Prolly gonna be my one and only rwde post (cus the fanbase is rancid and I'm not rlly a rwby fan, just a person who watches the show): some of you rwby fans are too comfortable using your queerness as a shield to silence BIPOC voices about the racist writing and your 'precious' bigoted CRWBY. You guys unironically act/think that just because you have to deal with queerphobia; you are IMMUNE to being bigoted yourself and you are INCAPABLE of parroting bigoted beliefs.
Cus I know there will be a dumbass ant1-rwde posters who will try to drown out this post by saying its 'lies from the EVIL RWDE!!!': You would rather weaponize your queerness to bash on BIPOC voices, while claiming to care about our voices. You would rather be complicit with the racist writers and their racist writing, just because your racist writers gave you a queer ship. There is no shame nor issue in projecting the abused you suffered onto the characters, however you refuse to see through the characters and their writing through a BIPOC lens.
You do not get the right to impose your perspective of the characters at the expense of BIPOC voices, you do not get to twist our voices to be alt-right bigots because we called out RWBY's rampant racism. You do not get the right to say you give a shit about BIPOC and have #BLM in your bio when you fervently defend your bigoted company. You do not get to pretend to care about racism when you buy merch off of your bigoted company.
My fellow BIPOC (especially the queer BIPOC): why are you guys so comfortable dismissing your fellow poc about their discomfort with RWBY's racist writing? BIPOC are not a monolith with the same opinions about racism in media; but some of you guys are weirdly comfortable with turning a blind eye to your fellow BIPOC getting dogpiled by the white fandom.
We can and will disagree, you not agreeing as a BIPOC about RWBY's racist writing is not what I take issue with. The issue lies within you upholding the racial colourblindness in the fandom; like how the fandom was ok with throwing the racism under the bus in favour of queerness, you are ok with throwing your BIPOC peers under the bus for white queerness.
Sincerely, a POC who has been watching the fandoms rampant racism problem ever since 2019.

Aries: You can light up any room. Do not forget your power. You have magic in your veins my dear. Do not let anyone ever make you lose sight of that again.
Taurus: You have to forgive yourself. You don’t have to forgive them but you absolutely have to forgive the past you for the choices they didn’t know they were making. We still love you.
Gemini: I hope you can enjoy the blue sky again. I hope the ghosts don’t haunt you and follow you in your dreams like they use to.
Cancer: We can’t talk anymore. That has to be okay. Some people aren’t bad they are just bad for you . It doesn’t mean that either of you aren’t good people just that you need to not be in each other’s orbit.
Leo: Sometimes you have to accept that you did the best you could and sometimes it was just the wrong situation and wrong time. Sometimes the universe telling you no is a saving grace.
Virgo: You can’t just hide in the bottom of a bottle for the rest of your life. You can’t keep going back to the same addiction and the same person every time and expect a different result.
Libra: You have to sit and mend your own heart. Take the needle and thread and see your own wounds. No one is coming to save you this time, you have to save yourself.
Scorpio: focus on you. Stop trying to save anyone. Stop trying to fix them. Focus on you. Fix your shit first before you keep distracting yourself by using others as an escape
Sagittarius: Let yourself breathe again. Listen to your own heart beat and learn to fall in love with it. You are something wonderful and amazing and don’t let anyone trick you into believing otherwise.
Capricorn: You have to stop running away from everything. You have to stop panicking everything someone gets too close. You have to let yourself stay. As scary as it is you have to stay.
Aquarius: You don’t have to hide your pain forever. You don’t have to pretend that everything’s okay when you’re covered in bruises. You don’t have to cover your scars. It’s okay to show your pain. It’s okay to let us help you heal your hurt.
Pisces: You can’t let them dull you. You can’t just sink to their level because it’s easy. You need friends who push you and who make you better. You can’t just be with people who want you to get sicker
