A Black woman named Aliyah was struggling to find work. So, she catfished herself and made a fake profile on LinkedIn named "Emily." Emily had the same qualifications as Aliyah but received 57.9% of interview invites while Aliyah received 8.9%

A big misconception about Greenland is that since it’s labeled a Danish colony, its residents are just a bunch of white dudes named Kristian—which is extremely harmful and inaccurate.

The population is 85% Indigenous! It belongs to the Kalaallit people, not to Denmark and CERTAINLY not to the U.S.

elon musk’s “intent” in his gesture is unknowable and uninteresting. what is important is who felt validated and who felt violated when they saw it, and whether he made any effort to clarify or invalidate those responses. he did not. thats the game they play every time.

Hi you don’t have to post it. And you don’t have to re-post it.

And you can think about the fact that Jewish people are gonna be traumatized every single time you make us see it over and over and over and over.

You can just not post it.

It's not propaganda whenever an American sees another country's sort of functional health system and looks at their own saying "what the fuck." It's not propaganda to just HAVE functional public transit. These are literally things other countries have that we don't. That's just life.
