🚨Warning Black people!🚨

Another famous white person with trash views has died! Do not use their own words against them, or *moderators may be forced to ban you!🤡

Do not mention that "1000 years of darkness" is a white nationalist and great replacement dog whistle!

Don't mention birtherism!

(*This is not an issue if you're on a well moderated instance on Mastodon, or if you get BlackSky moderation with BlueSky, because they know what they're doing. But random Mastodon or BlueSky moderation could get you banned for not mourning the death of racist white people hard enough🤡).

❌Bad:
This racist dude was good at kicking people in the head.

✅Good:
This great American hero was good at kicking people in the head!

❌Bad:
Birtherism is a super racist movement that led to the alt-right, Project 2025, and where we are today.

✅Good:
I like Walker Texas Ranger!

I know that you Black people don't like racism or racist people, but that's not what's important right now.

What's important is that a lot of white people *do* like them!

And when you read racists' own horrible words back to them, it gives a lot of these other white people sad feelings!

I know that you Black people prefer Bruce Lee. Especially Black people in Los Angeles and San Francisco and Oakland and Berkeley.

But again, this isn't about you.

I know that Bruce Lee used his martial arts and movie stardom to work *with* Black civil rights leaders, and to amplify their causes, and that this made him very popular with Black people all over the world.

But again, this isn't about you.

Stop being selfish!

@mekkaokereke Ironically (and this is a fun one about me), my parents didn’t like Lee (because he cheated on his wife) so as a kid my pencil case was of John Shaft. (We then moved to New Zealand and the white kids had that puny Luke Skywalker on theirs and I had John freaking Shaft.)

@mekkaokereke It's hard to imagine anyone could prefer Chuck Norris to Bruce Lee.

Hell, I'm not sure I prefer *anybody* to Bruce Lee. I sit down to watch a Bruce Lee movie and the whole time I'm just going "this is the coolest motherfucker who ever lived."

@mekkaokereke Bruce Lee sounds nice I heard a lot of things he was saying. he seems pacifist but fights only when needed at least that's what my quirky teacher said.
