One of my black friends is someone I used to adore. She was so full of optimism, energy, and frankly heckin cute. Then she took the Woke Pill and she's a crazy person. Hates everyone and everything. Tells wild stories and I'm just thinking "I don't believe that happened to you, I think you read it in a book." Refused to finish the last part of a long-term project with me because I'm white.
A Native American friend of mine went the same way. He decided that white people hate him because he feels like people looked at his son funny at a public park during a concert. That was his claim to victimhood.
By the end of the conversation, my Native American friend LITERALLY told me that he believed that it was good and helpful when the Native American tribes kept Africans as slaves. He could not as longer see that slavery is evil, just that Indian=good and white=bad. Totally racist and crazy.
Sorry buddy that’s full jogger status.
I cut out anyone that is obsessed with my skin color and defining my experiences or character by it.
I don’t need any “friends” who discount my experiences because they’re darker than me.
When the COF of someone’s life is their skin color, they’re lost, and nothing but a liability to everyone around them.
Yup. It hurts, but I’m keeping her at arms length. It sucks, but 🤷🏼♀️
