White folks are used to being polite and accommodating to cops. Do not fall into your old ways. For once, your silence will not be violence. STFU if the cops come looking for your neighbours. No matter how friendly.

Fascism only works if we go along with it. Fascism only works if we surrender to it. Resist. Do not say a word about your neighbours. As far as the cops are concerned you’re a recluse who doesn’t talk to anybody where you live."

"Fascist raids by law enforcement should be met with:

I don’t know.

I can’t help.

I do not know anybody’s legal status.

I have no idea who is an immigrant.

Why is it okay to group white people together and not any other race? Its an economic/historic thing, not a race thing. It also varies by country and geography. Stop being racist. Stop being racist. Stop being racist.

Hey maybe try to have more good faith when engaging with posts like this. They do not have to #notallwhites to get the benefit of doubt that they are aware that ehite folks can be and are allies

Or just leave my race out of it and call out the actual people who are doing the bad? Novel idea.

This isn't about you.

White people's race does play into this, same as non-white people's race does. If you're white (passing) it's unlikely the ice is gonna show up and throw you into a van.

Trying to make this about you is shit. Nobody cares.

They made it about me when they called out "white people" as a whole

My man, very very little is being asked of you and your response is to lecture about how wrong the askers are in their asking. Are you going to be an ally to people in need or are you going to be an ally to whiteness?
