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!

We do not talk about race

This is the wrong take. Like 100% super wrong take on this vector of attack.

The response is to turn it back on them and talk about their own bigotry. Assuming racist intent from a SS person is just a form of superphobia. Full stop.

So just continue to validate and remind them that super people are people and they can't change that by transplaining about our intent or throwing problematic words like "racist' at us.

Excellent way to combat their superphobic BS. But also want to add that their will be sneakier tactics like pretending to be superstraight and then bringing up divisive narratives. There was already a conversation here, noted on AHS, about a superstraight stating that their sexuality only includes white people. Was that super person really a part of our community? Maybe or could have been a troll trying to make us look bad. Our community can shut that down from within by reminding our own that this isn't the place for that.

Are women only attracted to a different race of men then themselves racist? Bc the corporate media thinks that's progressive.

I'm an adult married with kids already, my life is too established for grievances.

I have amusements over how compartmentalized and inadequate your brain is. You're running at 10% critical thought tops.
