I DON’T NEED WHITE WOMEN TO TELL ME THAT I SHOULD BE TREATED AS YOUR EQUAL, IDIOT. YOU are the one obsessed with white people. I don’t have to bring them up to discuss the issues within our community. You know that wanting equality at home and at work, safety, and respect are not white things? You clearly don’t…

Lol, nobody said anybody is in a conspiracy. And if you think calling for Black women to be treated better “devalues the lives” of Black men, I feel very sorry for you. I can’t imagine how it feels to believe that equality and safety for the women who look just like your mother, your sister, etc. is that dangerous for…

Wanting equality for all woman is not oppressive to POC.

So you gonna blame all that one feminism instead of the true culprit, white supremacy? You focusing on demonizing feminism has you overlooking the system that oppresses black men and women. Do you know black women go to prison too? That black women also get murdered by the police and that cop will also go free?

What is that rule? The one that says that any comment section in an article on feminism is proof that feminism is still needed?

Nice to know that according to your worldview, a black man telling/showing other black men how they fail black women is considered anti-black male.

It also goes into this constant thing that mostly upper class white people are always “discovering” something.…

It’s funny when a food or drink you’ve had your entire life becomes trendy. I’m Korean and grew up in SoCal, so I’ve had boba my whole life. The people that used to make fun of me for eating kimchi and boba are probably the same girls instagramming that shit now.
