    It's hard to stay in your lane when people keep veering into it from others & telling you what you can't do, say, wear, think, be.https://twitter.com/smelllikesugar/status/913113077696122887 …

    But many won't. As a community, those discussions are had. That's basic respect in itself as well. Knowing when to stay in your lane.

        That's not on us. Really not our job to have these discussions and continue to talk in circles with those who don't have OUR best interests.

        It's not, no, but they do it anyway. Have protests. Try to get art banned. etc

        But I do have your best interests at heart. I think cultural mixing & a lessening of identity-based ethics will reduce racism.

        No-one is veering into your lane, Helen. White people thinking they know best/more than POC on POC issues is a white person thing.

        On cultural issues. I do think I know better than you. Some of the ppl who agree with me are POC. Some who agree with you are white.

        He's telling me what gay men think, Mike, and why I'll never understand. You're all intersectional loons who hate cultural appropriation.

        he's a fucktard who doesn't speak for me - allow me to brandish my rampant homosexuality and multi-racial background.

        Worse yet is when they call people from their identifiable group traitors because they might disagree with whole idea of lane trafficking

        Their "stay in your lane" rhetoric could easily come from the alt right. Identity politics does wonders in horseshoe theory

        it is also fascinating that only one group have to "stay on the lane"...a very convenient idea.

        You have your own interests at heart, and that's fine, but that's not what this discussion is about. And never has been.
