    Appears to be an african american lady telling everyone they’re fine to be what they are.

    Both were on the same day

    Frankly I can find better reasons to mute that account, it’s a constant stream of lists, memes, etc… but racism doesn’t appear to be one of them.

    edit: just like to congratulate OP on rage baiting lemmy by failing to investigate the account for context. It matters.

      That a black lady didn’t hear the dogwhistles doesn’t mean it wasn’t there.

      Or even if she did, and had just fallen for the propaganda.

      If, as a random example, a famous black celebrity were to wear a shirt saying “White Lives Matter” would you have the same reaction?

        Feel free to rage on. Meanwhile, none of you actually looked to see what was going on there.

          Good on you for investigating the surface level of the situation, bro, sadly, it turns out that that things can be a bit more complicated than that.
