MRAs expect womenz to troll their sites the way they troll this one. They're under the delusion that the womenz actually want their attention, the way MRA trolls desperately try to get the attention of the womenz here.

Beautifully put. MRAs tend to be painfully insecure in their manhood, and they attack women in a pathetic attempt to feel better about themselves. I would feel sorry for them if they weren't such evil, hateful fucks.

While Boehm's words are ill-considered, they are obviously born of the frustration of having Manbook overwhelmed by women mistakenly attempting to procure the services of male escorts.

Perceived loss of social privilege.

The point is that there exists a double standard where people focus more on black criminals compared to white criminals and Kenya is pointing that out. Why hasn't Judd Appatow criticized Woody Allen? Why do people have no problem talking shit about Chris Brown but say little to nothing about Charlie Sheen? Being a…

Or they think that racism is/was a southern thing and outside of Cletus, Jed and Bubba, racism wasn't a thing in the north or on the coasts. MLK called Chicago the most segregated city he'd ever been in.

While white people and racists aren't synonyms, I think it's perfectly understandable that many people are directing their anger at white people in general rather than merely racists because white people created system which continues to benefit themselves and marginalizes POC, and while some progress has been made…

I don't understand the people who think it's reasonable to expect black (or any other oppressed group of) people to be polite about asking for their basic human rights.

That's the thing, we as a society have drastically different ideas on what constitutes "racism". When we're taught about racism, we're taught about slavery and the 3/5 a person bullshit and police violence (as a thing of the past, of course), and about how tragic and unjust it was up to and during the civil rights…

There's an article in this months (next month's ) smithsonian on king's legacy. And while I will not repost the full article here, this bit kills me:

I saw the film on Christmas Eve in Atlanta. There's a scene where a young Black protester is shot & killed by a state trooper, and my first thought was "it's been 50 years and nothing has changed. Absolutely nothing." Most White people don't walk around with "Niggers Go Home" signs and Confederate flags anymore,…

Out of curiosity, did people expect 12 Years a Slave to change things? I imagine that most (white) people would just think "My god, that's awful! But that was hundreds of years ago, good thing we aren't like that now." Even with Selma I imagine that people who are resistant to change will still think "That was decades…

I want to watch this but I'm not sure whether I can sit in the theatre with well-meaning white liberals and watch them still not get it.

It turns out a rather large swathe of white citizens actually do think racism, by-and-large, is a thing of the past. This is why it's almost impossible to have a "national dialogue" (ugh) on the subject. How can you when people's perceptions and opinions are so diametrically opposed to reality.

I think a lot of people are so invested in denying racism that no amount of facts, statistics or history will change their minds. Their denial is like a superstition in that reality can't touch it.

Yes and yes. When Glen Beck went on television and said it used to "suck" for black people but "it doesn't anymore", I remember thinking to myself what a fucking clown this guy is . It turns out a rather large swathe of white citizens actually do think racism, by-and-large, is a thing of the past. This is why it's…

it kills me that so many ppl go back to MLK Jr. : 'Well, if they were decent young men - like what MLK Jr. envisioned for black men - they wouldn't have got shot' without realizing that he himself - being the 'best black' was killed for fighting for his rights.

The fact that the whole fucking point of the marches was for the Voting Rights Act legislation and then to know how it was basically torn down earlier this year is beyond depressing.

It's chilling how similar the King-led civil rights movement is to the current black lives matter movement. It's almost as if we haven't made much of any progress as a country. Weird.
