Appalachia is at least 80% white. It is one of the least racially diverse places in the country. Trying to suggest I'm somehow being racist is fucking brain damaged - educate yourself on critical race theory.
Edit: Melungean is a slur by the way, congrats on outing yourself
Weird you're telling someone that something is a slur when you don't even know our culture or are even from here.
Get bent ya KKK brainwashed bigot, you're the one thinking people from Appalachia are all ignorant religious idiots.
Don't need to, wanna know why?
Ghosts. Aren't. Real. Monsters. Are. Human.
Actually, quick question - what's your skin color?
Stories. Shape. Culture. People. Are. Still. Spooked. By. Fiction. You. Bigot.
So you're white, got it.
Whatever dude, make what assumptions or ad homonyms you want, you're still a bigot.
Nope, enjoy your superstitions and acting like you're oppressed.
You're the idiot who read only the first line of a Wikipedia article and assumed something was a slur.
You're the one who thinks people from specific regions of the US are stupid because you fell for Confederate era propaganda.
You're the one who thinks religious people are stupid.
You're the one making negative assumptions on groups of people over things like race, heritage, religion, and location.
You don't get to say "nope" to being a bigot when you're basically textbook.
Superstitious people are stupid, religious people are hit or miss - they're pretty fucking stupid though, by and large.
I can absolutely say nope to all of this because I've heard only white people paint my problems as class struggles. You think you have any room to call me a bigot when you handwave minority issues under the big umbrella of 'class struggle'?
Nope, you're white and part of the people who are desperate to be oppressed - likely because you're a Christian with a victim complex.
'Reclaiming' words doesn't work - that's been proven to be true by the current state of the U.S. . It's historically a slur. Even if it had been reclaimed - you're white. Stop using it.
