Doomer [About the State of Hexbear When It Comes to POC]
I've been thinking on whether or not I should start limiting myself to c/em_poc and c/mutual_aid again, and I've been increasingly feeling like it's only right that I do so.
Interacting with white leftist ignorance is just too much of a chore and a toll on my mental health that I currently do not need right now. Hexbear isn't immune to it. In fact, I feel like too many crackers on this site are blinded by the "I'm one of the good ones" mentality to a point that they'd never take a step back in their life to sit and wonder if there's any way they can stop being so fucking upsetting to their EMPOC comrades.
Like I said in this comment,, white Hexbears are not some heightened level of better or less performative than your typical white leftist you'll find anywhere else.
I've been being more and more diligent with the job search and even went about ways of thinking outside the box to see if I can have a more solid chance at landing a gig. Once I actually get a job in the capacity to care for myself, the pattern will stay the same: I will only use this site for c/em_poc and c/mutual_aid, but in this case, I hope I can start using the latter more as a donor than a recipient. Unfortunately, the trans clinic job did not accept me.
It's really sad for me to sit here and reflect on the fact that, though I'm a newish user, I've heard of many past incidences of EMPOC Hexbears leaving this site because of this shit. It's really depressing, but it's not shocking, and it's not like it's any bit reasonable for me to expect this site to ever get any better about it.
