Gotta love all the butt hurt

“As a feminist, I think it’s time we started treating men and women more equally. And I absolutely would slap the fuck out of a dude that was provoking me.”

I notice that you say we should treat men and women equally, then follow it up with an example where YOU are committing the violence. You sure you’re ok with this…

“Women are not infants. We’re accountable for the shit we talk, and accountable includes the potential consequences of deliberately provoking people.”

Great opinion and all, but just being AWAKE in the last few years shows that society and the law view that in a completely different way.

It’s 2017. You go onto a bus, everyone has a camera with them. Some extended yelling starts, someone is PROBABLY taking out their phone to take a video. If not for evidence of a crime, just to send to some friends for a laugh like “look what happened to me on the bus!”.

So an old, white woman starts berating a black…

I believe I got the wrong intention from your post on further reading. My apologies.

You shouldn’t post comments on articles for people to see and not expect some response or people calling you out for lack of response.

“grow a thicker skin”

“People should be picking trash up in their neighborhood regardless of what is going on around them and should not be seeking attention for it.”

Again, you’re baseless accusations that this person MUST be doing such things for their own good feelings is cynical and not grounded in any proof. Continue being bitter and alienating people!

More avoidance! You’re good at this.

Your response: “lets dilute this a little more so i can avoid answering the question again”

“You’re right. Most white people who read about this will applaud her effort, move on to a Katy Perry story or junk food quiz. And forget it.” 

Your hypocritical generalization about white peoples ability to care about issues is so comforting. Im glad you can speak for all of them all by yourself!

BTW, issues can be…

Nobody is opposed, its just a notice of the general deflection that she did something selflessly good in an attempt to raise awareness to a focus on some tired ass narrative thats ingrained into our society that her actions couldnt fix anyhow.

Its like telling a kid thats picking up the trash in their local…

“Some of it is people just wanting to force the shoe on the other foot. “

“Here! Put this shoe on YOUR foot, even though we know its a completely wrong and horrible thing to experience and all you did to earn it was to try and be an ally!”

Get fucked.  

“ So what should white people do? Grow thicker skin and realize that, while these endeavors are good at reaching wypipo, you should never expect a standing ovation from black people.”

So basically “deal with our unreasonable expectations that the actions you take will be perfect through the lens of all of us, and if…

This takes “black people as the victim” to the furthest degree Ive ever seen. This woman asked for no recognition, no pat on the back from black people. She was speaking to white people, as a white person, about something she felt strongly about.

Yeah, we get it, black people are all too aware of white privilege, that…

“Hillary was the best thing to happen to America since FDR. She’s done way more for black women than Obama ever did.”

“but they won’t change the underlying logic or ideology that places Black folk at the bottom of the social, economic, and racial hierarchy.”

Uh, who gives a fuck how harshly Cosby is portrayed? He drugged and raped 50 women. He can go get fucked in the court of public opinion for whatever reason they have. He’s scum. Racism having a role in it doesn’t matter. Yeah, maybe white people that do such crimes should be derided as much. So what? Cosby is getting…

The difference with Ben Roethlisberger is that his court case was settled out of court. His case is over. The public still regularly references it and belittles him for it. He has far from distanced himself from it. Stations in Pittsburgh and official NFL related media obviously shy away from bringing it up because…
