If you do not understand racism (white supremacy) and how it works, everything else you understand will only confuse you. - Neely Fuller

We need something to clarify everything for us, because we get confused...but if we use the concept of Asili, we will understand that whatever it is they are doing, whatever terms they use, however they come at you, you need to be thinking about what? How is this going to facilitate their power and help them to dominate me? -Marimba Ani

Like Trying To Find Lint On A Cotton Plantation...

...so also is it crazy and a waste of time to continue parsing racist collectives into good and bad and by degrees of their racist contributions.

There might indeed be rare scant pieces of lint in cotton fields, but no one cares except the cotton, because then you'll spend less time focusing on the bulk of what exists dealing with it for what it is and taking it out of its natural environment.

If lint wanted to save itself from the same treatment and fate of cotton, then it's up to lint to show itself, make itself clearly known and stand out like a sore thumb so that it is easily noticeable from afar and not just upon closer magnifying glass assisted inspection. Besides, a lot of lint was born as cotton, so treating lint differently would still require me giving up my benefit of the doubt. Why should I take that risk?
If different and it wanted to be treated differently, lint would remove itself from the cotton environment.

It is not for the reaper to give lint the benefit of the doubt. The onus is on lint and not on trying to give different consideration to something that is right where it wants to be, in a cotton blend.
