@kzodasnowman been called a race traitor, multiple times - for calling out weakass Asian folks who don't fight back hard at all. Fuck their weakassery.

#LateralViolence #Bullying

Related was the rampant & brutal #LateralViolence by folks who are heavily colonized & would attack POC folks from their own cultural communities for talking about & trying to raise awareness on why #decolonization is important to social progress.

Lateral violence is the new language of activism amongst LGBTIA+ people.

I haven’t been on Instagram in a few years because someone who I thought was a good friend suddenly started a harassment campaign against me accusing me of being a pretendian. It was extremely distressing. I put my account to friends-only and abandoned the platform for the sake of my mental health. Today I went back and checked my alerts for the first time in a couple of years. I saw that @augurmag had nominated me for an Aurora award for my story “Wolf Mother,” which made me smile. But then I saw that someone spammed the comments asking if the magazine has looked into my ancestry. What the actual fuck? First of all, you don’t need to be of any particular ancestry to write for the magazine. And secondly, I’m not faking anything. I am who I am. People can check my ancestry all they want. Maybe they should check to see if I’m actually of European ancestry, too, because there are no records of that on my dad’s side. Maybe I don’t actually exist. I’m a figment of everyone’s imagination. It really sucks to be undocumented. But I know who I am and how I was raised on the land and with what teachings.

A friend of mine is Inuk. Both of her parents are Inuk. But because she was kidnapped by cops and social workers in the 60s scoop and sold to a white couple to raise, people accuse her of not being Inuk. If a full-blooded Inuk goes through this shit, what hope do I have as a mixed-race person raised outside of community?

There needs to be a support group for people who are harrassed by pretendian hunters. I know a lot of people who are affected by this, and it causes suicide.

Cyber bullies drove Inuk singer Kelly Fraser to take her own life. I really think that’s what my attackers have been trying to get me to do, too. https://globalnews.ca/news/6347384/kelly-fraser-cause-of-death-suicide/amp/

Fellow #ADHD-ers! My brothers (siblings) in Christ, if you are going to add me to your e-newsletter, I need you to prune the shit out of your prose. The wild and woolly mailer I just got from an ADHD therapist is basically committing #lateralviolence on an ADHD brain. If you can't control your output, what makes you imagine I can make sense of it? Write that shit right after you take your meds, alright.
Most of #AsianMastodon seems OK talking about offences from non Asians. We need to be honest & fight against shitass #LateralViolence too. I get ignorant colonized shit from Chinatown. Fuck off with Asian superiority BS with me.
Was accused of #LateralViolence from mainly white ppl when me & several #POC people who were #bullied for months/years by " #SocialMedia #influencers who were the ones being the real life bullies - started getting exposed on truths. Had to face angry ppl for telling truths - because self declared online celeb sent naive armies after us, for trying to tell ppl they're liars & to stop funding their lavish lifestyles. I don't like selfish peoples. I stood up for myself
