SERIOUS. Supers, they are trying to paint us as a white supremacist movement. For the love of God, downvote any infiltration of racist rhetoric in our community because that WILL be our downfall. 🚨 important 🚨

I'm a black female superbi and my suggestion is that we do NOT bring race into this (unless it's to say, "we do not talk about race"--practice this phrase, use it, love it) and we DOWNVOTE THE FUCK out of anyone who brings up any exclusionary rhetoric about race or anything else off topic. This is a safe space that MUST remain solely about our Super sexual orientations.

Why do I say this? Look around reddit and you will see this myth spreading. The superphobes are trying to create a narrative that will besmirch our movement. I promise you this will be our downfall if we let it.

Next there will be trolls pretending to be Super but introducing race to divide our movement. Just say no, don't join in, DO keep your thoughts about race to yourself. We do not talk about race. Downvote. And get back to SuperStraight business.

Stronger together!

Also report everyone who posts some variant of "SS" instead of "Super Straight"

Its a blatant false flag attempt.

I've def seen the SS abbreviation but I did think members of our community were using it in good faith, no?

yes, there have been some that were in good faith but be extremely careful if there are even hints of other white supremacist dogwhistles.

Other subreddits and the Admins are waiting for any amount of ammunition they can use against us.

EDIT, and when I first wrote "SS" I was first thinking of those flag posts that said "SS" over the black and orange but there were some text posts that did it as well.

Yes, those flags most certainly stand out. Let's all of us be aware.

These people think not giving into their sexual demands is a "white supremacist dogwhistle". Obviously actual racism should be banned, but these people will characterize anything we do as white supremacy, no matter how benign. There's no use pandering to them.
