Is it just me or have they deliberately darkened the image to make her look Blacker?

Hard pass.

Look what you made Kim do.

I posted on their article about Swift today regarding Taylor’s strange habit of shitting on PoCs compared to her silence on the Far Right (many of whom adore her) to see what they’d say.

I’ve noticed the loss of WOC commenters on the Jez who have taken up residency here on the Root. WONDER WHY.

I can’t quit it. And I can’t quit putting those assholes in their places. But man, my favorite thing is reading about the same event in both places. It’s such a hilarious mind-fuck.

There’s something sadly hilarious on a site that has a readership where some race to jump down people’s throats the moment they say something that isn’t entirely supportive of “The Sisterhood” but throw other minorities under the bus when their own flaws are called out.

You don’t have to take Kanye’s side to detest the White Woman victimhood and fragility Swift has used to her advantage for years. Taylor Swift playing those types of games are harmful in their own way just as Kanye’s misogyny and general bullshit are harmful.

And if you get to your wits end ... call 1-800-273-8255. Your life is precious.

She is playing the victim about valid criticisms about herself. None of those criticisms involve her assualt and almost all of them were made way before the assault even happened.

But she really isn’t she still is playing the victim

This is only “dark” to the crowd that thought going to hot topic to buy a sweeny todd hoodie was trasngressive. (yeah, i went to high school in the late aughts.)

This song doesn’t reference that though. This song references the Kayne song about which she definitely played the victim.

No; I didn’t know what you meant. Now I do and see that we agreed on the primary point, a point that you clarify further here. In this country that is founded on anti-blackness, the plight of black people epitomizes the function of white supremacy and so by fighting for my people here in this country specifically, I…

Yeah, me too.

No Law Enforcement didn’t just screw up, they were COMPLICIT:

Because daddy and granddaddy could be as mediocre and openly racist as they wanted to be while still getting ahead and they can’t. They’ve spent their entire lives hearing about the good ole days (because the moderate/liberal white who isn’t racist and hates racism so much, but doesn’t have the balls to call their…

Absolutely. You’re right. Doxxing is dangerous. I mean it literally when I say that this is not doxxing. This is a more effective version of milk cartons and wanted posters. This isn’t trying to root out the identity of someone who anonymously said some shit you didn’t like online. These pictures aren’t being posted…

I’m not convinced “too much head” is ever a situation this piece of human garbage has ever had to deal with.

It needs to be stressed that this wouldn’t have happened without crowd-sourcing his identity. The Cville police have made no effort to investigate these people. Every single arrest has come only because private citizens have identified these people and assembled evidence themselves.
