I'm NOT speaking for @SteelCurtain , but I can imagine that after having to intervene in the Christianity thread that somehow morphed into a N**GERmania fuck-fest of nothing but several posters woefully decrying the unfairness of being deprived of their N**GER fixes, he may have popped in on Slack and seen Jorm's little funny or whatever it was and not felt up to explaining that shit yet again.
Now, I could be totally wrong as I am obviously NOT Steel. They may not even be the sequence of events, IDK.
But I do know how mentally trying it is to have to keep explaining this sort of shit to folks who 9 times out of 10 just don't want to understand.
It's exhausting.
NOTE: I'm not necessarily referring to @Jörmungandr 's faux paus in voicing the following thoughts, but in regards to the various other elements that are currently bandying about in this and a couple of other threads.
Hang out in atheist spaces long enough and blacks will inevitably receive their N**GER wake-up call by those who feel compelled to "remind" you and anyone who looks like that you aren't quite as worthy of basic respect and human decency as they are, and subtly attempt to assert their superiority by putting N**GERS in their place under the guise of free speech, being anti-PC, or just making jokes. They just can't help themselves.
And these are the very same motherfuckers will pretend to speculate as to why "the Blacks" feel the need to create their own platforms, and call it reverse racism.
Well, there's the reason why. Enough of you go out of your way to make sure that blacks feel othered, out of place and unwelcome in mainstream atheist communities whenever it suits your fancy.
So, it is what it is.
Black atheists who participate in these forums need to recognize that these folks are NOT their peers or allies despite holding similar world or political views, lest they find themselves hurt and brutally disappointed no matter how anti-Trump, egalitarian, and/or liberal these assholes profess to be. They still benefit from white supremacy...and they know it. They've got every reason to make sure it prevails and do not hesitate to re-draw lines of racial hierarchy lines as needed.
This is "their" space and they like N**GERS to know that.
I've long been aware of this shitty little game and understand my role with perfect clarity.
