According to family history, my aunt was a notoriously shy child to the point where she was often scolded for rudeness. I imagine Caroline has a similar situation. I was a shy kid too, who eventually learned how to hide it entirely (so now a lot of people seem surprised when I say I’m introverted—friendly and…

That’s certainly been what I’ve observed on Facebook. Not entirely, but overwhelmingly white (usually straight, but not always) men. And they say shit like, “Well, I’m voting for Trump if Bernie’s not the nominee!” and I just shrug and think, “Well, of course you fucking are. What do you really have to lose in a Trump…

Thank you. Bernie is the left wing version of Drumpf. He makes a bunch of promises, but can’t say how he’ll actually manage to make those things happen except executive orders, ignores women’s issues and minority issues, and basically is promising a unicorn farting rainbows to every voter, which he can never deliver.

“So cool he couldn’t even bother to find one woman to hire to one of the top ten most highly-paid positions in his campaign.”

Quick, someone write a book about it! Call it...hermmm.. the New Jim Crow?

I have two major takeaways from this:

Take Mary Jane off the Schedule I list and watch crime fall like leaves in October.

Follow up question that nobody ever asks: Why do you think your message is so well recieved among white supremacists?

How many times do people need to be told that the inherent implication behind black lives matter IS all lives matter?!?!

Except they are not both “a little different from the status quo.” A Jew in the White House would be “a little different” - like Kennedy being the first Catholic. A female President would be monumentally different. This not like comparing Honey Crisp and Red Delicious, and to pretend it is, is actually showing you…

I wish I could star this about 50 more times.

It’s the difference between punching up and punching down. EVERYTHING is made for white, straight, cis men. So they don’t have to rally their communities around anything, because it’s all just...theirs. By default.

I think most of the people are upset because it sets up a straw man that Hilary thinks she’s qualified because she’s a woman. Hillary thinks she’s qualified because of her experience, intelligence, skills, and plans, and a man wouldn’t have to put up with this kind of bullshit suggesting she’s just campaigning on her…

to be fair though Bernie doesn’t go around going I AM GOING TO BE THE FIRST JEWISH PRESIDENT, and instead specifically dodges questions about his faith. The quote fell flat because of the context of it, not because of the actual quote. The context in this situation is that there have been very politically powerful…

Yeah, guys, I’m not calling for a White Entertainment Network or a Men’s History Month, OR a straight pride parade, so what’s going on with your shit, guys?

Bernie Sanders has a plan to outlaw all period pain if you dum bitchez would just LISTEN!!11!

I wish you were right, but I’m afraid my Blue Lives Matter white hillbilly relatives have indeed lost their damn minds about Beyoncé. Because Breitbart told them to, basically.

It’s all well and good to express doubt about this being the white reaction to the song. But by claiming that “most white people have no opinion on this song,” you’re doing the same thing you accuse others of doing, i.e. speaking for a giant group of people whose views you really don’t know. Maybe you should stop to…

I’m whiter than chalk and generally ambivalent on Beyonce, and I thought the song was pretty good, the video was powerful, and her performance at the Super Bowl kicked ass. Unfortunately, I’ve had to explain why it’s not anti-cop and not “totally reverse racsim” to more than one equally white facebook friend though. :\
