Everything he accuses other people of doing, he does.

Best. Backstory. Ever.

They channeled the suburban pubescent rage, man.

Follow up: a quick internet search says show creator wanted her divorced, but they never mentioned it either way. Though I think since they say the boys’ mom dies and don’t mention the girls’ dad, we can assume. Unless Carol was—gasp—never married!

Almost 100% positive it’s mentioned in the pilot and then never mentioned again. My mom is an Uber fan and is pretty adamant about this. Boys’ mom is dead, girls’ dad is deadbeat (apparently).

Carol WAS divorced!

Yeah, I really don’t believe this story. If these two in the photo confirm it’s true, I’ll take my skepticism and shove it in my confusion box.

True. Although i’ve been witness to many a scuffle specifically instigated by the police.

Ha. Totally. I miss Obama. I’ll be happy to hear him speak should he choose to. But he doesn’t owe “the nation” one word more.

Gah that one makes my blood boil.

Thank you so much for this. This is very close to my experience with my white father, and I’m finally coming to the same conclusions about my relationship as you are.

Internalized white supremacy in a non-white body is some crazy stuff. And not that uncommon sadly.

Thank god one of these stories had a consequence!

The first time was just recently, right before Trump was elected. A crazy homeless person said it while I was on a walk with my husband. It dropped my stomach, but since the person was out of their mind, I kinda sorta was able to let it go.

Yep. They’re losing control all over the place and know what to blame: any policies that help out POC, the diversification of college and the workforce, identity studies programs and general education/awareness about structural inequality, PC politics (i.e. Common Decency), voting rights and civil rights legislation,…

They come hard for the teens too.

Twitter should have done this a year ago. I hate when people abdicate responsibility by hiding behind “our sacred free speech values.” You can’t show your tits on social media (NOT a government entity, BTW), but you can spread white nationalist terrorism. All these platforms are willing to endanger POC, women, and…

I think it’s white supremacy in its death throes too, but the risk is that they take the whole country down with them. It’s what they intend to do anyway.

Money. Power. Greed.
