I live in a small town where I have neighbors who fly confederate flags in their front yard despite never having been within 1,500 miles of a confederate state. I don’t need you to tell me what racists are like, thank you very much. Maybe it’s a regional thing or something, but I guarantee that there are a lot of racists in America who do not want to save anyone from anything. They just want to pretend that everyone is just like them, and get very, very mad when they’re reminded that other people exist.
You’d certainly think so if you only saw racism in the form of tweets. I live in a racist shithole. I know real racists. None of them care about any of that. None of them think about any of that. They might at most retweet something like that, and even then it’d only be to complain about taxes. None of them are actually thinking about Africa in their free time.
I don’t know what to tell you. I know a lot of people who will happily spout off some of the nastiest things you’ve ever heard about “those people”, but none of them want to save anything. They just want to be left alone in their own little world where they can pretend that if everyone was just like them there wouldn’t be any problems in the world. They just get mad if you make them try to think about what they believe.
Maybe it’s a regional difference, or maybe we just hang out in different racist circles. I dunno. I’ve never actually met a racist that cared about anyone outside of the US enough to have a white savior complex though. Around here they’d much rather sort people out by skin color and ship them to the continent that best matches their stereotypes and be done with ever even thinking about it.
Russia invented racist Americans as a psyop
Racist Americans aren’t tweeting about Africa. They aren’t thinking about Africa at all.
More like: They aren’t thinking
about Africaat all.Fair.
I unfortunately have to spend a considerable amount of time around racist Americans and you are very wrong.

Racist Americans are obsessed with being White Saviors, they think about Africa all the time

I also live in a racist shithole and all the ones I know give a fuck about feeding their white savior complex
