I wouldn’t capitalize him, either. A little man requires little print (e e cummings is an exception).

If the GOP and their supporters have an issue with being perceived as racist, (as well as misogynistic, homophobic, transphobic, as greedy oppressors of the poor and disabled, and all-around champions of white Christian supremacist Biblical patriarchy) maybe it’s time for conservatives and libertarian sympathizers to…

Hate to break it to you, but that’s on her (Tami), not on the commenter mentioning the identity that has already been revealed by someone else. I have no more sympathy for her than I do for Richard Spencer when he got punched in the face for spewing his neo-Nazi garbage to the public. If Becky didn’t want to be…

True, but Clinton won white women with college degrees by 52 percent. White women without college degrees went for Trump by 61 percent. In other words, there’s a sharp divide between how educated and uneducated white women perceived Clinton and Trump. Uneducated white women went for Trump by such wide margins that…

Kind of makes you wish people hadn’t gone all in on calling Romney and every other major GOP candidate a racist before the real one showed up.

Yeah, growing up in a midwestern town I experienced most racism from teachers/coaches/medical professionals etc. because these people want to keep the status quo and keep people in their appropriate “rank”. It bothers white people in authority positions when a minority doesn’t fit their proper racial stereotype, which…

Her profession doesn’t surprise me. It’s like cops being racist towards black people. Their line of work put them in contact with a disadvantaged minority so they take that and extrapolate to the whole group. This lady probably thinks that as she works with people struggling with English she is superior in some way;…

The things I have heard teachers say to and about children are not super great. I’m glad you became a teacher and can give students a more positive experience.

Dude, am the only “minority” in my Master’s program. We have a mix of teachers, social workers, and npo therapists and be quite honest some of them are...uhm...fuckwits? These people decide whether you get to keep your child, teach your kids, or work with seriously at risk populations. Half voted for the racist…

I rarely capitalize trump, but I do it because he’s not worth the effort to hit the shift key.

Can confirm the racism.

These kinds of people who become teachers use their positions of authority to justify their racism (confirmation bias), and ad opportunities for micro aggression towards their students.

Don’t let someone’s line of work fool you into thinking they care about the people and clients they serve. I worked for a nonprofit that provide free services to indigent individuals and you will not believe how many super Conservatives who hated poor people worked there. One of my coworkers used to drone on about how…

I don’t know why but I just had a vision of a man shouting: “We’re all on the same sinking ship now motherfuckers!!!” And laughing like mad.  

+ voter suppression. This was the first federal election without a full Voting Rights Act in decades. Not shocking we find ourselves back in 1960.

Nope. That would explain why people supported an actual populist, not a corrupt, racist, billionaire conman. People had and have legitimate reasons to be upset with the Democrats, who have definitely been far too attentive to the preferences of the wealthiest members of society. But that’s hardly a reason to vote for…

2.8 million. Never forget. Never let the assholes claiming a “mandate” forget.

Don’t forget: 53% OF WHITE WOMEN VOTED TRUMP.

That’s true, but without all of the racists, I don’t think Russia would have been able to influence the election at all. Donald was such a garbage candidate, it shouldn’t have been possible to drag him across the finish line.

We have Trump because America has a bunch of racist assholes who are willing to screw themselves over economically just to fuck over people of color? Yeah, that sounds right.
