To be honest, I am only just now figuring this out and I am not white. But since I don’t hold any of these prejudices against POC and immigrants specifically, I simply had no understanding of how centrally the preoccupation with “outsiders” was at the heart of American racism. Like, you know that white people hate

Your family, like most first and second generation Asian families, is probably not a representative sample because the vast majority emigrated to the U.S. under educational or job visas.

That’s weird because I’m usually replacing those who are usually white and have had a good career. I’m also in a career field that has a very, very low percentage of indians in it. Did you just automatically assume I was like an engineer or something?

I just...it’s like Ben Carson calling slaves “immigrants”. How do you forget the history of your ancestors (regardless of how long ago/removed you are) and not realize that the effects of racial discrimination from years past are STILL prevalent and affecting you?

Other then their last names you would actually not even know they were from a latino background. “Assimilated” as you would say. Environment and socio-economic background has over lapped over any racial identity they have/had.

Because they think that being the model minority gives them a seat at the white table. They yearn for white acceptance as ethnic peers.

This accusation is actually another attack against our intelligence agencies (like dismissing intelligence support that Russia hacked our election. Christ I can’t even believe that’s a real sentence I just typed) because if Obama were to order a wiretap on Trump, the FBI would have had to approve it, right? Ipso facto

I’m offended at the implication that Trump and Obama ever had a bromance.

Nothing will ever convince me that was not the case.

All I know about the marriage of J Timberlake and Jessica Biel is that apparently she hounded that guy until he would date her and that he was massively uninterested in getting married. That part is colored by gossip so it may need to be taken with a grain of salt but I remember reading some interview with Biel and

This is why White Feminism alienates so many women from feminism as a whole

Please don’t bother. Amy’s revival was petty and vindictive, literally 10 years too late, and nobody liked it. Thanks but no thanks.

Of course he is. Is that even supposed to be a secret?

His name is probably “Jawaun,” Juan for short.

Well I mean also the woman is dying so maybe just let the quibbling criticisms slide this one time.

This is such a ridiculous non defense it actually made me laugh in real life. I have no dog in this fight but why are people reaching so hard to find a way to excuse this woman’s behavior? Ridiculous.

While I surprisingly love Lorde’s music (popped up on one of my radio stations and turned out to be fire, I am a fan) Mother is Naomi Campbell. Why would anyone call Lorde “mom”?

“I’m so sorry that happened to you” and not “I’m so sorry I did that to you” is the distancing language of remorseless criminals everywhere.

I refuse to believe she can’t get hired at a supermarket.

Nicki directly acknowledges “ass shots” on like, multiple records, lol, I don’t think it’s supposed to be some kind of secret.
