I hope he does. Keep on keeping on.

No fan of Cruz, but stop and think about some things... He left before the rain. He's overseas when it happens. No one knew how bad it would be. What can he do that he can't do remotely? Are you expecting him to go searching? He wouldn't do that if he was there!

Sensationalism is not journalism.

Oh, wait. I think I get it. I should feel shame because of how my ancestors took over this country and made it profitable for some whites, while I get no perks from it. Am I wrong on that?
June 3, 2025 at 5:48 PM
Did I benefit from what? I don’t think I’ve “benefited” in over a decade. I’m not even middle class now. Please explain what you mean. Thanks.

Sorry for my delayed response. Really hoping you can help me understand, because I’m not. Where I’m coming from is, should all Russians feel responsible for Ukraine? All Indians for Pakistan? All Israelis for Gaza? There are things citizens can’t control. Just need to know why I’m missing the point.

Not saying what they are doing is not wrong. I think it is. I understand it’s a majority (if not 100%) of whites doing it. But to put the blame on a whole race for what some of that race is doing doesn’t make sense to me. I hope you’re still here in the future. And I thank you for your engagement.
June 3, 2025 at 5:10 PM
Yeah, but you should. The whole point of engagement is understanding, right? Your question, "Who did I vote for?", I feel, was not relevant to my original question. Yet I answered. I'd love to understand why you asked that question. I'm happy for you as well. Nothing "happened", no worries. Be safe.

Eric Adams, Mayor of NYC. Caught taking money from Turkey and then… it went away. Who should be held responsible for that? All blacks, because he’s a black man? All whites, because some white folks gave him a pass?

Hope you get where I’m coming from. And I’d love to understand your pov. Thanks.
June 2, 2025 at 5:23 PM
I’ve answered your question, but I’d love you to answer my original question, that has nothing to do with who I voted for: why should I, as a white male, feel responsible for what other whites are doing?

So sorry. I don’t have notifications for Bluesky turned on so my response is not “QUICKLY.”

While I will say I voted for Harris, I’m sure the next question would be, “Did I go knock on doors or pass out flyers?” No. I didn’t. I live in a Southern state and I know how the Electoral College works.

Well, I guess this my first Bluesky block…

Seriously though, who do you interpret as “us”? Honestly asking a genuine question.
June 1, 2025 at 9:31 AM
Not sure what my “fellow know it all whire folk” means.

And you engaged with me first. What do you mean by “us”? I asked a question to the original poster and responded to replies.

I’m asking a simple question and people seem to be getting bent out of shape by it instead of answering it.
June 1, 2025 at 9:28 AM
No. It’s not your job to educate me. This is the first time I’ve engaged with you. But I would expect an explanation from the original poster.

And why the hostility? Wtf?
June 1, 2025 at 9:03 AM
And the only answer I ever got was “it’s in the comments” or “look it up”. That doesn’t help.
June 1, 2025 at 8:31 AM
I did ask a question, “why should I feel responsible for what ICE is doing if I didn’t vote for it?”

I haven’t lied. Not at all. I hate that we can’t have a conversation without turning on each other. That’s the main problem with this country.
June 1, 2025 at 8:31 AM
Why are you so bitter? I asked a question and it leads to this? Why pull a Trump? I’m sorry if I offended you.
June 1, 2025 at 8:10 AM
So, you feel responsible for what ICE is doing as well? Okay.
June 1, 2025 at 8:04 AM
1. I thought you responded to me enough, but you continue.
2. “Only white people do.” Classy. Replace that adjective with another.
3. I’m simply asking why all white people should feel responsible for what’s happening with ICE. And I can’t get an answer. From anyone. “Look it up.” I’ve tried.
June 1, 2025 at 7:45 AM
I agree 100%. And I would love to see some kind of material that says why, as a white male, I should feel responsible for something I had no control over. Please show me one. Not trying to be a dick, I would love to read it and I don’t know where to find such a thing. Thanks.

June 1, 2025 at 7:31 AM
I disagree. Unless it’s government hurting us, I don’t think all whites can come together and agree on anything. I do think we should be able to separate ourselves from what has come before. We all don’t think alike.
