    Helen Pluckrose Retweeted Lucas Lynch

    Oh good grief! "You, a concerned non-black person may be wondering how to join the discussion." Nope. "You are also discussing a black man as a non-black person, and the way you do so can contribute to anti-blackness." Absolutely nope.https://twitter.com/lucasjlynch/status/992156652345454592 …

    Helen Pluckrose added,

    Lucas Lynch @lucasjlynch
    Even a discussion of how to denounce Kanye West turns into a discussion of "staying in your lane" while criticizing dumb comments. In the #AgeOfIdentity, melanin trumps the truth, every time. https://www.theguardian.com/music/commentisfree/2018/may/03/selects-how-should-white-people-talk-about-kanye-west?CMP=fb_gu …

        "Know that we will collect our own. West is currently being dragged to hell and back by his own people with more love and style than you will ever be able to manage. We got this. There’s nothing you can add to that particular conversation that is worth saying." Jesus Christ...

        "If you think that you get to criticize black people for selling out to the system of anti-blackness that you as a non-black person benefit from and help maintain, you need to check your privilege and be quiet for a while." No.

        "You, a concerned non-black person may be wondering how to join the discussion." --> I want somebody to do an RPG mod where all the NPC chatter is replaced with odd SJW constructions like this.

        This isn't racist at all. No siree. After all Associate Editor of the Guardian, Joseph Harker, has told us many times that black people cannot be racist. Even when they are.

        for very brief fleeting moments, incredibly ***woke*** sentiments like this makes me wish the alt right wins just so these people can lose, and yes i understand how destructive and stupid that is.
