Marginalized groups should be in charge of their own liberation. If privileged people actually want to help, they should get behind the marginalized groups and follow, not grandstand over them trying to take power and acting with a white savior complex

A recent BadEmpanada vid contrasted the white anti-apartheid activists in south africa joining the black resistance orgs, vs the israeli "anti-apartheid" types almost exclusively forming their own little NGOs among themselves and condemning actual resistance groups.

Same shit throughout history
