You think I am racist for admitting that I don’t really dwell on my own race? Right after making a comment that you can’t stand hearing white people discuss racism.

Oh for fuck’s sake FOCUS YOUR RAGE MORE APPROPRIATELY, YOU GODDAMNED NITWITS. Yes, by all means, let’s further fracture ourselves by playing More Woke Than Thou on the internet against anyone who supports the same causes we do but does so in a way that makes us roll our eyes slightly. That sure is productive! Clearly…
One of the saddest things I get from this is that everything is now a “brand”. All of life has been redefined into social and financial currency. Glad I’m old.
I think it’s because of the self congratulatory statements made by Nazi guys on Friday- basically a “women who didn’t want to fuck you will fuck you now”. I think a large number of women who read that thought “eeeeuw. No.”.
My two cents: I don’t think white women should be making this about them, or considering themselves victims of this rally (aside from, of course, literal victim Heather Heyer & anyone injured in Charlottesville this weekend).
I do think that toxic masculinity contributes to white supremacy, and that feminism (and…
So forgive my going into a story, but I don’t know that you can understand quite what it is like being white if you don’t understand how we can be blind to our own existence.
I feel the need to point out that taken in context, what Lauren Duca was pointing out was the white supremacist patriarchy, not to say that white women are victims of it, but to point out the different ways in which racism can manifest according to patriarchy. Patriarchy and racism go hand in hand - if you read/look…
I’m confused about how to voice my feelings as a Jew and granddaughter of holocaust survivors throughout this era of increasingly vocal neo Nazi insanity- I see the chants against me and hear alt right assholes threatening me, and I feel victimized. I am not brown or black, but I am not immune. I’m not trying to bend…
There is nothing wrong with Lauren’s tweet. There is nothing wrong with pointing out the intersection of maleness and whiteness in the alt-right any more than it would be wrong for us to point out the intersection of maleness and whiteness in the Google memo...
That is the point of intersectionality. At no point does…
Yes white women are really the problem.
This is exactly like the change from “dieting” to “wellness”. Same patriarchal bullshit— new postmillennial label.
IMO “anti-aging” is a scam. Use sunscreen, live a healthy lifestyle, and the rest is genetics. Also wtf is wrong with aging? Everybody does it. Worrying about getting wrinkles will MAKE you get wrinkles.
You put oil on your skin and it definitely looks smoother than if you don’t, but there’s nothing that will make a 40-year-old look like a 20-year-old except possibly winning the genetic lottery.
I saw a great meme about people who hate participation trophies getting mad that their’s were being taken down (referring to monuments for the side that lost the Civil War).
“You are literally the person in the photo.”

Isn’t at-will employment great, alt-right guys?
Snowflakes are white. Never forget that.
“Welcome to the Department of Justice!”
Shonda’s shows are a good match for Netflix. Scandal is a perfect example of a show I would never tune in weekly for, but will binge watch while drunk.
