Complaining about POC hurting your feelings because they made a statement about white people that didn’t specifically exclude you because you’re an “ally” doesn’t make you much of an ally, and honestly if that’s what you’re gonna do then we don’t want your allyship.

Then don’t read Deadspin. Stay off anything connected to Kinja. Or your social media sites, forget about those. Fuck it, stay off the internet. Don’t watch TV, don’t listen to the radio. Stay indoors, with noise cancelling headphones, in the bathroom, with the water running.

Then. Why. Are. You. Here?
If you want to drive yourself nuts, keep trying to please these people. They hate you and always will. Are you new here? The root? Literally every article/comment section is how shitty white people are. Move on with your life and enjoy yourself!
