I think that’s more the problem though. It’s not that they tried to verify if he was someone even worth talking to, it was that they were dicks about it. I have no problem with a friendly salesperson coming up to me and slipping in a casual “so what do you do” as part of some polite small talk. But if you’re an ass…

It targets poor people in struggling areas. In the us, it is in majority non whites. Title like this one “sells” and make people even more racist and angry , at a time when we need unity and less racial tension.

“But that’s how white supremacy works - it’s insidious and even influences the minds of POC, encouraging them to take actions that uphold the whole system.”

You can’t do that. Same fucking person. He was just diagnosed. Say you feel sorry for him and his family or don’t say shit.

We need more stories like this. Politics isn’t all people who would shiv each other for any given lobbyist. Agree or disagree with policies, and I disagree with a lot of McCain’s, working with people and seeing them as human is not a weakness. I’d love to see Congress go back to being/become for all people a place…

You’re a tremendous asshole.

And yet, the reporter so triggered by Trump being a troll asked his Twitter followers if he should release the info anyway.

Because if you’re not frothing at the mouth over everything Trump says or does 24/7, you’re obviously a Trump supporter. Amazing logic there.

The guy who made that wrestling meme video that Trump tweeted out a few days ago? The one that both CNN and and this site were convinced was a call for violence against journalists instead of what it actually was (Trump being a stupid troll with a freaking meme video)?

So...we’re just gonna ignore the whole CNN blackmail story?

“White folk in rural Idaho need to wake the fuck up and admit that racism exists! How can they say it doesn’t touch their lives?!”

A response I received yesterday when talking about alienating potential allies:

Correct, she didn’t notice it.

I think it’s less “Isn’t she a hero?” so much as it’s “Look, it took her a while to get there, but she got there, Jezebel. Don’t let perfection be the enemy of progress.”

I’d argue that in fact, most white people are completely unaware in any meaningful way of “the machine” even while they’re in the act of using it. These cops aren’t saying “look, it’s a black guy, we can shoot him cuz he’s black!”; they’re legitimately afraid for their lives because they exist in a world which tells…

Are you educated? Because you seem to have slid right by this part:

I mean, you’re misreading the comments.

This entire blog is designed to “explain sexism to people.” Also, she didn’t equate her experience to racism, she compared it to racism.

Interesting! Funny though because it still proves that people do, in fact, need seemingly obvious things explained sometimes.

I think it might be a problem with the editing of the interview. They mention Brexit prior, so I think she is acknowledging she is quite privileged and recent events have opened her eyes to pervasiveness of both racism and sexism.
