TC do you remeber that time you made a topic whining about a character in the new Game of Thrones tv show being raceswapped to black and as proof he was white you posted a piece of official art for the character?

But then it turned out the official A Song of Ice and Fire art was actually Dungeons and Dragons fanart from Deviantart, and you closed the topic as soon as you could without commenting.

You should care that even during all of this awfulness, Ukranian border officers are pushing Africans trying to flee Ukraine to the back of the line simply because they're black. Which is what these tweets are about.

well, historically black people worldwide have been treated terribly by Europeans. Eastern Europe especially isn't a glowing bastion for black people either.

I support Ukraine as i'm anti war but its not crazy to understand why African Americans or any other Black people across the world to not care about this war.

Expected and accepted.

Just look at what Whoopi Goldberg saying Jewish people in world war II were just more white people so it wasn't really racism.

I'm surprised they even suspended her, but good on them. Though the ratings tanked while she was gone and now she's basically untouchable because the view will fail without her apparently.

That's not really what she was saying. Everyone thinks the Nazis were white supremacists and only targeted Jews, which isn't true. They actually killed move white people, Slavs, then Jews. They were supremacists not white supremacists. They thought the "Aryans" were the master race and the plan was to kill off everyone who were the most undesirable, including a huge chunk of white Europeans. Those that were left alive would be either slaves or second class citizens.

What she was saying is the Nazis ultimately planned to kill off everyone except their chosen people, regardless of what color their skin was, not that Jews don't matter. Was it something she should have said? Probably not considering any time anyone talks about the Holocaust not being 100% about the Nazis trying to exterminate the Jews then accusations of anti-semitism get thrown around.

People need to remember that while Ukraine are clearly the victims in the conflict against Russia, they're no saints when it comes to race.

But I guess like in most instances nowadays, Black people are not allowed to talk about race/racism.

Referring to a collection of deliberately selected tweets by black people as "Black Twitter" is incredibly cringey.

But minimizing terrible events in the world bc race isn't immediately at the forefront of everyone's mind is also cringey.
