I think the answer you provide is comprehensive: “Queen Sugar unapologetically centers blackness against a beautiful Southern backdrop rarely seen on television. A show that deftly interrogates toxic masculinity, black-vs.-white wealth and black activism...”

So the takeaway here is that white people have a word which means something endearing in one context and demeaning in another.

So I don’t blame the author of the original comment for speaking in the broad strokes that no one ever likes to talk about and I don’t blame any black woman for being

So, women can selfishly shit on people to enrich themselves just as well as men. Equality!

There’s a bit more to the story than that.

White women are this odd combination of oppressed and privileged. Patriarchy gives them both and I have to think it’s maddening for them. Which isn’t to excuse them, I just think it explains things.
