Look, the nutheadgee thing I (and another person, who was a tiny bit faster) linked contains actual, direct examples. That's a black woman who flat out says "mixies need to be oppressed harder" under her own name, on her own social media (now in an archive because she deleted later) and with screencaps of her own Ao3 (because she's somehow convinced she's in the right).

I want that. Something clear and direct, not a vague "someone was racist to me". It really shouldn't be hard to get a screencap of an Ao3 comment with the n-word or literally ANYTHING.

Instead all I get is more vague bullshit. Literally none of the things that got linked here (except for the nutheadgee thing I and another coalie linked) are actual examples. Everything else is vague allegations with no direct examples or quotes or screencaps.

The dhobikikutti dreamwidth thing, for example, SAYS there was racism, but doesn't expand or explain or quote or ANYTHING. She never comes out and says a fellow volunteer used a slur, or ignored her, or anything direct. Just "there was racism" and then everyone is supposed to accept that with literally zero way to verify.
