gritting my teeth as "sandy hook was staged" marjorie "jewish space lasers" taylor "christchurch was an inside job" greene "white genocide conspiracy theorist" starts posting things that people largely agree with, and I have to deal with people saying "she makes sense though" as if she didn't spend the last ten years being one of the scummiest fucking people on the goddamn planet

u do not ever, under any circumstances, have to give it to mtg.

Something I think about a lot is when dj khaled spent a day lost at sea on a jet ski literally just because he drove away and got lost and started live posting about it and as he got increasingly panicked he started making like inspirational insta stories about his opps wanting him to fail even though he was entirely responsible for the situation and just started saying shit like “they don’t want you to WIN. they don’t want you to get found when you’re lost at sea in the dark”

like how the fuck are we meant to get anywhere if when you mention v-coding the overwhelming response is "well if they didn't wanna get violently raped they shouldn't have broken the law"

Especially when that law is something like "Don't be trans." Or just a good prosecutor taking over a case and making their money's worth from whoever has a bone to pick with some random trans woman.

just learned that my friend’s sister likes to learn what cologne her boyfriends’ dads wear and then buy it and layer it with her perfume when they’re having sex to create a Freudian effect. omg

All USAmerican citizens benefit from imperialism and if you think your minority is exempt you’re a chauvinist. Every USAmeicans no matter how marginalized and systemically impoverished they are still benefit from an economy that build off the suffering of the imperial periphery. The basic infrastructure is build off the exploitation of the imperial periphery, every commodity sold is based of the exploitation of the imperial periphery. It is so fundamentally baked into American society that simply by existing in this land you are given major benefits that most of the world is simply not afforded. There is a reason so many refugees across the world seek refuge in America, it’s not because of grand ideas like freedom or equality or any other nonsense pushed by American mythos, it’s because simply existing here gives incredible material benefit. If you do not understand this you are a chauvinist.

Who exactly did you write this for? Do you mean to say you’re sitting here in Trump America fuckery PT 2 telling a bunch of people of color that they are one with the machine? Do understand your talking to the people who actually built America and whose blood and bones cement the greater evils of this empire? You’re really going to tell the defendants of people who were enslaved and treated as property and their children and their children too. People who had no where else to go when their freedom was assured mostly to break support for the confederacy. That spend the last century barely getting to a second class citizenship to this day. How dare they benefit from the blood of their own people? Which actually really meant the machine oppressing them. They didn’t ask to be here and they’ve spent generations since getting freedom trying to find a place people won’t lynch them at will. I grew up in the south, black people here didn’t benefit like white people neither do they up here in the north. Here you are saying this shit while indigenous people are terrorfied to leave the US because border patrol or customs might not let them back into the US because they look “mexican” to them and refuse to recognize tribal iDs as valid. People who walk down streets naked after the men that butchered their culture and court houses named after the evil men that mastermind their removal and betrayal of treaties. People that are lucky if they’re allowed in the white towns and cities with those street names because some places you still disappear for being native. You’re going to tell them this shit? Peopke who’s grandparents and great grandparents were stolen off to schools were white people tortured them if they acted like themselves or spoke their own language. You need to get a whole hell of a lot clearer if you’re talking about white people with some marginalized status. There’s so many people that suffered no matter which President was in charge but under Trump people are starting to lynch people again openly, lots of places they were still lynching people quiet like. You’re sitting here all pendantic as these people are being lined up for the slaughter or some ducked up enslavement or both. “Now remember you benefited…” mother fucker these people are in real danger right now. Been in danger and they don’t need some asshole spitting on them right before they get dragged behind some redneck’s truck. That happened where I grew up 20-30 years ago in the 90s. They dragged that black dude until his head got sliced off when it hit something on the side of the road. They never stopped some poor black kid in the early 2000s around 2010 got the shit kicked out of him found dead rolled up in gym mats at school. Local white authorities said it was obviously an accident. I saw the images his face was unrecognizable. Sure maybe that kid had a cheaper set of sneakers and his family got cheaper prices on food but don’t you tell minorities here they’re anything like white people here. Have you ever had a man in his sixties call you boss when you’re not even ten? Have you experienced full grown elders deferred to you just because of racism? These people ain’t living it up like the majority here. Open a damn history book before you try to group them in with the white people here. I get it you hate Americans. Who can blame you but learn the damn difference from a rich person of color and the vast majority of them here. By the way no one here will understand chauvinism correctly so just say nationalism or jingoism.
