You are projecting. Trump has no point and never did and never will.

Also thank you for this. This summer has been a beat down on our souls.
Well said.
I’m going to say someting melodramatic here - I’m dying, and thus I won’t be here in say, the next twenty years. But shush now. I have a long, long post here. It’s aimed at you Millennial snotterbag. Listen up, please (and stop chewing that gum, you in the purple hoodie. I know where you live...)
Apologies, maybe I’m not being clear enough. If, as you say, “she simply never gave it much thought or cared beyond her own personal experiences until now.”...then she is complicit.
Do people really memorize the entire lyrics of songs? Maybe this is something I missed out on because I’m partially deaf and have struggled with a lot of lyrics over the years, but unless the song is playing I can only ever remember a few words to any song lyric.
I can’t get worked up over this because I never had any expectations, so I appreciate the thoughtfulness in her post. She laid out her case it out and hopefully moved some voters. She’s not claiming to be Alyssa Milano all the sudden, and the majority of Pop/R&B and Hip-Hop acts aren’t saying much about anything as…
It’s quite possible to welcome her comments at this time while also acknowledging that it appears to have taken her this long to suddenly realize that bigotry and racism exist - which is either a sign of sheer privilege or total self-absorption.
The senators who ignore rape culture also ignore racism. The homophobic lawmakers are also usually willing to pass anti-black laws. The ones who take away women’s rights also take away non-white people rights, health care and equal opportunity. We have to fight it all.
Funniest shit I ever saw was some white talking head on Fox & Friends scolding Taylor Swift saying he always preferred Kanye. For real bitch? You probably can’t name any other hip hop artist in the history of the genre and if someone put a gun to your head and threatened to end your life unless you recited a whole…
I know you shouldn’t invite trouble, but I almost wish this would get cross-posted to Jez. All the ‘yaaaaaass’ing going on over there... This is still the same person who never spoke out against the Nazis who were loudly praising her, and who got “political” only when her tour’s winding down and the money's in the…
The fault does not lie solely at the feet of the 53 percent of white women who voted for Trump. It belongs to people who are cool with a pussy-grabbing, dim-witted, racist buffoon until he threatens the peace, safety and prosperity of people who look like them. It belongs to the people who are apathetic about…
This bitch is racist fucking trash, her husband is racist fucking trash and both of them are fucking liars.
Having a baby makes you racist?
Yup. A white woman pulling that sort of whiny, teary, belligerent nonsense would be called “hysterical” or “over-emotional”. A black woman trying that BS would be called “angry”. A black man acting that way would be viewed as a threat and the cops would be called.
This is so true. One of my friends has been aghast at his performance yesterday and is convinced this will be the end of him. I said, oh no. He ticked off every box of the entitled white man list. The phrase busted my butt was said specifically to make him the Every White Man. So, he went to an expensive, tony prep…
Kavanaugh was whiny, belligerent and entitled in a way that is acceptable not only from white males but very specifically from middle-aged white males from a prep school and Ivy League background and conservative political bent. A 20- or 80-year-old might get away with (not necessarily the same) parts of it, a…
“That laughter exists on a continuum—it’s the same laughter men share after they’ve appraised your body publicly. The catcalls and lewd comments they hurl your way are a performance for the men around them: your body just a platform for them to bond over. It’s an act of performed masculinity, which in a public setting…
Incoming 4,000 think pieces (by white people) about “how could this happen?” (because white people) hand-wringing about how everyone else is doing them dirty and not because the majority of white people voted for this shit.
Some white folks are straight up trash no matter what class level they’re in. If anyone of any race comes to me and the first thing that they tell me is a race joke, I’m out. That’s not something that my mind looks at as apart of the bonding process.
