It’s because, to white people, white is the default. It’s a non-category. It means “human being, not otherwise subcategorized.” White person = human being, no race.

This is the part that burns me up. Discuss Kaep, BLM, anything and the inevitable questions is “Well why isn’t anyone talking about black on black crime?” And a simple Google search can turn up tons of marches and conferences in the black community on this very subject.

Didn’t see ‘son of a bitch’ in there, either. Interesting, that.

I think many people who call Milo and Ben Shapiro white supremacists and Nazis have never actually listened to a full interview by either one of them.

I can point to the exact moment that I stopped playing fantasy football, and it was exactly five seconds after my first thought upon seeing that Adrian Peterson had been arrested for beating his child was “Oh, I wonder how many weeks I’ll have to change my lineup.” I’ve had many shameful moments in my life, and that…

I know. Fuck’s sake. Sherman isn’t wrong about this, and we ALL do it. My first reaction too was “oh fuck there goes my #1 pick” but after a moment a normal human being should be able to step back and go “fuck im a monster”

Now that I’m finally free of all this dehumanizing nonsense, I’ve found that I can enjoy the game so much more again, even as I try my best to be as open-eyed as possible to the larger long-term risks this silly (and often fun as fuck) game places on these amazing athletes.

He is giving football fans way too much credit. They didn’t give a shit about injured players way before fantasy became a thing.

We need to get back to not caring about injured players as people because they’re not on a team we latched onto due to the happenstance of the region we were born in/bandwagon we arbitrarily hopped on, eschewing all others because we cannot vicariously feel elation and a sense of self-worth in their wins.

BLM has been pointing out the mistreatment of minorities by the very people that are suppose to be helping protect everyone. Which has absolutely nothing to do with your graph. Try and wrap your racist pea-brain around that idea. Good luck.

“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”

The core of every privilege is not having to think about it. Glad we all get to break that.

Unfortunately, we still need this today.

I’m a white lady. You can call me racist a thousand times a day and I won’t stop fighting for equality and justice in this country.

If you don’t care about Black people being killed by cops and the cops getting away with it, then yeah, you’re probably a racist.

That kid needs a beating.

Information regarding the existence and necessity of this book should be part of the curriculum of every grade school child in the United States, to help counter the blatant disinformation about this country’s racist history (and present) being peddled to young people by the likes of Tomi Lahren and her ilk.

I was just talking with my father in law last month, after he drove from California to Virginia in one go, with no breaks. To me, this was insane, and I told him so. But for him it was a habit ingrained from his youth. He told me about the state of travel for black folk in the 50s, when he grew up, and how his family…

Sports Illustrated effectively erased Kaepernick from the “discussion” by omitting him from its latest cover (while making some empty whitebread statement about “Sports United”). That’s a pretty clear indication of how “the establishment” has decided to spin the Take a Knee movement.

Thank you so much for posting this. This is the exact kind of thing that white privilege lets you live your entire life and not even think about.
