It really bothers me that I can't properly articulate why this irks me or a come up with a better alternative

Well because for one thing while discrimination is discrimination
Its the equivalent of saying we dont want to see suzy because she dyed her hair purple vs we dont want to see jacob because he has lazy eye
There is a level of discrimination that goes past the threshold of preference andninyo predjudice and unwarranted unfair treatment based on something out of their control
We talk about ppul outing other people but if there is a need to out them they were able to keep it hidden in some fashion and spare themselves the aim of discrimination
Visibly black people and peoole with visible disabilities do not have that option
They have no way to shield themselves from discriination because it cant be hidden
So they are subject to more discrimination more unfair treatment based on the assesment of them by ppul with power to discriminate
White gays felt the sting of discrimination based on the reactions of voluntarily revealing their lifestyle and began to feel like discriminated blacks even with their white privilege and they thought they could hop again on the backs of blacks and reversal black struggle into theirs
And blacks seeking allies anywhere they can get it allow it because they feel it is a group of whites who understand them
No
That is a group of whites who feel they should be above u still and are willing to align if it helps them do that
Preety soon black issues and discrimination get eclipses by white ppul problems and dashed privilege while yet again standing on their shoulders keeping them down while they do it
Now a black discrimination discussion is a retort for gays
No bby
