Nope.

They haven’t even lost that much power though, which is confusing and terrifying that when instead of owning 100% of things, they own 98% and lose their minds.

That’s pretty much the line of 90% of the greys and I expect more to come streaming on in over the weekend, lol. Michael never fails to give folks a case of the vapors. He could and should be hired on by a university to teach a doctorate class on how to make hit dogs holler in under 1000 words.

You don’t understand. They voted for Obama twice. Why isn’t that enough for you people? 

This sounds like where I work. A place that has changed my title and put me into an outpost office while all the white folks stay in the main office and discuss equity and diversity in education. I’m so over this sh*t

White folks really need to stop getting the idea that they are the best allies ever, because they seem to forget being an ally also means being vigorously and repeatedly challenged, questioned and not trusted. And there are no fucking headpats, cookies or chin rubbings.

I think you seriously underestimate the hatred and violence that white people are capable of, especially when challenged.

And I’d like to believe that if horses had wings, they would fly.

Is this your way of saying “not all white people”??

Then why do you ask?? FYI, virulent racism is not diluted by wealth,  it just becomes more stealthy.  

Nah, I think change can come quickly, but there needs to be A LOT of work to get shit done. Blacks and Latinos have shown themselves willing to put in this work, but they (we) need strong allies. If there’s one thing wypipo hate, though, it’s work. Look at 2010, and the abandonment of the Obama coalition by Leftist…

Full confession: I am a white male. But I don’t fuck with Splinter, except to mock them in the comments. They’re chock full of people who attended a Bernie rally once in college and now they won’t accept any other points of view.

I’m white, so take my words with the grain of the whitest salt.

Splinter a bunch of white boys that are afraid to enter this domain.

I feel like evacuation plans, including where to move them to, should already be in place. Not like natural disasters are a new thing. 

That is not the prisoner’s problem and shouldn’t be put on them by the state by merely abandoning them to the dangers of a hurricane. If you lock someone up you’re responsible for their well being period. You don’t get to decide that their lives aren’t worth protecting from natural disaster. All those motherfuckers…

Also Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans, the existence of which is still something of a fever dream.

Yeah, I mean, who wouldn’t want to be trapped in a tiny room as water rushes in?

There are plenty of countries, like Brazil and South Africa, with large populations of mixed-race people and histories of virulent racism. Having sex with people has never equated to respecting their essential humanity, at least not on this planet. As a person of mixed heritage I just get irritated with movies like…

Her child is presented as a triumphant way to repair the mistakes of her mother before her and a victory against Hitler’s policy of forcibly sterilizing black Germans: this mixed baby will show the world what she could not.
