i mean. c’mon. its 2020. there’s no “real life” and “the internet” as two separated layers of reality anymore. online discussions are constantly not only referencing “real life” issues but shaping our world too. talking about covert racism in this community IS talking about covert racism in our society. saying the whole conversation is just people “bitching” is diminishing an entire anti-racism cause. it’s not “just a game”, or “just a online community”, is about a system of privilege that cuts across our online interactions too (: k bye
