To point out, the “think” can’t be understated. Because white working class in the Midwest voted for Obama in 2008, 2012 and voted for Sanders too. One was labelled a socialist. The other one is. They were both successful there.

Kevin Hart had to step down from an Oscars hosting gig because of his repeated insults and hostility against the LGBT community. Feigning apathy is not respectful. It was hypocritical gas lighting.

THIS. We’re in debt because we were told we need to go to the best schools/get the best professional degrees to create the intergenerational wealth that our parents/grandparents don’t have. Then we realize that wages/ COL haven’t adjusted to this promise, and many of us are even worse off than our parents. It’s…

Yep. For all the people retorting with Trump’s racist dirt, that’s not the point. He doesn’t care. The GOP doesn’t care. The point is to show that Democrats aren’t clean; the GOP doesn’t care how dirty their own party is.

I’m going to make a cheap plug for a deep dive I wrote in Current Affairs on this focusing on Black Milwaukeeans! https://www.currentaffairs.org/2018/10/the-color-of-economic-anxiety

And watch Dem centrist asswipes fall all over themselves to similarly disparage their rising base. I hope they (and the Republithugs) get primaried into space.

LISTEN. I was looked at funny just EXISTING at my PWI. And it was in mufugging Atlanta. I never saw random neighbors walk their dog or parlaying at our private campus.

Saw it last night. The show was incredible!

I super appreciate that.

And this ATLien also appreciates the Creflo handle

You are the kindest! Thank you so much.

Thank you!!

To be clear, under capitalism, most of us have some form of economic anxiety, and in certain swing states this absolutely held some sway.

Lol. Yeah she finally realized, after ohhhh 6 years of BLM and one botched answer, to come up with an adequate response. She can keep it. 

That’s a good point. I also think this was a stupid idea.

Something that I haven’t seen brought up for people who may say there’s also a “nude” version—the nude is actually a realistic beige and not white. If this is supposed to be an actual face, why isn’t the darker one brown? Very few dark faces are straight up black.

TOO SHORT

Love this piece Ashley!

It’s a beautiful city, just aesthetically speaking. And it feels like a lot of great American cities rolled into one. I’d tell any tourist to visit Chicago first before anywhere else (in the summer). It’s oddly underrated.

Hence my use of the phrase “inter-cultural.” There are still dominant cultures within the African Diaspora that, if they frequently “borrowed” from lesser-known cultures, it would give others pause. For instance, a black New Yorker finding random Houston subcultures to borrow from, would probably get heat, esp since…

I’m that friend too, which isn’t saying much bc the extent of my ratchetry is being from Atlanta (ratchet by default) and indulging in trash entertainment occasionally lol.
