Also lost in the jbouie attack is how journalists of color have been PUSHED OUT of newsrooms poverty the last decade, and all the DEI hires of 2020 are now being fired.
Lost in this conversation is that a shade over 1 in 14 of all journalists nationwide work for the NYT, and the industry has been looking for any pretext to replace columnists with bigoted chatbots. I'd rather have someone like jbouie at the Op-Ed desk even if the broader org is dogshit, personally
And again I say. White people are desperately trying to recreate online their offline life of segregated neighborhoods, jobs, etc. Black ppl shouldn't be on BlueSky and Black ppl shouldn't be working at the NYT, we have to know our place. At Walmart serving white folks!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“Structural racism stops mattering at all when I’m mad at one of the only Black guys in my digital neighborhood” seems to be the take from a lot of white trans “leftists” here
After a week of training I’m realizing again if I’ve got no structure or schedule to bounce off of then I’ve got nothing. lol. Left to my own devices I’ll do Jack shit all day but get lost in my head. I need to give myself a schedule outside of work. Or in other words schedule a life for myself
And when they do this to a Black person it just triggers “how dare one of them be better off than me” energy; amazing when confronted with this that the same people with such a supposedly unrelenting class analysis have no racial one whatsoever
A lot of white people very obviously jumped directly over unpacking their mainstream American racist upbringing and going right into online leftist super soldier.
So many folks on the left have convinced themselves they are ANTIFA or some shit so THERES NO WAY they could in fact be racist. Racism is an issue on the left that will never be addressed because a lot of y’all think you are morally superior. You ain’t.
Black people have been forced to morally compromise ourselves for survival working for companies that at best don’t like us since slavery ended. There is no place you can work that’s 100% pure
Nope, just the Black ones!!! The white ones like Taylor Lorenz who openly harass Black women and uses dead nonbinary children as a crowbar to force more engagement metrics get to chill out and have a good time!!!!!!
What, you think they're gonna go after their daddies and mommies? The various church pastors who fucked them up? Their former teachers? Please. White ppl protect each other from the consequences of whiteness, including transphobia. They're just kill Black & indigenous ppl like they do
This is why I don't trust white trans people who say things like "death to cis people."Because they're *never* talking about white cis people when they say that.
Be it BlueSky, Threads, or Mastodon/the fediverse, white people have been *desperately* trying to recreate their offline segregated lives. They're still so DEEPLY resentful that Twitter gave Black voices a weight that didn't quite exist before & they'll be damned if they let it happen again
The reason why white folks got so hype about Twitter "alternatives" is because they thought they finally wouldn't have to share digital space with Black people anymore. And they're so mad it didn't work out that way.
Turned rampage on figured I’d watch and then go back and play back the first half I missed.
First guy I see is Jericho. Absolutely not.
I’m not seeing that man more than the 2 times I have to. I’m good. Lmao.
I know a lot of white Americans keep calling Twitter the Nazi bar and lament people still on the app, but Twitter has been integral to the current Kenyan protests. the individualist approach of leaving and judging everyone who remains doesn't do anything.
Check this from Rolling Stone. At this point, I enjoy rap as an art form a lot, but am not heavily invested in pop culture, but I'm handing Kendrick the victory on this. He dethroned the abuser Drake successfully, & his music is inspiring Kenyan popular resistance. @wagatwe.com
According to Reddit Flair is a daily drunk at a bar under his condo he lives at in downtown tampa. he apparently fell down and scraped his knees on the sidewalk recently in a drunken stupor.
He hasn’t been on AEW since Sting retired and according to SRS there’s no plans for him. Which is good!
Man I taught myself an excel trick in this training class they didn’t even know how to do lol. Just got annoyed cause I’m like WTF I ain’t filling in these god damn blanks one by one 😭
I bought an aeropress XL and it has no flow control cap so you have to brew it upside down and flip it over or else it’ll drip too early.
Definitely feels like a very Ricochet or Ospreay way to make a cup of coffee 🤼
It’s so easy to trick people into changing the subject. You just substitute a word and watch people slide down the wrong path. Rabbit season, duck season.
The issue isn’t his “age” the issue is his cognitive ability.
