I didn’t know a thing about the org so I went from the post to the bio and I clicked their site link. I got there and I had to read the form on page three times because I thought it was some kind of meta-meta-meta(-meta?) commentary. And humor maybe? WTF.
It finally twigged for me that it’s just super-duper turbolib shit.
critical defense of surj:
it dates to the earliest days of black lives matter when performative allyship was actually in vogue, and it attracted a lot of people with good intentions who felt it was inappropriate to, uh, appropriate black lives matter. imagine a town that’s 9/10 white or more but very progressive, and all the “activists” are also white. so they formed “standing up for racial justice” and, in a move that is straight out of 2014, almost immediately rebranded as “showing up for racial justice” because they didn’t want to be ableist.
I think it was founded with good intentions, but they are (imho) too focused on electoralism.
they’re not backing platner because he’s a Nazi: they either haven’t heard or don’t believe it. but!!! yea, this is problematic as fuck (another 2014ism for you.)
Patiently waiting for the “buhhh we didn’t know” from all the ‘leftists’ supporting him (Hasan, Felix, etc) when this dude gets elected and he immediately votes for some anti-left shit lmao
pro-working class
Dude’s job was literally to murder working class people for money. He loved it as well
Were they white, though?

A Political Home for White People
No fucking way they actually wrote this and still talk about their antiracist activism

We must secure future existence of a home for white people working for justice
Oof.
One communist’s bit idea is a liberal’s truth.
That’s what makes them good bits, their potential to be real.
From their site
Calling people in is how we want to be with one another as white people.
A home for white people working for justice
A liberal org, that calls itself a home for white people, claims to oppose racism and says you should vote for the veteran war criminal with the Nazi tattoo. That’s a bit too on the nose.
The white moderate and its consequences…
there’s no way they didn’t realize how terrible “a home for white people” sounds
Woke: “A space for white bodies”
Anti-woke: “a future for white children”
Centrism: this, I guess
MAYOCIDE NOW PLEASE
This sounds exactly like a group for people with problematic tweets from 2014. 0% chance this group wasn’t started by a standup comedian who was complaining about Trump and then everyone found old clips of racial slurs from like 2012.
What the fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck?
