"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

i just wish it'd be easier for me to help poc by dying honestly, i'm too much of a selfish removed to do it yknow?

that's still not helpful. I know I went on a rant against white Americans but some of them do end up becoming anomalies and can become real communists fighting for poc liberation and anti-imperialism, but those people are special, they're anomalies. you shouldn't conflate individuals with their class, like individual white people are responsible for their political inaction, it's just that their social class cannot be counted on to do anything, it's gotta be a poc movement. same reason why Palestinian liberation requires a Palestinian movement that centers Palestinians specifically.

anomalies or not we are still tainted yes? for example, one can still help the movement but as soon as imperialism is destroyed it would need to be disposed of given the westoid instinct to destroy can never be fixed into a proper human being idk i'm just frustrated again, i apologize for talking

that's just not true man, that's white guilt cringe. once the contradiction of imperialism has fallen from center stage westoids will have proletarian consciousness again. there will still be some racists, but working class white people could be counted on to develop revolutionary potential. race is a social construct created by imperialism/colonialism and it can change.
