I really loathe the coopting of feminism by women entrepreneurs who use it ONLY as a part of their branding and self promotion. Swift does the same thing, using it as a prop for her own gains. I’ve worked for a feminist entrepreneur who has been in the food industry for nearly 3 decades. She attracts hardworking, no…

i think it’s super fair to criticize the sort of apolitical, individualistic feminism that Swift has taken on. It seeks to “empower,” often through consumption or solipsistic acts. it turns inward and is the poison version of “the personal is the political.”

cant wait for taylor to go away forever

ok but they elected a celebrity

THANK YOU. Man, I got flamed hard the other day by the Jez Swiftys for suggesting that her racism and part-time feminism was still problematic.

Plus, really, Britney will never be accused to being “woke”. She’s got her kids, her Vegas show, and her Instagram account... really all she needs.

Rest assured that this is a well choreographed, multi-pronged, multi-media campaign that will endeavor to capitalize and comoditize on the positive vibe generated by her recent court appearances.

I don’t care how many savvy or stunts she employs, Taylor is the “all American family friendly role model” white feminist queen of hedging.

I literally never want to hear about the whole Kanye/Taylor song thing again. Everyone came off looking like an asshole in that situation.

Obviously.

I’m afraid she going to twist this narrative into making herself the victim again. I’m so tired of it y’all. So tired.

Jesus fucking christ, is his ex wife a 14 year old experiencing social media for the first time?

I hate this infographic. There is nothing at all paradoxical about the relationship between tolerance and intolerance. If tolerance refers to giving ideas thought before judgement, and intolerance is making snap negative judgements without any facts to back them, you see that the two concepts are fundamentally…

It’s not a paradox. It’s a matter of moderation. It’s also why we do, in fact, have restrictions on hate speech despite the First Amendment.

Perfect response. Fascism and Nazism are cancers, ignoring them or tolerating their rise will kill the country.

Honest question from a white guy who absolutely hates nazis: Is it white privilege to insist that nazis and the KKK be allowed to speak? I feel like this is something that only white people mew about. Personally, I would think that the very existence of the nazis and the KKK would be an incite to violence, as they…

That supercut of racist shit this guy has said made my stomach churn.

Jeffree Star is trash. That “apology” he made is a fucking joke.

i cannot stop laughing at this fucking screencap
