heritage. Its why a dutch person who has never spoken german can still understand german, and why they have many of the same foods.
The idea that whites have no commonality by which to identify a unified culture is simply untrue.
