welcome to this-is-whitemisia

whitemisia: negative attitudes, hostility, or unfair treatment directed at white or white-passing people specifically because of their perceived race, coined by @taboowinters winterpunk ❄️: our operational definition of winterpunk is an anti-racist and anti-racial-supremacy movement aiming to destigmatize being proud of being pale-skinned. it's also about destigmatizing white guilt, fear of poc, and racial anxiety,

rules

pro palestine, anti ai, anti transmed

radqueer/syscourse/shipcourse neutral, no opinion and anyone is welcome here

please do not be whitemisic of course

inspired by blogs such as @this-is-ageism @this-is-classism @this-is-deformimisia @this-is-ableism-proper @this-is-depressiomisia

i do hope you know that this term is inherently interpersonal. you cant systemically oppress the majority i fear, and this term implies that it is systemic because it places it on the same pedestal that racism is.

(and im white this is coming from a white person. i just happen to also have common sense)

there's actually more people of color in the world than whites they have us strategically outnumbered

It is very telling that you didn’t actually answer this person’s question, you just spouted off a list (that you probably got off google) of generic ways to support POC. You did not name a single thing you yourself have done.

lmao

how is this not satire

ok i'll try to be constructive: you recently answered an ask where you talked about ways to help the black community. let me tell you, running a blog like this will immediately make any black people stop trusting you. rhetoric like this only hurts poc.

white people do not need a movement like this!!! saying this as a white person myself: i have never truly felt unsafe or excluded due to the color or my skin. and i don't mean in a "oh someone said something kinda rude about white people" way, i mean that in "there's genuine danger here, people inherently don't like me and could ruin my life" kind of way. what i'm trying to say is that, as a white person, even if a few internet comments might sting for a moment or whatever, being white doesn't prevent me from getting a job or making friends or finding community or just staying alive.

many online spaces (discord servers) can exclude or make microaggressions against white people

re: the ask about Hoyoverse. I think mod Aeryn is being rather insensitive to mod Leuko by discounting the fact that the main antagonist faction of Genshin Impact is the Russians (or rather, a fantastical representation of the Russians). is that not whitemisia?

it is not whitemisia or any type of discrimination for the antagonist just to exist without other context- for example, Black antagonists and gay antagonists can also exist without being discriminatory if written correctly. while snezhnaya is based on russian culture, it is not written in a whitemisic way!
