Sunday Morning Thoughts on Whiteness

TLDR: It’s Violently Self-Centered Fuckery

I read something the other day about neurodivergence where the person said that they didn’t think peer pressure was a real thing because they’d never experienced it — mainly because they kept asking why until whoever suggested the thing got frustrated and went away.

I know what they were saying but when I thought about it, the stand-out part was “as this thing never happened to me, I figured it was completely made up rather than thinking that other people had a different experience and both can be true.”

That is the problem with whiteness.

And by whiteness, I mean the forced hegemony of white supremacist patriarchal capitalism in all its christian, xenophobic, fatphobic, ableist, cis-het glory.

Y’all literally convince yourselves that if it’s not your experience, it doesn’t exist and therefore must be destroyed.

Then y’all wonder why so many of you are violent lil murderbots. Like somehow you’re different.

White culture consists of horrifically violent cultural cannibalism and global oppression. You made inhumanity your primary characteristic then built a culture of lies to deny it.

Plausible deniability is a way of life for you. You are convinced that as long as you don’t explicitly say it, it can’t be true but you’re also supposed to be able to figure out what’s really meant through social cues.
