I’m saving this gif for future use when I just want to destroy everything.

Someone please tell me when we’re going to be free of this hairpiece.

Yep. I wouldn’t mind them having firefighters or paramedics show up instead. They’re better people.

They aren’t doing a great job if they are lol

Yeah, but I’m looking for some doublespeak that has the same weasely, negative connotation that “politically correct” has. Something petty, that doesn’t sound bad on its face and that we can pretend is a harmless term when really it’s a devastating read.

Yup. Believe it or not, she is 14. I thought she was older, too.

“What if a small child would have wondered into the path of this guys rage?”

“What other alternatives were there? Wait it out?”

Thank you for sharing. We need to hear about when cops do things right too, so we all don’t go crazy and so the other dumbass cops can learn.

I just found this but it doesn’t really look like Harriet Tubman to me and I think her name should be on it:

I’m so weary of my existence, my people, and my victories being reduced to “political correctness.” Is there a term other than “white privilege” to refer to unnecessary white default-ism? White oversaturation? White scourge? Whites all up in goddamn everything making me feel like I can’t fucking breathe?

YES YES YES YES. LET’S DO THIS. Somebody on Tumblr float the idea because those crazy kids get shit done and I need this to happen.

Replacing them with satues of indigenous people would be more appropriate imho. Even though Columbus’ “discovery” ushered in the era of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade so his legacy fucked us just as much as it fucked indigenous people, he’s celebrated for “discovering” *their* home, and that’s what all those statues…

“However, in this belated rush to disavow celebrating Cristoforo the colossal asshole, many have run too quickly to a bullshitastically moralistic hero in the narrative of Columbus’ reign—one even described glowingly above: Bartolomé de Las Casas.”

They’re the McPoyle siblings from It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia. They’re very... weird. But def more endearing than the Trumps.

I’m weird, and I like bugs (except for centipedes). I usually capture them and release them outside. Long story short, I have MORE sympathy for bugs than I do for this idiot.

Well-said.

Well, that’s how the Black Panthers came about. You could never get away with that today, though. Too much surveillance, and the police are militarized. People on the far right and the far left who actually think they can take up arms against the government are tripping.

I placed emphasis on the spurious terms you used to overemphasize the concept of authority when it comes to language. Just because a bunch of old men got together in a room and put together a couple of style guides doesn’t mean language suddenly became inflexible. Call vernacular changes “stupid” and “lazy” all you…

She’s not a person to the boys who did this, and that kills me.
