So you’re a “kid” at 30 when you’re yt but an adult at 14 when you’re black. Got it.

I stopped using the word woke. I realize that one, it's culturally appropriated from Black people and two, I realized that I don't know what it really means because of that; not what white people have made it to mean.

The way you speak about Black men and Black women tells me everything I need to know about you from your fragility and insecurity down to your mediocrity.

ws can’t force me to like anyone I don’t like which I know enrages half of America.

My fellow white people,

You need to step it up. Time is almost run out.

White people need to talk to other white people. It is entirely up to the whites to move the needle on their end.

Let me be clear: racism and antisemitism are rampant on *both* sides of the aisle.

Your twentysomething niece has fallen for the okie doke just as easily as your Boomer uncle.

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.

White is not the default. In fact, it's a minority.

...eradicate those who aren't like them as they are a threat to their survival. Black people descendents from Africa & black Africans are the only 100% pure Homo Sapiens.

Also, white people get lice 30% more often than anyone else.

I've had a theory about white people for about a year now. If you're white, you're not 100% Homo Sapien. You have 2-4% Neanderthal DNA. A type of human that was bigger, stronger & much more aggressive. I think that DNA makes white people inherently aggressive & violent and feeds the need to...

When I posted a meme saying that we should support Tish James like we did Jimmy Kimmel, heaps of white people began attacking me. Not on Twitter, here on BlueSky. A whole bunch of guilt ridden, hit dogs came here to holler. The problem with America is that racism survives progressivism.

The fact that white nationalists feel a need to make a halftime show just for them communicates clearly that they understand safe spaces. They just don’t want anyone they deem “other” to have one.

Safety for me, not for thee. In that regard, they sure got the “All-American” part right.

We started a movement during the first term called BLM. And y’all villainized our methods. Said we went too far. Even though it was proven the violence was outside actors.

So, since you got your degree. And you think you know everything. LEAD!

A Black child’s meltdown is seen as aggression 😕
A white child’s meltdown is seen as a cry for help 🙂‍↔️
This double standard costs lives, opportunities, and dignity.
Listen to Black autistic voices.

Let's be clear on who Christopher Columbus was, a conquerer who spread disease & slavery who was so sadistic in the ways he treated natives he appalled the architects of the Spanish Inquisition. That's the fact of him there is to reclaim.

My fellow white people,

Here's a super easy way to get started on becoming a better person. It will provide you with so much important STARTING information on things you might bother a Black person with. It's not their job to teach, it's OUR job to learn. Resources are everywhere from Black people.
