I have not met a single BIPOC individual who supports America's foreign policy, have you?
Kamala Harris literally campaigned on maintaining the US's status as the most lethal military in the world
I haven't met Kamala Harris. If you use one establishment Democrat to inform your opinion of all black people, you're probably going to end up inexcusably ignorant.
The cure is ignorance is fostering friendships with people on a personal level, listen with the intent of understanding their struggle. Leftist spaces are not doing a good enough job of giving black voices a space and y'all are using Kamala as your excuse to keep it that way.
I've worked with countless BIPOC people who were proud members of the US military
USAmericans are not "all black people"
You are right, I was wrong, I should have said "all black Americans".
You don't have to deal with internalized racism because you could put out a good dunk instead.
Correcting USAmerican centrism is not a "dunk"
yes lmao all the time
That's really weird, do you live in a super conservative area that happens to have black and indigenous people that talk foreign policy to people very quickly after meeting them?
I live in a very diverse, working class, mostly leftist area, all of my friendship circles are extremely critical of America's foreign policy.
Why is your local community so pro-Imperialism?
I work and I meet all sorts of people, I'm not going to argue with you
