No! Everyone can wear it. To me, it’s a sign of solidarity. Plus, white people can be harassed too because they are gay, female, disabled, a refugee, wearing a hijab, whatever and in need of support.

Yep, this is why this election was such a big deal. This is best way to deal with them.
I’ve actually heard people in the muslim and LGBTQ communities in more rural areas say that they really appreciate the safety pins. It’s both a sign of solidarity and helps them feel better. If nothing else, it starts conversations among white people and that’s going to be important. As a WOC, there are conversations…
Okay, so white people (and others, including friends of color, and men in general) should not try to let vulnerable people know they are on their side?
Oh please. I’m a teacher and a white male. And if one of my students is in distress, I will help them. If my wearing a safety pin enables them to recognize me as someone to turn to, then I goddamn well will wear a safety pin. I’m in a good position to know resources to which they can turn. Of course there will be…
You do know a whole bunch of other people voted for him right? That only 25% of those eligible to vote voted for him right? It’s not like every white woman up & screwed the rest of us over. It sucks they voted for him, but no where near a majority of men or women voted for him. If you want to get made get mad at…
I’m very disappointed with Bernie’s responses and nearly broke my tv and remote the other morning when Michael Moore was going on about poor misunderstood white men.
I hope pieces literally break off of him as he realizes nothing’s what he thought it was.
I’m so worried that we’ll all end up talking like him. It would be bigly embarrassing.
my stepfather broke down on the day Trump was elected and confessed to us that he is undocumented. he was able to leave safely today morning and he’s returning to his home country via Canada. my mom will leave soon after to join him. we’re fortunate to be economically stable, and i have to stop myself from thinking of…
I was just reading it out loud to my husband and said I can’t believe this is coming from our future President. Unreal.
He speaks like the Alzheimer’s patients I used to care for.
I will enjoy watching that fucker age until he delisinigrates. He already looks 90.
I never handled it well because racist/xenophobic bullying really makes you feel like you’re alone in the world. When you’re bullied for liking video games or something like that you can kind of fall back on having other people in the school who like games, but when you’re the only other person from a specific country…
Yeah, but then you get Pence.
I give him three months before he goes, “Fuck this. I am outta here.” This is a man who has been handed everything to him on a silver platter his entire life. He didn’t have to roll up his sleeves and work his knuckles to the bone for anything. And now he is going to take what is arguably the most stressful and…
Yup, people keep saying racism is worst than misogyny. I don’t care to win the Oppression Olympics. I think losing that race is great.
BRITAIN: Brexit is the stupidest, most self-destructive act a country could undertake. USA: Hold my beer.
It’s the work of a lot of stupid people across this country with heavy concentrations in Wisconsin, Iowa, North Carolina, Ohio and Florida.
We are FUCKED! This is the end. America is more sexist than racist apparently. Either the silent majority showed up in droves or people lied about not voting for him. Sigh is right.
