I’m not “offended” by the shit people say–I am harmed by it. When you complain about having to be “PC,” you are saying that you are perfectly fine with hurting people and supporting cultural systems that cause tangible harm to certain populations.
Amennnnnn

“Yeah, why are you so full of hatred? I mean, you only get called derogative terms multiple times a day and you’re systematically oppressed as PoC, and white people constantly undermine you and invalidate your feelings and opinions. Why are you mad?”

What about the prejudice in being bi-racial? I mean I'm half native and I deal with a lot of discrimination and mockery because of it. I can't speak for everyone, but most "halfbreeds"(as people like to say) I've met deal with a lot of unfair treatment for being the way we are, so I'm sure you've experienced the same.

I have had my share as I am sure every biracial and mixed race person has. I am in no way trying to say mixed race people do not experience racism; of course they can and do.
I just meant that I personally feel uncomfortable when people consider me a person of color because I have white passing privileges. I could leave this life, bleach my hair, and never mention being native again and I doubt anyone would contradict me. I do not experience racism on the same level that other PoC do.
