Oh, you!

I am a white woman 60 years old and I live in Alabama where I was born. I have never been offended by anything you’ve written that I’ve read, Mr. Harriot. Saddened...but Not Butt-Hurt. You do You, You are doing that Real Good!

Mr. Harriot: I stumbled across your article in The Root. I just wanted to let you know how unimpressed I was.

Two things:

Sounds like maybe you should go buy a hosting package & domain then.

We should also recognize Phillip Drummond for saving those two children in Harlem from a terrible existence of drugs, gangs, and other hardships associated with living in the inner city.

Oh look, another day in which we get to consider whether our leaders are actually evil or merely incompetent. How unexpected.

no one in their right mind would ever fuck them?

While everyone else is pointing out that you’re a shithead, I’m just going to point out that you think DUCKWORTH is a Thai name.

Honestly Mrs Malkin you if you were not pretending to be white all the time you could learn so much about Asian Americans immigrants.

^^^ This. Most police models are designed to idle for hours without overheating precisely because they do this regularly.

This one pegs the bullshit meter to the max. I used to live in Texas and had an Impala. Sitting in traffic in 105 degree heat with dew points near 90 degrees had zero effect on how hot the engine ran. Police cars have upgraded cooling systems to help them deal with being used harder than civilian cars. They’re…

I only trust the word of tax dodging, slave owning, white men born almost 300 years ago too.

Gosh, if it wasn’t written by the founding fathers, it can’t be something we agree with. After all, the founding fathers were Ordained by God in All Words Spoken right?

“In God We Trust” wasn’t written by the founding fathers either, but the fact that it’s on our currency is constantly used by people as “evidence” that our country is supposedly intended to be non-secular.

good thing they burned the poem immediately after it was written instead of posting it up on our country’s front door and using it in elementary schools to explain how our country works to EVERYONE who’s ever grown up here... otherwise, it might mean something.

I know. I’m not famous (like super not famous) but the idea that it’s cool for a company to be like “Hey, Sehjma, thanks for ordering <potentially embarrassing thing> from us!” all over their social media is...not cool.

I agree. Also, this type of shaming is coming from a bad angle that just renders the whole thing embarrassing.
