One racist pattern particularly insidious in BSky's queer community: white people antagonize people of color until they react, and then reframe the discussion around that reaction. They use the reaction as proof of the person's "badness" and it becomes a new angle of attack (often the *main* one).

but i'm not surprised. when bsky was invite-only there were tons of popular white transfems on twitter organizing to prevent invite codes from going to BIPOC trans folks and keeping them only in white circles.
that shit caused me to leave way more than anything from musk.
I ended up accidentally getting a code from someone on the wrong side of that war, but she only revealed that to me afterward.
I am begging people for a crumb of self-reflection and maybe a few intensely examined thoughts per week.
