Considering how much righteous indignance people seemed to have here over the leggings incident I don’t think most folks here have a lot of self respect or at least don’t translate it to their wardrobe choices.

I cannot deal with how delicate we’re asked to be with people now. Emilia Clarke sounds like an idiotic princess who I can’t be bothered to do much more than eyeroll at, and Lucille here seems ready to burst into tears herself because we’re not willing to hold Emilia’s hand during her self-awareness journey? She’s

You can stand to be less of an asshole, you know. It’s kind of funny how you’re annoyed at the stance of the article and are talking about giving people space to realize themselves and then attacking other commenters for their opinions.

Okay. I didn’t realize how horrible and disdainful this person was treating you. They can catch this dismiss button if they keep responding to me.

I promise I am not being snarky, I am truly trying to understand. You say the average white Aussie hasn’t likely confronted racism in a personal sense. We hear that about Americans, as well. Do you not realize or discuss amongst yourselves the concepts of knowing your culture is the ruling entity and that your life

Going a little far, aren’t you? No one asked her to reincarnate or wear blackface. Have *you* committed to self-education? If so, you know step one is being self aware. She *is* experiencing racism-we all are. If, in your estimation she’d need to be a POC to truly know about it, where does that leave the bigots, the

I am educated, I am an engineer, I speak three languages and I am trapped in your country, because of that I have worked on almost every job, layering grass, washing dishes, being a waitress, I am a woman of colour and I know what I am talking about.

I am scrolling down while not believing it.

I’m out here in the streets, in the classroom, in the real world effectuating change. I’m super comfortable in my activism, my balls *and* my word. So here’s a free lesson, acknowledging ideology that elongates the time we must wait for any person to feel ready to treat us a reliable narrators of our own experiences

You can look at the words I used (it’s seriously not that many words) vs. the words you used to dismiss what I said by using critical thinking.

Admitting naivete by following up with something really naive.

More like, intersectional feminist writer: on top of bullshit dealt to WoC because of the color of their skin, they also deal with sexism and sometimes a gross combination.

there sure is a lot of whiteness excusing whiteness in this comment section on this day

I don’t remember ever hearing “jif” until the past 5 years or so, and I’m an Old, so I remember the 90s. I thought people were crazy when I first heard “jif.”

2 bedrooms?! You’ve no idea what a small apartment is.

I wonder how black locker room dildos feel about playing in Boston.

I see. White people gotta white ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

Yeah. and you know, Madonna was ACTUALLY raised Catholic and Catholicism is a big part of her heritage and upbringing, so she had every right to use Catholic imagery in her music.
