The electoral college didn’t just pop up last year. It’s been around for a couple of centuries, the parties, and the people know what needs to be done to win. 53% of white women who voted, voted for this racist piece of shit who is currently squatting in the White House don’t pretend that’s not something that needs to…

It’s cute that you think it’s an impression.

I don’t suppose it occurred to you that maybe someone has to confront people out in the open because when you try to approach them at times that are more “appropriate” they put you off and change the subject.

And even more important – what is the course forward? What do white women plan to DO about that?

Several years ago conservatives were pissed about a similar report detailing the threat of right-wing violence. They complained about it mightily and Obama backed off. So the idea that they’re equally investigating is bullshit. They aren’t actually investigating both sides equally and frankly shouldn’t be because the…

I don’t get this special kind of hate you’re talking about. You will hear fairly pointed commentary but then we don’t have a movement of men trying to convince us that it’s only white women who are involved in upholding white supremacy contrary to what our experiences and the evidence shows up so there’s that.

So basically you didn’t agree with people calling her out on the trans thing and are claiming disrespect where there wasn’t any.

Actually, you were criticized over what you agreed with.

Yes well, talking to the ignorant is an unfortunate side effect of living in a country full of bigots and people who think they aren’t one.

My apologies in advance Banestar because this comment isn’t directed at you. However, meteor scented bullshit is a bit of a coward and is shit at reading for comprehension and since what she dismissed bears repeating and I figured you’d leave the comment intact so I’m leaving it here.

That the opinion was spewed by a troll doesn’t really make your agreement with it less problematic.

Try learning to read since apparently, you’re not good at it.

Treated how? Because for the most part she is well spoken of except for that time when she did some transphobic shit and then was (correctly) read for that bullshit.

You think these women aren’t attaching themselves to these men for the power and the resources such power brings? They are and it’s just as problematic. It’s not just women who don’t care about feminism who are the problem and you seem to be ignoring that. Plenty of problematic white women also call themselves…

Letting white women know that they are more complicit than they think they are is not hating on white women. White men are not upholding white supremacy by themselves. Racism is held up by white people (and the PoC who do their dirty work for them.) The white women in question are claiming that they want to be…

And yet you have the balls to think that you’re owed something at The Root. Nobody owes you a lesson but you clearly you think you’re entitled to go to a site that caters to someone else and bitch about not getting the lesson you so wanted. Being autodidactic is a thing you might try it rather than assuming that PoC…

Well, the complaints are about The Root. Quite frankly, considering the events of yesterday I find it in extremely poor taste for white people to come here to complain about the content and commenters of a sub-blog that caters to people of color because they don’t think that the people there are nice enough to white…

As opposed to Jezebel where the language is always clean and respectable, you never call people names, (like bottom-feeder you do know that that’s calling someone a name don’t you?) and never ever do things that make WoC feel unwelcome because your intersectionality is always on point?

As opposed to the one that was in The Muse?

You are still sounding all #NotAllWhitePeople there. Ironic since I know you don’t much take kindly to men #NotAllMen-ing you in these comments.
