Just heard from an Indigenous spouter who is thinking about leaving here & it really hurts to see them going. I finally left the bird app yesterday b/c I reached my limit with the daily racism & other toxicity, but it's been frustrating to see the white grievance & toxicity creeping up here (cont'd)

So many of us are going through enough racusm and other intolerance in our offline lives, it takes a toll to have it hitting us in the face here. I came b/c of Chis B. & his vision. I know no social media is perfect, but it's frustrating nonetheless. I took a break for a few days (cont'd)

and I'm stepping away again for a wellness break after what I've seen these past couple days from some white spouters. Sometimes we get tired of explaining and teaching white people who just want to debate and stir up shit about things they don't understand. Listen more. Reflect before you spout🌛✨

🖐🏾😔It's been wearing on me. I know nothing is perfect and there's so much work to do. I'm just more weathered than usual this week. I finally left Twitter yesterday. I had high hopes for spoutible. It's been frustrating to see some of the problematic spouts & replies popping up more and more.
