i've always considered it inconsistent when a black person oppressed by misogyny hates all white people but doesn't hate all men

i think ppl would say just as intersectionality reveals that power is distributed unevenly, we would assume/might experience that resistance to power works unevenly. i would also add i think the term ally should be abolished and misrepresents the reality of political organizing
i think most times it's simply race loyalty. i agree allyship is empty but it works here in revealing people's inconsistencies

agreed blackness has a public life via criminality that gender doesn't quite in the West. and yes i only use ally to roast ppl lol cuz it's basically their "but i have a black friend" aslfjlsdk

i think ally makes people feel good and included for siding with shared causes/politics but that's not what shit is about
