Seriously! I know way to many people who after the immediate circulation of police committing murder and people demanding justice for it, will post all kinds of bullshit memes about supporting our police no matter what. Like wtf is wrong with you that your brain is so under developed as to not be able to generally

It’s a good thing their opinions are irrelevant!!!

Yeah, I guess I wasn’t really keyed to it until after the superbowl. And then suddenly the crazies came out about how dare she sing a song and wear clothes that were a tribute to black people. And then everyone turned it into her being anti-police. It really just goes to show how prejudiced our society still is that

Seriously. The amount of white friends who I’ve personally had tell me a combination of how horrible the song is/how the lyrics mean nothing/how it’s unlistenable/how Beyonce doesn’t understand what she’s doing/how unimpressed they were/casually forgot Beyonce is black is depressing.

There’s a double standard here, too. White musicians wear Che Guevara t-shirts so much it’s a cliche and nobody thinks it’s much more than a fashion statement, but Beyoncé puts her dancers in black berets and suddenly she’s a full-on Black Panther? It’s ridiculous.

So, I think I’m not the only one who’s sad we don’t have a place to talk about what’s going on with the Scalia replacement situation here on Jez. You know, since he was a terror for women’s rights since the 80s. I made a place, in case people do want to discuss it.
