Sure, in the same way that a joke showing the power dynamic between blacks and whites at the expense of whites is funny, but at the expense of blacks isn’t. Making fun of the power dynamic IS the joke. Reversing the genders would remove the humor.

Incorrect. He will shoulder the fines, or stage a bankruptcy, or anything else if it's cheaper than actually doing the ethical thing. If he complies with the law at all, it's strategic

The young white transplants in NYC do the same. Luckily there are always some older/more accustomed to city living who give a shit

Strollers are the fucking devil, to be fair. Except for the little cloth ones for toddlers that fold up like beach chairs, the standard stroller nowadays is built like fucking Range Rover.

They’ll let you sit - but they’ll make you stand there awkwardly UNTIL YOU ASK LIKE YOURE THE RUDE ASSHOLE, NOT THEM

I HATE that argument against drinking milk/dairy. Dairy and egg consumption is one of the smartest things us humans ever came up for nutrition and sustainability. Yeah, no other animals do it... but then no other animals built rocket ships, study Mars or have writing systems either.

Me too - can’t drink milk or yogurt - cheese very rarely - due to a skin condition. Coconut milk for me :-)

I guess it’s something they do for girls in dance classes? The little girls have one day when they dress like whatever princess they want for a party? For dance class? I really don't know. There was some story on here writing about it as if EVERYONE knew about it, people were reminiscing about their ‘Princess Day’

:-D lol

And yet we will put a bunch of anarchist gun nuts on the nightly news for one month straight while they launch their fantasy war on the US government, but we won’t even cover hundreds of Sioux who might not have a legal claim but represent the complex history of this country and the way it’s taken over the land of

I’m not so sure they knew at the time where there buriel ground was, as they had been displaced, borders of their own land allocated to them in dispute.

Mister access, ha! He doesn't even have a name! I love it. And your kid you can call Kathrynite... Like they're all just cutesy little extensions of yourself! Hahaha

Makes a total ton of fucking sense. I think that’s why we not only don’t hear from native americans, but also why the whole coverage on Black Lives Matters is so screwed up - because even just admitting there’s a problem requires a whole lot of empathy that mainstream media, and white middle class audiences (for the

A friend of mine was out west already when the protests started. She joined them about two weeks ago.

Haha!

I said the same thing - what can corporate-apologist xenophobes make fun of that doesn’t end up sounding inherently mean?
