How white men commit atrocity after atrocity and how white supremacy excuses their behavior
On Tuesday, March 16, 2021, Robert Aaron Long murdered eight people in three separate locations in Atlanta, Georgia. Six of the eight people murdered were of women of Asian descent. This act of racist violence comes after a year-long tirade of Anti-Asian/ comments towards Asian people leading to a spike in hate crimes against them to rise 150%. This shooting is absolutely tragic, but it was 100% preventable. …
The rest of us are not so lucky
While millions of Americans stood in food bank lines, cried over loved ones lost to COVID-19, and lamented over exorbitant medical bills that can’t afford, Kim Kardashian West celebrated her 40th birthday in style at The Brando Resort in Tahiti. Kim every so humbly expressed her gratitude at being able to hold such an event during a global pandemic, saying as such on her Twitter account:
A poem of the Black-American experience.
black.
cramped on ships
stung by whips
prayers pressed through lips
black.
never see home again
a new land filled with hateful men
your skin already condemned
black.
your body does not belong to you
forget everything you ever knew
all of the others are hurting too
black.
bodies for sale
are you strong or frail
they took all the healthy males
black.
english beaten into your mind
our bondage was designed
on our suffering, they dined
black.
daughters raped
can we escape
families forever reshaped
black.
one hundred years pass.
black.
another hundred…
The protests against social distancing guidelines are the embodiment of white privilege. Here’s why:
The quarantine protests that are happening here in America have two things in common: They’re overwhelmingly white and full of misinformation.
Wisconsin, Washington state, Utah, Ohio, Michigan, Colorado, and Minnesota have been littered with protests over the past few days. The messages of the demonstrations range from business owners who want their businesses to open so they can make money, people angry at the state government for “overstepping”, and general anti-vaxxer rhetoric against a COVID-19 vaccine/cure.
Everyone is upset right now. I don’t know of a single person that’s not pissed off at the state that America is right now…
The protests against the closures brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic are dangerous displays of selfishness and privilege
Americans all across the U.S. are protesting for their state governments to re-open all businesses that were closed because of the threat COVID-19 presents.
Let me say that again:
Americans are protesting against being instructed to stay home because they believe their rights are being violated. What rights? Apparently, the protesters want the right to get infected and die during a pandemic.
The protestors quarrel should be and is with the federal government for not efficiently providing relief funds to the millions of people that need it. People are scared that they won’t be able to provide for their families…
This global pandemic will prevent the systems in place globally from going “back to normal”
Coronavirus. The virus that’s sweeping the globe, shutting down city after city and country after country wherever it shows up. K-12 schools are being canceled indefinitely, and college courses are all moving to the online option. Everyone is being told to stay home, businesses everywhere are taking a massive profit loss, and millions are uncertain of their future post-quarantine. The death toll of Coronavirus has now surpassed 7,500 people. The number of people infected jumps higher every single day with no slowing in sight, now up to a whopping 248,683 infected persons. …
How have black people have been deemed as inferior by white supremacy while being interwoven in the personal lives of white people?
The services ‘provided’ by black people via enslavement have always been an integral part of the progression of white societies around the globe. Black people being held as slaves is what made America as prosperous as it is today. Two hundred fifty years of free labor will do that. These services, however, move past the manual labors of carpentry, building, and masonry.
Slaves were intimately involved in the lives of their masters and their master’s families. It is peculiar that enslaved black people were always seen as lesser than white masters, yet, played such an essential role in their personal…
How white supremacist’s historical lust for global power is their present-day undoing
There is this idea in white supremacist circles that white people are being ‘forced’ to mesh with non-white cultures. This is resulting in the shrinking of the ‘purely white’ population of white people. These are a collection of memes made about the topic for better understanding the point of the movement.
