Anyway, Scott believes that he can work across the aisle to overhaul policing of black communities—unless, of course, this involves same-sex marriages or abortions or fiscal irresponsibility by Democrats or Obama or striking while on food stamps; then Scott is not the nigga you want handling any of this.

You forgot “Continue shoving fascist business-loving fetuses with a JD into permanent federal judiciary positions”

Honestly I’m sick of how many times “Defund the Police” needs to be spelled out. Sure, we can’t put “equalize the budgets, stop giving the C-students from high school tanks, use social services for social issues more, and right the ship of American Law Enforcement from the days where the police were glorified black…

Oh no, see: those cops are typically Still Good because they aren’t running them over with vehicles and shooting them in their faces with rubber bullets or pushing them into concrete or tear gassing them an inch from their faces. Also they’re more forceful when *those* people aren’t social distancing so the ones who…

Leaving the end to Ms. Jones... yes. The whole segment was just the tip of the iceberg - Problem Areas did a lot regarding this subject in their first season. There needs to be a colon cleanse of the entire system, from unions that feel incentivized to protect the rancid along with the ‘oh, shit happens’ instead of…

Funny... those pearl clutchers who bitched about Obama going back to his home state every now and then are suddenly quiet...

He loves his base and his base genuinely want to believe in the myth that All Cops Are Good and Just instead of a collection of humans that would push an old white guy and crack his head like a melon and not even check on him. Better to turn his contemporary into a villian than come out and say “hey, too many cops…

I see it, really - I do. But: the use of extensions/hair pieces at the expense of the poor and under-aware supercedes race: sure, black women have been known for our wigs and pieces for conformity*, but the lush manes of white celebrities and wealthy people? Same places, dyed in different ways. Lush locks on Asian…

I remember seeing a story in Huffington Post about Indian colorism, specifically why the first Indian Miss America would’ve never won a beauty competition had she been born in India and had participated in their circuits for Miss India. Colorism is a motherfucker - here, there, and everywhere. Our internalization of…

I wonder if, as he thinks of his dear grandpas, he also thought of the shitloads of opportunity provided to them both as white soldiers returning home, with education and housing and other stuff to soothe their traumas while their black contemporaries who were the grandpas of his teammates came home to be called…

The trivial, though, is where our blackness/otherness is so often ignored/erased. And those little things snowball to the big things. 

Shame because she sure does have pipes, but she’s never been talented enough to be a shitty human being.

This was a beautiful turn of phrase.

Sadly we now live in a world where “it’s on tape” barely counts for enough and dumb fucks would waste oxygen bitching about the tape’s legality

Seven episodes in and for a first season I liked it, but can see why it wouldn’t be for everyone.

I feel like it sort of is, just on a smaller level. Basically what happens when nonpartisan portions of the government are forced to enact some shit they can’t go “uhhhh no” to.

“In the arms of a Target.

Yeah.... no. I mean I get it, woo - Jesus, Buddha, Mohammad, et al: don’t be a dick is basically rule #1 for all religions and just a good way to live life. But - no. It’s rude, for one - who says folks weren’t already praying for those four to atone/comply for the need for justice/spend the remainder of their lives…

And Sexy Jesus did his WOD because he wished a ** would... but seriously, Jesus and MLK were two defanged for the story, not the history.

I did remember that question coming up when that article came out - what’s in it for Asian and Asian-American women to be with alt-right racists, particularly ones that are likely to denigrate them, their fathers, and even the children they have together with them. Still curious, honestly. Sorry your mom said that,…
