it’s been said thousands of times before but ur white before ur lgbt and i think a lot of you forget that, like, if you are a white person you will always have power over poc regardless of u being gay or trans, ur whiteness is a pedestal that u will never get to forfeit even if u have a pride flag, and bc of that u will never be the target of systemic / general racism and therefore have no say in conversations on what is and isn’t racist, you are not effected, you donot have the history of subjugation that poc do, cishet or not you are white and that shapes how you navigate thru the world regarding racism, and if you cannot understand that and refuse to unlearn bigoted behavior you will never be an ally to people of color, being apart of a marginalized group does not suddenly make you a good person / a person who cannot be racist, but a lot of you think it does
