That Gay Thread

[Huggy Bear]

First of all, black on black crime makes absolutely zero sense because white people that commit crimes against white people isn't referred to as white on white crime. secondly, white people bring up black on black crime to deflect from protests against police brutality. Because A black person that commits a crime is held accountable, while a police officer usually isn't

No shit, Huggy. Talk about stepping on my point like a rake and hitting yourself in the face with it. White people refer to the black community as if it’s some collective hive mind when they say “they” don’t care about X or Y, as a way to deflect from a legitimate issue, as if there are no black people who care about crime within their own communities while also caring about the very real problem of police brutality. The two problems are not mutually exclusive. You’re espousing a similar view of the LGBTQ community; blaming the entire community, as if they’re a collective consciousness, for what you assert is a lack of interest in one problem (violence against BPOC members of the community) in favor of another (delegitimization and dehumanization of trans people), as if individual members of that community can’t and/or don’t care about both. You sound just like a racist white person. 

People were calling out the injustice well before Ed Buck claimed his second victim.

Understandably.

These LBGT advocacy groups preach how LGBT are often victims of violence, yet when it's white LBGT perpetrating violence on Black LBGT AND NOT BEING PUNISHED, can't get so much as a tweet from GLAAD, or any other LBGT organization that's supposed to be ADVOCATING...

GLAAD doesn’t include any BPOC? 

It took a second victim and BLACK CIVIL RIGHTS ORGANIZATIONS, which included gay black people, but not one white LBGT organization was involve in bringing Ed Buck to justice.

What is a “white LGBTQ advocacy group”? Educate me. 

Again, GLAAD, and other LBGT advocacy groups has all this smoke for Dave Chapelle, but couldn't seem to utter a peep against Ed Buck, while he continued to drug and abuse Gay black men.

And as I mentioned previously, there were over 100 protestors at Ed Buck’s house, including many white people from what I saw in the video, so unless you vetted everyone who showed up to express their rightful outrage and can prove none of them were also members of the LGBTQ community standing up for LGBTQ POC then you’re not only pissing in the wind, you’re making sweeping generalizations about members of a community in the same way that white people make sweeping generalizations about the black community. If you take issue with the individual leaders of a particular advocacy group that’s one thing, but this “they” business is just straight up lazy bigotry.

Let me try and make this simple to understand, IT WOULD BE WARRANTED TO POINT AT BLACK ON BLACK CRIME IF BLACK PEOPLE WEREN'T BEING BROUGHT TO JUSTICE.

ED BUCK WAS NOT BEING BROUGHT TO JUSTICE FOR KILLING BLACK GAY MEN, SO IT'S WARRANTED TO CRITICIZE THE SILENCE OF WHITE LBGT ORGANIZATIONS.

got it?
