Do you know someone suffering from WSS? They might centre themselves, proclaim to care about BIPOC, but actually have little substantial actions behind those words & become fragile when confronted, thus becoming a "poor victim, who was only trying to help." They make make Statements such as "My partner is BIPOC, my child/grandchild/best friend is BIPOC, so I understand." They don't though and they won't...ever. This saviourism is racist and it reinforces oppression and continues injustices thus preventing any real changes.

Then at #AMPA2021 today, there was a continuation of colonial, whyte privilege on stolen land that violated Human Rights, harmed Black, Indigenous and racialized members & broke rules of democracy, prioritizing $ over people & R&F. Stop being performative & racist OSSTF. Typical privilege: make rules up that ONLY make those with power and privilege comfortable and benefit from. Use stalling tactics to silence oppressed members. Fake whyte tears to pretend you are somehow a "victim," of what? Who knows?
