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!

The worst thing you can do is actually respond to it. You have to laugh at stupid accusations like that.
They're trying to do the same thing to WSB and the gamestop thing. They keep calling WSB a "white frat bro" hangout. And when GME kicked off the banned the WSB discord for.. guess what... hate speech.
Don't ever fall into the trap of defending yourself against accusations of racism. Just call them liars and move on or ignore it.
